OVERVIEW TELECOM SURGE GENERATORS

Telecommunication networks are exposed to lightning events. Therefore telecommunication equipment being connected to the outside world need to have appropriate protection to show an acceptable immunity to surge transients in order not to fail in case of lightning events. Telecom Surge Simulators of the TSS 500 series are used to proof the immunity of telecommunications equipment. The TSS 500M2F is used for Surge A pulse testing and AC power line surge testing as per FCC 97-270 (part 68).

Telecom Surge simulators of the TSS 500 series are used to proof the immunity of telecommunications equipment. The TSS 500M4 is used to perform tests as per IEC 61000-4-5 and related standards and complies with the requirements of ITU-T and FCC 97-270 (part 68) for Surge B pulse.

Telecom Surge Simulators of the TSS 500 series are used to proof the immunity of telecommunications equipment. The TSS 500M6B is used for 4-wire applications as per Bellcore GR-1089-Core. It can also be used for the 2-wire telecom port testing.

Surge pulses occur due to direct or indirect lightning strokes to an external (outdoor) circuit. This leads to currents or electromagnetic fields causing high voltage or current transients. Another source for surge pulses are switching transients originating from switching disturbances and systems faults. Due to the characteristic of the phenomenon nearly every electrical and electronical device may suffer from such lightning events which justifies the necessity of surge tests being widely performed. Surge voltage can reach several thousands of volts and surge current is seen to reach several thousands of amps.
