Digital input 2 – dedicated to surge protection/diverter signal
To protect electrical components, it is recommended always to use a surge protection device
(surge suppressor or surge diverter) for installations in the low-voltage distribution net. The pur-
pose of this device is to reduce voltage spikes caused by, for example, lightning strikes.
As surge protectors wear out over time, OMNIGRID Connect can monitor the status of the lifetime
of the fuse.
Note
As of OMNIA 3.4, surge protection signal input is not supported. However, digital input 2
is reserved for this in relation to upcoming releases.
