Reliable Type 2 Surge Protection for Distribution Systems
Type 2 surge protection devices are commonly installed in distribution boards and sub-distribution panels to limit transient overvoltages before they reach sensitive downstream equipment. They are typically used as the second stage of protection where Type 1 devices are installed upstream, or as the first stage in installations without direct lightning exposure.
The Mersen 83020000 replacement cartridge helps maintenance teams restore surge protection quickly and efficiently. Its plug-in design makes it suitable for panel builders, electrical contractors and facilities engineers maintaining power distribution systems in commercial and industrial environments.
Typical Applications
- Electrical distribution boards.
- Commercial building services panels.
- Industrial switchboards and control panels.
- Sub-distribution surge protection systems.
- Neutral-to-earth protection applications.
- Maintenance replacement for compatible Mersen Surge-Trap devices.
