Type 2 Surge Protection Device


Designed to limit transient overvoltage’s, diverting the surge current to earth, limiting potential damage to any connected electrical equipment and electrical wiring.


Suitable For:


• Ensuring longevity of home appliances, entertainment systems, and smart home devices


• Protecting sensitive electronic equipment, IT networks, server rooms, and security systems


• Protects the internal/external wiring infrastructure of the building


• Reduces the risk of electric shock hazards due to overvoltages


Suitable For:


• Older homes, loft conversions, and concealed wiring installations


• Hotels, hospitals, schools, and care homes where fire prevention is critical


• Timber-structured buildings, like Log cabins, heritage sites, and wooden- framed buildings where fire risks are higher


• Mandatory for 1: Higher risk residential buildings (HRRB) 2: Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO) 3: Purpose built student accommodation 4: Care homes


• Dedicated protection for circuits like kitchen appliances, EV chargers, and bathroom circuits


• Offices, retail spaces, and workshops where fault isolation per circuit is important
