As part of VDC' s Power Protection Market Intelligence Program, this study
analyzes shipments of power line surge suppressors to the Americas. Shipments
to the Americas are defined as products shipped to customers or channel
partners in the United States, Canada and Mexico and Central and South
America. This report is designed to serve as a marketing tool for companies
who currently manufacture or resell power line surge suppressors, or for
companies who are considering entering markets in the Americas.
