Advanced Protection Technologies, Inc. (APT) is a leading
manufacturer of hard wired TVSS products located in central
Florida, heart of lightning activity. Surge suppression is
crucial to any power quality and power protection system,
including lightning protection and three phase power systems.
Surge protectors guard against transient overvoltages, sometimes
called transients, spikes or surges, hence the name Transient
Voltage Surge Suppressor or TVSS. Transients are known to damage
sensitive electronic equipment in homes, schools, commercial,
industrial and medical facilities, wastewater treatment plants,
factories, etc. Transient overvoltages come from lightning and
utility operations as well as internal actions such as motors
cycling on and off. Transients have always been with us, however
modern microelectronic loads tend to be sensitive to them. The
downtime, damage and destruction caused to critical or
electronic loads cost billions of dollars a year.
APT’s specialty is hardwired TVSS that connects to electrical
distribution gear in single, two pole, and three phase power
systems. Typically, a TVSS connects via a breaker and protects
the entire load fed from that panel. Most TVSS are comprised of
Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) and capacitive EMI/RFI noise
filters. UL 1449 is an important safety and performance
standard.
Beyond superior products, APT’s strengths are our long term
philosophies concerning old-fashioned ethics, integrity and
service. Frost and Sullivan ranked APT #1 in the three phase
market and awarded APT with consecutive awards for customer
service. We offer training, PDH’s and specialized services to
consulting engineers, distributors, contractors and consumers.
We can also provide CSI format specifications, product guidance
and comparisons. APT offers complete OEM services used by an
impressive list of customers. For questions about products or
