The safety of our electrical devices is crucial to avoid damage and maintain the functionality of our home or workplace. From K-Electric we provide you with practical advice and introduce you to innovative solutions from CHINT to protect your equipment from the most common threats.
Importance of protecting your devices
Storms, power fluctuations and poor electrical installations are some of the main causes of damage to electronic devices. Taking preventive measures can save you a lot of trouble and unnecessary expenses.
Tips for keeping your devices secure
Keep them away from windows and water areas.
It is essential to place your electronic devices away from windows and areas where they may be exposed to water. Moisture and water can cause short circuits and irreparable damage.
Disconnect the unnecessary
Unplugging appliances that you are not using is a simple practice that can prevent damage from power surges or spikes. It also helps to save energy.
Check your electrical installation
A well-maintained electrical installation is key to the safety of your home. Make sure there are no exposed wires or bad plugs, especially in areas susceptible to moisture.
Transient storms and surges
Storms can cause transient surges, which are brief, sudden increases in the voltage of the power grid. These fluctuations can have serious consequences:
Perforation of insulation
Surges can pierce cable insulation, which increases the risk of short circuits and failures in the electrical system.
Damage to equipment
Power surges can damage internal components of electronic devices, reducing their useful life or rendering them inoperable.
Fire hazard
An electrical installation damaged by surges can generate sparks and, in the worst case, cause fires.
