Iranian Engineer Designs, Builds Power Protection Systems for Buildings
Reza Saki, an associate professor at the electronics engineering faculty of the university, said the system has special capabilities to protect electrical appliances.
Saki made the remarks on the sidelines of the Islamic Azad University’s Asreh Omid Event, which was held in late May in Tehran’s Grand Mosalla.
The event was held with the participation of 3,000 knowledge-based companies, laboratories, research teams, and startups.
Power protection systems protect sensitive equipment from the effects of power failures and power surges.
The central protection system for buildings enjoys special capabilities with wide applications and has the role of protection and safety from two aspects, Saki added.
The first aspect is the protection of electrical equipment and appliances of the building as well as the lighting system, and the protection of people's lives.
The second aspect is to help the distribution network to protect appliances against power surges, load response planning, and centralized energy management, Saki explained.
Moreover, the system has the ability to supply a DC line, providing a low-voltage line to consumers without having the need for an independent power supply.
The system can be operated and used in all residential-office and commercial complexes, including small buildings and high-rise towers.
Energy Minister Ali-Akbar Mehrabian has said over 57 percent of the country’s exports of technical-engineering services are done by the water and electricity sectors.
