How surge protection works
Six thousand volts in. A clear line out.
- 01A strike lands two kilometres away
The current spreads through the ground and couples into nearby supply and data lines. Thousands of volts travel towards your building in microseconds.
- 02The protector conducts to earth
Inside a Clearline protector, components that are normally idle switch on in nanoseconds and divert the surge current to the earth conductor.
- 03Your equipment sees a clear line
The voltage that gets through is held below what the equipment can withstand. When the surge has passed, the protector returns to standby.

Protection zoning
Switch on each layer. Watch the strike.
A building is protected in zones, from the roof inwards. Each layer handles what the one before it lets through. Turn them on and off to see why one protector on its own is rarely enough.
