Why Choose the ABB OVR T1-T2 N 50-255 C Replacement Surge Protection Cartridge?
The ABB OVR T1-T2 N 50-255 C is a single-pole neutral-to-earth replacement surge protection cartridge for compatible ABB OVR combined Type 1 + Type 2 surge protective devices (SPDs). Identified by ABB order code 2CTB812522R2300, it is designed for the N-PE protection path of ABB OVR assemblies used in TT and TN-S low-voltage distribution systems.
This cartridge provides high-energy lightning-current protection through a 50 kA impulse current (Iimp) rating using the 10/350 µs waveform. It also provides a 25 kA nominal discharge current (In) and 60 kA maximum discharge current (Imax) using the 8/20 µs waveform, making it suitable for restoring the protection capability of compatible ABB OVR T1-T2 assemblies without replacing the complete surge protection device.
The OVR T1-T2 N 50-255 C has a 255 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage across N-PE and a 1.5 kV voltage protection level (Up). Its pluggable cartridge format enables straightforward replacement during maintenance and is used as the neutral protection module in products including the ABB OVR T1-T2 1N 50-255 P TS.

Reliable Replacement Protection for ABB OVR T1-T2 Systems
Combined Type 1 and Type 2 surge protective devices are designed to manage both high-energy lightning currents and transient overvoltages. The neutral-to-earth protection path is particularly important in 1+1 and 3+1 configurations, providing a controlled discharge route between neutral and protective earth while helping limit the voltage stress imposed on the installation.
The ABB OVR T1-T2 N 50-255 C provides a 50 kA 10/350 µs lightning impulse capability in a replaceable cartridge format. When a compatible neutral protection module requires replacement, this cartridge allows the ABB OVR assembly to be serviced without replacing the complete DIN rail base, helping simplify maintenance and reduce unnecessary component replacement.
Typical Applications
- Replacement neutral cartridge for compatible ABB OVR T1-T2 SPDs.
- ABB OVR T1-T2 1N 50-255 P TS surge protection assemblies.
- TT low-voltage distribution systems.
- TN-S low-voltage distribution systems.
- Main electrical distribution boards.
- Commercial and industrial switchboards.
- Maintenance and servicing of ABB OVR lightning and surge protection installations.
