Invisible Protection for your Electronics
The Tecnel Proteo isn't just an accessory, but a crucial barrier against "excess voltages" that can irreparably damage the circuit boards of boilers, computers, and home automation systems. Often, power surges aren't caused solely by lightning strikes, but by changes in the power grid or the activation of large industrial loads nearby.
Strengths and Real Features
·Point Installation: Unlike panel-mounted limiters, the Proteo is designed for "fine" protection. It is installed as close as possible to the device to be protected, connecting it in parallel to the power outlet.
·Ultra-Compact Design: Its cylindrical or "tablet" shape (depending on the specific version) is designed to disappear behind the sockets of the civil series (such as Bticino, Vimar, etc.) inside the common 503 boxes.
·Audible/Visual Signaling: The device is designed to sacrifice itself to save your appliances. If it trips permanently following a severe electrical discharge, the device interrupts protection and signals the need for replacement (check the specific model for the type of signal).
·Versatility: It can be installed on any 230V system, regardless of the brand of the plates and switches used.
