New app explains surge protection

Phoenix Contact now offers a new surge protection app for Smartphones (available at Google Play and in the App Store). This app represents a modern, easy-to-use tool for an electrician that allows them to convince customers of the need to protect their equipment against surges.

Together with the customer, the electrician can use the app to fit a single-family home with surge protection. An animated diagram shows where and how well the house is protected. In addition, videos such as the Simple Show or a montage of lab tests performed at Phoenix Contact demonstrate why surge protection is so important.

All selected products are stored in lists of protected devices or equipment. These lists can be sent to the customer as part of the consultation or used to prepare a quote for him. The app has many uses for home owners and building contractors as well. If someone is looking to retrofit his home with surge protection, he can find the products he needs in the app and send the list to his electrical supplies dealer.
