N Female to Female surge protectors are most commonly installed inline between the donor antenna feeder cable and the equipment patch cable. With an N Female Bulkhead interface, the surge protector can be mounted through a plate. Surge protection is recommended for all roof mounted antenna installations where the risk of a lightning surge is high and the cost associated with equipment damage outweighs the cost to implement a lightning protection system. Consult AS/NZS 1768:2007 risk management process, or talk to your Powertec Project Engineer.

The implementation of a lightning protection system is recommended in not only protecting the warranty of equipment, but the warranty of any sensitive electrical equipment located in the building. Failure to implement reasonable lightning protection measures may also void insurance policies held by the building owner.
