Abstract
Embodiments are directed to a transient protection circuit configured for use in a SSPC having a plurality of power channels. The transient protection circuit includes a shared transient voltage suppressor, and a shared protection line communicatively coupled to the shared transient voltage suppressor. The shared protection line is configured to be communicatively coupled to and shared by the plurality of power channels. When the shared protection line is communicatively coupled to and shared by the plurality of power channels, energy above a threshold on any one of the plurality of power channels is dissipated through the shared protection line and the shared transient voltage suppressor.
