 Actually the Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS) is an obsolete term as we call now a Surge Protection Device (SPD). This device is usually installed in PDP, PCS, CS and other heavy duty industrial systems, for the purpose of protecting of electrical surges and spikes that usually exist in the circuit.
