A Brief Discussion on System Energy Savers in the Market  
     


 

 


Today, many brands of system energy savers have emerged in the market, including those from the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and other countries. In fact, they are all essentially surge protectors. Our company is a professional power protection company. Electronic products have become an indispensable part of people's lives. The American brand JOSLYN advocates system surge protection, with three-level subdivision from the main distribution cabinet to sub-distribution cabinets to equipment. Its main function is 20% lightning protection and 80% absorption of internal startup surges of equipment. However, these battery-powered electronic products may have some headaches. The price of a large current generator in Shanghai does not affect equipment downtime, maintenance costs, or shorten the service life of equipment.

System energy savers in the market, but as long as we establish a service concept, scientific concept, and legal concept, they are actually power protection. At that time, I was skeptical about the energy-saving results touted in the market. "Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth." Multiple lithium battery explosion accidents have made people realize that small lithium batteries can also cause significant harm. A three-level control was implemented for a textile factory. After one month of comparison, the energy-saving result was only 1.6%. Although many electronic products now have overload protection devices, there is also the quality issue of surge protectors (which involves technical issues and cannot be explained in a few words). The YBB standard makes production, use, inspection, and other related units work more scientifically and reasonably. Among them, the process requirements for varistors are very high, and the problem of thermal stability is an important factor affecting the safety of the power grid.

Assuming the quality of the surge protector is quite good, therefore never let lithium batteries be in extreme temperature environments for a long time, as there is a fire hazard. However, I believe that promoting surge protectors as system energy savers is extremely irresponsible. By relying on the scientific research projects undertaken by the conference secretariat to drive the improvement of standards, where is the integrity?
