TVSS (Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor)

A Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) is a device that protects electrical equipment from sudden, brief increases in voltage caused by events like lightning strikes or power surges. It works by diverting excess voltage away from sensitive devices, preventing damage or malfunction. Typically installed in electrical panels or near critical equipment, a TVSS ensures stable power flow, safeguarding electronics and extending their lifespan. It doesn't stop normal voltage but reacts quickly to abnormal spikes, acting as a shield against potentially costly electrical disruptions.
