Voltage Regulation for High-End LED Lighting
All precision LED lighting is highly sensitive to voltage fluctuations. Voltage sags, spikes, and fluctuations caused by HVAC systems, large appliances, or grid instability can result in visible flickers, glitches, and even permanent damage to LED drivers and lighting controllers. TPD's voltage regulator, the TPD-VR corrects disturbances in power in <8ms to ensure regulated voltage for high-end lighting systems.

TPD Reduces Your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
A properly coordinated whole home surge protection system is the biggest payback product you will get as a homeowner. Every piece of equipment in your home—from smart TVs to lighting, appliances, and HVAC systems—has a total cost over its lifetime. That includes repairs, maintenance, downtime, and premature replacements. TPD surge protection reduces hidden costs by minimizing wear and tear on sensitive electronics, preventing failures, and extending the usable life of expensive equipment.

What is a Surge?
In a perfect world with perfect power and ideal environmental conditions, electronics could last indefinitely; however, power is not perfect, and surges happen frequently. A surge, also known as a transient, is a sudden increase in voltage that typically lasts less than one sixtieth of a second. Surges can cause problems such as downtime, lost productivity, equipment failure, high maintenance costs, long-term system degradation, and data loss/corruption. Protect your home or facility with a TPD surge protection system and prevent 85% to 95% of surge related problems!

What is Voltage Regulation?
Voltage regulation refers to the process of maintaining a consistent voltage level to ensure the proper functioning of electronic devices and equipment. TPD is excited to announce the TPD-VR, a voltage regulator that conditions and regulates power, preventing electronic lockups, glitches, and failures over a wide input voltage range with an extremely fast correction time (8ms or less). This field-proven technology has been used in thousands of applications such as hospitals, airports, and industrial facilities, and we are proud to introduce it to the custom residential marketplace.

Amplifier Surge Protection
Running speaker wires out to numerous outdoor speakers is like creating a giant copper antenna that attracts lightning. Once lightning finds itself inside the building it can easily destroy the amp and migrate to other equipment in the rack or in the electrical panel feeding the rack.

TPD Surge Protection is a Quick Return on Investment
When unprotected equipment fails, locks up, or glitches it may create a plethora of problems in an electronic system causing downtime, service calls, loss of productivity, and loss of time to enjoy the system. A properly installed TPD surge suppression system can maintain the peak performance of equipment for the longest possible time and save the customer money year after year.

EV Charger Surge Protection
Just like HVAC and refrigeration equipment turning on and off, EV Chargers create surges that travel back to the breaker panel, potentially damaging other equipment in the building. Protecting your home from the surges generated by EV charging stations helps prevent damage to other equipment in the home.
