Anotácia textu normy ČSN EN IEC 61643-41 (341392):

This document, together with IEC 61643-01, is applicable to devices for surge protection against indirect and direct effects of lightning or other transient overvoltages.

These devices are intended to be connected to DC power circuits and equipment rated up to 1 500 V DC. Performance and safety requirements, tests and ratings are specified in this document. These devices contain at least one nonlinear component and are intended to limit surge voltages and divert surge currents.

The test requirements provided by this document are based on the assumption that the SPD is connected to a DC power circuit fed by a power source providing a linear voltage-current characteristic. When the SPD is to be connected to a different kind of source, careful consideration is required. This mainly applies with regard to system and fault conditions to be expected in such a system (e.g. expected short circuit current, TOV-stresses)
