Product Description

Product Description

Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) are expertly crafted to shield your valuable equipment from transient surge conditions. Major surge events, like a lightning strike, can unleash an astounding surge reaching hundreds of thousands of volts, leading to either immediate or delayed equipment failure. Interestingly, lightning and utility power irregularities account for a mere 20% of all transient surges. The vast majority, constituting 80%, are generated internally within the facility. Although these surges may be less intense, their frequent occurrence can gradually impair sensitive electronic equipment, making proactive protection a necessity.

Product Features
1. Robust 1P+N phase protection, adaptable for both AC and DC systems

2. Innovative pluggable module design, ensuring effortless installation and maintenance

3. Exceptional discharge capacity with rapid response capability

4. Dual thermal disconnection mechanisms for enhanced reliability and safety

5. Convenient visual indication with a green window that shifts upon a fault, coupled with remote alarm control.

A power surge is a fleeting overvoltage occurrence that poses a significant threat to electrical devices, often leading to equipment failure. Surges are notorious for damaging and diminishing the lifespan of:

• Heating and Air Conditioning Systems
• Washers and Dryers
• Water Heaters
• Ranges & Refrigerators
• Lighting
• Entertainment Systems

The National Electrical Manufacturers Association highlights that the typical household possesses approximately $15,000 worth of equipment susceptible to surge damage.

Common Causes of Surge:
An estimated 80% of surges originate from internal sources within your premises.

Internal Sources:

• On/off cycling of large appliances
• Faulty wiring or loose connections causing instability
• Overloaded circuits, short circuits, or ground faults leading to surges
• Power restoration after outages

External Sources:

• Natural phenomena like lightning
• Physical damage to power lines
• Switching within utility power grids

2020 National Electrical Code: New Mandates
All new and renovated homes are mandated to be safeguarded by Listed and Approved Type 1 or Type 2 Surge Protective Devices for maximum safety.

Type 1:
A permanently connected Surge Protective Device offering robust defense against both external and internal surges. This versatile unit can be installed inside or outside the home.

Type 2:
A permanently connected Surge Protective Device, ideally located in or near the breaker box. It provides comprehensive protection against both internal and external surges.

Type 3:
For added safety, a point-of-use Surge Protective Device must complement either Type 1 or Type 2 SPD to adhere to 2020 code requirements.

Utilizing a combination of Type 1, 2, and 3 SPDs delivers the most comprehensive protection.

Installation Instructions

Selection of SPD:
For a power distribution system, the primary attributes pivotal to defining the lightning protection framework and selecting an SPD for safeguarding an electrical installation within a building include:

• SPD
  • Quantity of SPD
  • Type
  • The exposure level necessary to determine the SPD's supreme discharge current, known as Imax.
• Short Circuit Protection Device
  • Maximum discharge current Imax;
  • Short-circuit current Isc at the precise point of installation.

Furthermore, other characteristics for selecting an SPD are pre-established for an electrical installation.

• Number of poles in SPD;
• Voltage protection level Up;
• Operating voltage Uc.

This Sub-Section Design of the Electrical Installation Protection System This section elaborates on the criteria for selecting the protection system based on the installation's characteristics, the equipment needing protection, and the surrounding environment.

Location and Types of SPD:


Connection of SPD:
To minimize the voltage protection level (installed Up) at the terminals of the protected gear, SPD connections should be as concise as feasible.

The cumulative length of SPD connections to the network and earth terminal block should remain under 50 cm.
