The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of renewable energy installations, rising data center construction, growth in commercial building infrastructure, increasing grid modernization projects, higher adoption of high-capacity spds. Major trends in the forecast period include higher surge current handling capacity, modular and scalable spd designs, increased adoption of type 1 and type 2 spds, compact and space-efficient protection devices, stricter compliance with international safety standards.

The increasing adoption of electronic systems is expected to drive growth in the surge protection devices market. Electronic systems consist of devices that work together to control and manage electrical signals for various tasks. Demand for these systems is rising due to the growing use of smart and connected devices, which enable better communication and automation in daily life. Surge protection devices help safeguard electronic systems by preventing damage from sudden voltage spikes, ensuring reliable and safe operation. For example, in May 2023, the Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, a Japan-based trade organization, reported that Japan’s consumer electronic equipment production reached $217.83 million (32,099 million yen), a 127% increase compared to May 2022.

Companies in the surge protection devices market are developing innovations such as external light-emitting diode (LED) indicators to enhance system protection and monitoring. External LED indicators provide visual signals showing device status and alert users when maintenance is required. In June 2023, Littelfuse, a US-based electronics company, launched its NEMA-style SPDN series, designed to protect equipment from microsecond transient overvoltage events. These devices include line-to-neutral, line-to-ground, and neutral-to-ground protection in a compact design, stacked metal oxide varistors (MOVs) for transient voltage protection, UL 1283 filtering to reduce interference, and thermally protected MOVs with external LED indicators for easier maintenance and reliable industrial performance.

In February 2023, Legrand S.A., a France-based provider of electrical and digital building infrastructure, acquired Clamper for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition strengthens Legrand’s presence in the Brazilian market and expands its surge protection device portfolio. Clamper Indústria e Comércio S.A., based in Brazil, manufactures surge protection devices.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

Tariffs have influenced the surge protection devices market by increasing the cost of imported electrical components, metals, and precision assemblies used in hard-wired and power control devices. This has led to higher manufacturing costs and pricing pressures, particularly affecting industrial, data center, and commercial building applications in regions dependent on cross-border supply chains such as Asia-Pacific and Europe. Power rating segments above 100 kA and panel-mounted configurations are more exposed due to higher material intensity. On the positive side, tariffs are encouraging localized manufacturing, supplier diversification, and long-term investments in domestic electrical infrastructure markets.

This surge protection devices market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.

Surge protection devices are specialized electrical components designed to protect equipment and systems from sudden voltage spikes and transient surges caused by lightning, power outages, or switching operations. They work by detecting excess voltage and safely diverting it away from sensitive components, preventing damage and reducing downtime. These devices help maintain stable operation and play a vital role in ensuring the reliability, efficiency, and longevity of electrical and electronic systems across various applications.

The main types of surge protection devices include hard-wired, plug-in, line cord, and power control devices. Hard-wired devices are physically connected or permanently configured, rather than being programmable or adjustable via software. They are available in multiple power ratings, such as 0-50 kA, 50.1-100 kA, 100.1-200 kA, and 200.1 kA and above. These devices are used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications by end users including commercial complexes, data centers, manufacturing units, medical facilities, residential buildings, telecommunications, and transportation sectors.North America was the largest region in the surge protection devices market in 2025.
