Frequently Asked Questions
What does Type 1+2 surge protection mean?
Type 1+2 surge protection devices provide combined protection against high-energy surges caused by direct lightning strikes (Type 1) and lower energy surges from indirect lightning or switching events (Type 2).
Can this device be used in three-phase systems?
This model is designed specifically for single-phase 120V systems. For three-phase applications, a different SPD model suited for three poles should be selected.
Is the device easy to replace during maintenance?
Yes, the pluggable 1-module design allows for quick, tool-free replacement, minimising downtime.
What does the green indication system signify?
The green indicator shows that the device is functioning correctly. If the indicator is not green, the SPD should be replaced.

Protection system of coordinated stages: Type 1, 2 and 3 SPDs
The SPDs of a surge protection system must be able to withstand the discharged current and provide a Ures level (residua l voltage) lower than the Ue peak voltage that the equipment can withstand. Most of the times it is not possible to achieve this with just one SPD, especially because the intensity of the surge is not known, and because of the induction of overvoltages when conductors exceed 10m.
The optimal system of protection is the 3-STEP approach, in which successive stages are combined in the performance of high discharge capacity devices and devices with an optimal voltage protection level (low). This is addressed by the definition of "Types" or "Classes" of SPDs according to the type of transient pulses to which each protected zone in the installation is subject to.
