Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) play a critical role in protecting electrical and photovoltaic (PV) systems from lightning strikes, switching surges, and transient overvoltages. Selecting, designing, testing, and certifying these devices according to internationally recognized standards is essential for ensuring system safety, reliability, and long-term performance.
Welcome to Mastering IEC 61643-11 & IEC 61643-31: Complete Guide to Surge Protective Devices (SPDs). This comprehensive course provides an in-depth understanding of the international IEC standards governing Surge Protective Devices for low-voltage power distribution systems and photovoltaic (PV) installations.
Designed for electrical engineers, testing professionals, manufacturers, certification engineers, laboratory personnel, solar PV professionals, consultants, and engineering students, this course explains both standards in a practical, easy-to-understand manner. Even if you are new to surge protection, the course starts with the fundamentals and gradually progresses to advanced testing and compliance requirements.
