  • Do data center PDUs need lightning protection

    Do data center PDUs need lightning protection

    If your equipment is sensitive to voltage fluctuations or installed in environments exposed to lightning, switching surges, or industrial electrical interference, a PDU with surge protection is recommended. Especially in data centers, lightning protection PDUs are a key tool to ensure stable operation of equipment. Data centres form the backbone of our digital infrastructure, yet they face significant risks from lightning strikes and power surges. In the Netherlands alone, around 300,000 lightning strikes are recorded. Many data center managers assume that power distribution units (PDUs), especially rack-mounted PDUs, automatically protect servers from voltage spikes. A single lightning strike or utility power surge can damage critical equipment, disrupt operations, and lead to. Based on the principle that 'prevention is better than cure' it is advisable to think about the protection of your data centre against the risk of lightning strikes.
