Frequently asked questions (FAQ).

Lightning Arrestors
lightning protector Unfortunately, electrical systems tend to attract lightning.  This tendency can often destroy components in a renewable energy system, leading to costly repairs and unpredictable power outages.  Protect your investment from the hazards of nature with a lightning arrestor on the DC and AC circuits of your renewable energy system.
Specifications
Use a lightning arrestor to protect the AC and DC circuits of a photovoltaic or wind energy installation from lightning strikes.  Three wires make installation quick and simple, while rugged electronic components can handle an infinite number of "surges".
