Lectron Launches Surge Protective Device for Home EV Charging

Lectron has rolled out a new surge protective device (SPD) aimed at home electric vehicle chargers, designed to safeguard charging equipment from voltage spikes and power surges. The product is being marketed as a straightforward way to add an extra layer of protection to residential EV charging setups.

By installing the SPD, EV owners can reduce the risk of damage to their chargers and vehicles caused by electrical disturbances. Lectron positions the device as a peace-of-mind upgrade that complements existing home charging infrastructure without requiring complex installation.

The move comes as more drivers install Level 2 chargers at home, where grid fluctuations and lightning strikes can pose a threat. While the exact pricing and availability details were not disclosed in the source, the offering is part of Lectron’s growing portfolio of EV charging accessories.
