Why Choose the ABB OVR T2 40-660 P TS U Surge Protective Device?
The ABB OVR T2 40-660 P TS U is a high-performance Type 2 surge protective device (SPD) designed to protect low-voltage electrical installations and sensitive equipment against transient overvoltages caused by indirect lightning effects and switching events. Part of the ABB OVR surge protection range, this single-pole device provides robust surge protection for higher-voltage AC distribution systems.
The OVR T2 40-660 P TS U provides a maximum discharge current (Imax) of 40 kA and a nominal discharge current (In) of 10 kA using the standard 8/20 µs surge-current waveform. It is designed for a nominal system voltage of 600 V AC and has a maximum continuous operating voltage (MCOV) of 660 V AC, making it suitable for demanding industrial and commercial power-distribution applications.
Its pluggable construction simplifies maintenance by allowing the protection cartridge to be replaced without replacing the complete base. The TS remote signalling function provides external indication of protection status, while the compact DIN-rail format enables straightforward integration into distribution boards and industrial electrical panels.
