Schneider Electric applies Aenor regulations to its iMSU permanent surge coils to ensure safety

Schneider Electric has incorporated UNE EN regulations 50550 all of its devices intended to protect against permanent surges (Pop) in order to ensure its quality, safety and reliability.

Schneider Electric has adapted its iMSU permanent surge coils with its product's Aenor certification and Combined Combi SPU Surge Protection. The objective of this action is to incorporate UNE EN regulations 50550 in all of its protection against permanent surges.

With this new standard, sets a characteristic curve of progressive stress shooting / time and there is also a time of non-response to prevent unwanted actions.

The highlights are the inclusion of a new scope: domestic and similar facilities; establishing a progressive tension firing curve / time and the need for the permanent surge protector to always be associated with the main cutting element of the facility (mainly for the performance and disconnection on the general automatic switch). At last, as a working principle, does not allow the use of ground leakage or imbalance.

This regulation was published in 2012 and aims to regulate the design of equipment intended for protection against temporary or permanent surges.
