Product Description
Our Surge Protective Devices are meticulously crafted to act as a formidable shield for your electrical systems, safeguarding them from the unpredictable and damaging effects of transient surge conditions. These protective marvels deliver unwavering defense against substantial single surge events, such as the ferocity of a lightning strike, which can unleash a torrent of hundreds of thousands of volts, threatening the integrity of your equipment with immediate or sporadic failures. Interestingly, lightning and utility power irregularities contribute to merely 20% of transient surges. Astonishingly, a predominant 80% of surge activity originates internally within establishments. While these internally generated surges might generally manifest with a lesser magnitude, their relentless occurrence and persistent exposure can insidiously erode the functionality and longevity of your delicate electronic equipment.
Product Features
1. Versatile 1P+N phase protection, engineered for compatibility with both AC/DC systems, ensuring all-encompassing safety and reliability.
2. A user-friendly pluggable module design guarantees seamless installation and effortless maintenance, saving you valuable time and effort.
3. Impressive high discharge capacity coupled with an ultra-rapid response time, delivering unmatched surge protection excellence.
4. Integrated with dual thermal disconnection devices that provide enhanced and dependable protection, giving you peace of mind.
5. Ingeniously designed green window indicator that transitions upon fault detection, augmented by remote alarm control for proactive and vigilant monitoring.
A power surge is a swift overvoltage event that poses a significant threat to electrical devices, often resulting in equipment failure and diminished longevity. Surges are infamous for their potential to damage and shorten the life span of various household systems and appliances, including:
- Heating and Air Conditioning Systems
- Washers and Dryers
- Water Heaters
- Ranges & Refrigerators
- Lighting
- Entertainment Systems
Did you know that the National Electrical Manufacturers Association highlights that the average home contains approximately $15,000 worth of equipment that could be susceptible to surge damage?
Common Causes of Surges:
Expert assessments reveal that a substantial 80% of surges are generated by internal sources within the premises.
Internal Sources:
- Sudden surges frequently occur when sizable appliances are powered on or off, causing potential disruptions.
- Faulty wiring or loose connections can also precipitate surge occurrences, emphasizing the need for vigilant maintenance.
- Overloaded circuits, short circuits, or ground faults are prevalent internal surge initiators, underscoring the importance of proper circuit management.
- Power restoration incidents can additionally contribute to surge activity, highlighting the necessity for protective measures.
External Sources:
- Lightning strikes remain a quintessential example of external surge sources, posing a formidable threat.
- Physical damage to power lines can instigate surge events, further emphasizing the need for robust protection strategies.
- Utility power grid switching is another potential external surge source, warranting attention and preventive measures.
NEW 2020 National Electrical Code Requirements
The latest 2020 code mandates that all new and renovated homes must integrate Listed and Approved Type 1 or Type 2 Surge Protective Devices, ensuring the utmost safety and adherence to compliance standards.
Type 1:
As a permanently connected Surge Protective Device, Type 1 offers comprehensive protection against both external and internal surges. It can be installed flexibly either inside or outside the home, providing versatile safeguarding.
Type 2:
This permanently connected Surge Protective Device is designed to be installed in, or adjacent to, the breaker box, offering a robust defense against internal or external surges.
Type 3:
For additional safeguarding, the Type 3 is a point-of-use Surge Protective Device, intended for use in tandem with Type 1 or Type 2 SPDs to meet the 2020 code requirements, delivering optimal protection.
For unmatched protection, it is advisable to employ Type 1, 2, and 3 SPDs together, ensuring the highest echelon of defense against surges.

Installation Instructions
Selection of SPD:
For crafting a top-tier power distribution system, it is imperative to focus on the essential characteristics that significantly contribute to devising an effective lightning protection system. These characteristics are paramount for the precise selection of a Surge Protective Device (SPD) to ensure robust safeguarding of electrical installations within buildings. Key considerations include:
- Surge Protective Device (SPD)
- Quantity of SPD
- Type
- The level of exposure plays a pivotal role in assessing and determining the SPD's maximum discharge current, known as Imax. This factor is essential for ensuring the device's effectiveness under various conditions.
- Short Circuit Protection Device
- Maximum discharge current, Imax;
- Short-circuit current, Isc at the installation point.
Additional characteristics that influence the choice of an SPD are strategically predefined for an electrical installation, ensuring its seamless and efficient integration.
- Number of poles in SPD;
- Voltage protection level, Up;
- Operating voltage, Uc.
This Sub-sectionDesign of the Electrical Installation Protection SystemThis segment delves into an in-depth analysis of the pivotal criteria necessary for selecting an appropriate protection system. The selection is based on the specific installation characteristics, the equipment intended to be safeguarded, and the surrounding environmental conditions.
Location and Types of SPD:
Connection of SPD:
Ensure that the SPD connections to the loads are kept as short as possible. Minimizing the connection length is crucial for effectively reducing the voltage protection level (installed Up) at the terminals of the devices being protected.
The cumulative length of SPD connections, spanning from the network to the earth terminal block, must be strictly maintained within a 50 cm limit to ensure optimal performance.
