There are three levels of tests. The level 1 test is used to simulate the situation of partial lightning current impulse. SPDs that meet the level I test method are generally recommended for high exposure locations, such as: cable entry of buildings protected by electrical protection systems. SPDs tested by level I or sub-level test methods are subjected to shorter-term impulses. These SPDs are generally recommended for less exposed locations. All SPD tests should be based on the basic model. The test includes the evaluation technology used by the manufacturer to use the most appropriate test method.

Commonly used components of voltage switching type SPD are discharge gaps, gas discharge tubes, thyristors (silicon controlled rectifiers) and triacs. This type of SPD is sometimes also called "short type SPD\.
Voltage limiting type SPD voltage limiting type SPD has high impedance when there is no surge, but as the surge current and voltage increase, its impedance will continue to decrease.

When the manufacturer states that the requirements of level III tests are met, the SPD shall be tested in accordance with these requirements. Compliance shall be checked by the test in 7.6.7.
6.2.6 Operation load test
When the maximum continuous operation voltage U, is applied, the SPD shall be able to withstand the specified discharge current without unacceptable changes in its characteristics. Compliance shall be checked by the test in 7.6. 6.2.7 SPD disconnector
SPDs may be equipped with SPD disconnectors (which may be internal or external, or both), and their operation shall be indicated. Note: Installation requirements unrelated to the SPD may require additional and/or lower rated overcurrent protection devices. In the type test procedure, the SPD disconnector shall be tested together with the SPD, except for the RCD in 7.7.1 No test is performed during the action load test.
Compliance is checked by the tests of 7.7 and 7.8.3. 6.2.8 Clearance and creepage distance
The SPD shall have sufficient clearance and creepage distance. Test according to 7.9.5. 6.2.9 Tracking resistance
The insulating materials necessary to keep the current-carrying parts in their position shall be non-tracking materials, or they shall be of sufficient size. Test according to 7.9.6.
6.2.10 Dielectric strength
The enclosure of the SPD shall have sufficient dielectric strength to take into account insulation damage and to prevent direct contact. Test according to 7.9.8. 6.2.11 Short-circuit current withstand capability
The SPD shall be able to withstand the power supply short-circuit current until the SPD itself is disconnected, or an internal or external overcurrent disconnector or overcurrent protection interrupts the short-circuit current. Test 6.2.12 Status Indicator Action in accordance with 7.7.3
General Requirements
During the entire type test, the status displayed by the indicator shall clearly indicate the status of the part connected to the indicator.
