Why does industrial mobile cable reel need lightning protection function? Posted by : admin / Posted on : Aug 08, 2020

After all, the role of the cable reel is equivalent to a powerful socket in all aspects. If lightning protection is required as a socket, then cable reels are used in industrial production environments and play a greater role. For electrical accessories involving larger appliances and more operator safety, lightning protection is even more indispensable Up. So does the socket need lightning protection?

 

In fact, whether it is from the perspective of the family environment or the industrial production process, the lightning protection function is indispensable. From the many fire accidents caused by thunder and lightning this summer, we can see that the hazards of thunder and lightning are very huge and difficult to avoid. So why is socket lightning protection needed in the home environment?

We know that residential buildings are equipped with lightning rods, but can you sit back and relax with lightning rods? In fact, this is not the case, because the role of the lightning rod is to protect the building from lightning strikes by resisting the hazards of direct lightning strikes, but in this process, the lightning rod will release a large amount of induced lightning, which is a surge. These surges invade the inside of the appliance along the antenna and the power cord, causing damage to the electrical components and failure to work properly, and even cause a fire.

 

Therefore, household sockets need lightning protection, but there are not many lightning protection products on the market, because people often use the usual method of lightning protection in their lives, that is, use as little electrical appliances as possible during thunderstorms in summer. But this method cannot be applied to industrial production. In order to allow industrial production to work safely and effectively, many companies have seen the great advantages of cable reels compared to ordinary sockets, and more and more manufacturers have begun to choose cable reels. However, the ordinary cable reel does not have lightning protection, and it is not safe to use.

 

In daily life, you can not watch TV or surf the Internet, but sometimes industrial production can't be delayed for a few hours. Therefore, in the event of a thunderstorm, companies that use cable reels without lightning protection often face a dilemma. On the one hand, if you stop using electrical appliances, it will affect the production progress and delay the normal work process, so you must not stop; on the other hand, if you use it reluctantly, once you are struck by lightning, not only the electrical appliances are at risk of being damaged, but people are injured or even causing fires. Not impossible. Therefore, the lightning protection function is an extremely important safety guarantee for the cable reel.
