Why Choose the ABB OVR T1-T2 1L 25-255 C Replacement Surge Protection Cartridge?
The ABB OVR T1-T2 1L 25-255 C, order code 2CTB813252R2300, is a replacement cartridge for compatible ABB OVR combined Type 1 and Type 2 surge protective devices. Designed for the OVR T1-T2 1L 25-255 range, it enables the surge protection element to be replaced while retaining the compatible installed SPD base and associated wiring.
The cartridge provides an impulse current Iimp of 25 kA using the 10/350 µs lightning-current waveform, together with a nominal discharge current In of 25 kA and a maximum discharge current Imax of 60 kA using the 8/20 µs waveform. These ratings provide combined protection against high-energy lightning currents and switching or induced transient overvoltages.
Designed for compatible ABB SPDs used in 230/400 V AC TT, TN-S and TN-C installations, the OVR T1-T2 1L 25-255 C has a maximum continuous operating voltage of 264 V AC and a voltage protection level of 1.5 kV. Its compact pluggable format makes it a convenient maintenance component for commercial and industrial surge protection systems.

High-Capacity Replacement Cartridge for Combined Type 1 and Type 2 Protection
Surge protection elements are designed to conduct potentially damaging transient energy and may eventually require replacement following repeated surge events or a substantial lightning-current impulse. The ABB OVR T1-T2 1L 25-255 C allows compatible OVR T1-T2 assemblies to be restored by replacing the protection cartridge rather than removing and rewiring the complete SPD.
Its 25 kA 10/350 µs impulse-current rating provides Type 1 lightning-current performance, while the 25 kA nominal and 60 kA maximum 8/20 µs discharge-current ratings provide Type 2 transient surge performance. This combination makes the cartridge suitable for maintaining coordinated surge protection at main and sub-distribution levels in compatible ABB installations.
