Overview

Designed for use in Hager’s range of TP&N & Invicta distribution boards this Type 2 Surge Protection device protects electrical and electronic equipment against transients, originating from lightning, switching of transformers, lighting and motors.
These transients can cause premature ageing of equipment, downtime, or complete destruction of electronic components and materials. SPDs are strongly recommended for installations that are exposed to transients, to protect sensitive and expensive electrical equipment such as TVs, washing machines, PCs, alarms etc.

Type 2 SPDs can prevent the spread of overvoltages in the electrical installations and protects equipment connected to it. It usually employs metal oxide varistor (MOV) technology and is characterised by an 8/20 s current wave.

Key Features

• Surge Protection Device for transient electrical over-voltages
• Class 2 SPD for typical waveforms of 8/20 s
• Protects against insulation failure, resonance, arcing ground etc
• End of Life indicator light
