Product Description

Product Description

Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) serve as vigilant guardians against transient surge conditions, safeguarding your valuable electronics from unexpected power spikes. While major surge events like lightning can unleash hundreds of thousands of volts, causing immediate or intermittent equipment failure, it's important to note that these dramatic surges only account for a mere 20% of total surge activity. The silent yet persistent culprits are the internal surges, constituting 80%, which insidiously degrade sensitive equipment over time. Even though these internal surges are lesser in magnitude, their frequent occurrence poses a constant threat to your facility's electronics.

Product Features
1. Features a robust 1P+N phase protection, suitable for both AC and DC systems, ensuring comprehensive defense.

2. Equipped with a user-friendly pluggable module, making installation and maintenance incredibly easy and efficient.

3. Boasts a high discharge capacity and rapid response time, prepared to tackle surges with immediacy.

4. Incorporates advanced double thermal disconnection devices, delivering superior reliability in protection.

5. Innovative design includes a green window indicator that signals faults and simultaneously provides remote alarm control for enhanced safety.

A power surge is a brief yet intense overvoltage event capable of inflicting damage on electrical devices. Such surges are notorious for causing failures in electronic equipment and can significantly shorten the lifespan of:

• Heating and Air Conditioning Systems, ensuring your home's comfort.
• Washers and Dryers, crucial for your daily chores.
• Water Heaters, vital for hot water supply.
• Ranges & Refrigerators, essential for food storage and cooking.
• Lighting systems, keeping your spaces bright and safe.
• Entertainment Systems, vital for leisure and relaxation.

According to the National Electrical Manufacturers Association, the average household possesses approximately $15,000 worth of equipment vulnerable to surge damage.

Common Causes of Surges:
It's estimated that a substantial 80% of surges arise from internal sources.

Internal Sources:

• Frequent cycling of large appliances.
• Issues such as faulty wiring or loose connections.
• Problems like overloaded circuits, short circuits, or ground faults.
• Events like power recovery scenarios.

External Sources:

• Natural phenomena like lightning strikes.
• Physical damage to power lines.
• Utility power grid switching operations.

NEW 2020 National Electrical Code Requirements
Mandatory protection for all new and renovated homes with Listed and Approved Type 1 or Type 2 Surge Protective Devices, ensuring compliance and safety.

Type 1:
A permanently connected SPD that offers comprehensive protection against both external and internal surges. Versatile installation options allow placement either inside or outside the home.

Type 2:
A permanently connected SPD strategically installed in or adjacent to the breaker box, shielding against internal and external surges.

Type 3:
Provides extra protection as a point-of-use SPD. Must be used in conjunction with Type 1 or Type 2 SPDs to satisfy 2020 code requirements, offering layered security.

For optimal protection, employ a combination of Type 1, 2, and 3 SPDs to comprehensively shield your home and devices.

Installation Instructions

Selection of SPD:
In a power distribution system, selecting the ideal SPD to safeguard an electrical installation within a structure relies on key characteristics defining the lightning protection system, including:

• SPD
  • Considerations for SPD Quantity:
  • SPD Type
  • Exposure level determines the SPD's maximum discharge current Imax.
• Short Circuit Protection Device
  • Maximum discharge current, known as Imax;
  • Short-circuit current (Isc) at the installation point.

Additional criteria for SPD selection are predefined for specific electrical installations.

• Number of poles in the SPD;
• Voltage protection level, denoted as Up;
• Operating Voltage, indicated as Uc.

This sub-section Designing the Electrical Installation Protection System This section elaborates on selecting the protection system's criteria based on installation characteristics, the equipment to be shielded, and environmental conditions.

SPD Locations and Types:


SPD Connection Guidelines:
Ensure SPD connections to loads are as concise as possible to minimize the voltage protection level (installed Up) at the protected equipment's terminals.

Keep the total length of SPD connections to both the network and the earth terminal block under 50 cm.

SPD Enclosures: Plastic vs. Metal

 

RED Indicator: Time to Replace
