Why Choose the Mersen K1-1PG Type 1+2 Neutral Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen K1-1PG, product code 44120100, is a high-performance Type 1+2 Surge Protection Device (SPD) specifically designed to provide neutral-to-earth (N-PE) surge protection within low-voltage electrical installations. Part of the trusted Mersen Surge-Trap® K1 Series, it forms the neutral protection component of coordinated Type 1+2 surge protection systems installed at the main distribution board.
The K1-1PG features a 0+1 internal configuration, a maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc) of 255 V and a pluggable cartridge design for simplified maintenance. Designed for TT and TN-S earthing systems, it provides high-capacity protection against lightning currents flowing between neutral and earth.
With an impressive 50 kA lightning impulse current (Iimp 10/350 μs), 100 kA maximum discharge current (Imax 8/20 μs), 50 kA nominal discharge current (In) and a voltage protection level (Up ≤1.5 kV), the K1-1PG delivers dependable protection for modern commercial, industrial and infrastructure electrical installations.
