An SPD datasheet is more than a list of surge current ratings. This guide explains how to evaluate Uc, Up, In, Imax, Iimp, TOV behavior, protection modes, Isccr, and backup protection before selecting a surge protective device. Using real product data, it also shows buyers how to compare variants, identify misleading rating comparisons, and verify certificates, test evidence, and installation documents for the exact model supplied.
