Where to Protect

In accordance with LPZ concept, each and every incoming and out going
metallic service line from a building MUST be protected to preserve the
required LPZ

Transients enter buildings via metallic conductors

Through both underground and overhead cables

Protect all cables which enter or the leave building

Protect critical equipment locally

From switching transients created internally

Different systems require different protectors – a mains protector cannot protect a

telephone or signal line
