Bowthorpe EMP is a manufacturer of surge protectors. It offers voltage suppressor devices for various applications including Mains Power, Voice and Data Systems and High Voltage surge arresters. The brand provides its consumers an extensive range of products which meets demanding applications and diverse power and communications systems environments worldwide. This brand unlike other surge protector manufacturers, recognize that some Power Utilities require the need to maintain the conventional ZnO porcelain surge arrester. Hence in the year 1983 Bowthorpe EMP was first to develop the polymeric housed arrester for commercial operation.
The brand has developed state-of-the-art modular distribution panel bowthorpe protectors. These are made for three phase power systems are designed to prevent damage to electrical distribution systems from mainsborne transient voltages which can occur as the result of nearby lightning strikes or surges derived from the switching of inductive or capacitive loads.
