— ReliaGear Surge Protective Device RGMESP
ReliaGear® RGMESP Series SPDs are engineered with smart thermal disconnecting technology that safely removes overstressed components before harmful external effects arise. This preventive approach enhances safety and avoids nuisance from OCPD tripping or thermal events. The core suppression system includes proprietary Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) for surge energy diversion and metal film capacitors for filtering low-level transient voltages and electrical noise. The design is UL Listed, suitable for all NEC compliant installations.
