The ESP 415T1/25/TNS is a combined Type 1 and 2 tested Surge Protective Device SPD (to BS EN 61643) for use on the main distribution board, particularly where a structural Lightning Protection System (LPS) is employed, for equipotential bonding.
For use at boundaries up to LPZ 0 to protect against flashover (typically the main distribution board location) through to LPZ 2 to protect electrical equipment from damage.
Features & Benefits
- Enhanced protection (to IEC/BS EN 62305) offering low let-through voltage further minimizing the risk of flashover creating dangerous sparking or electric shock.
- Pluggable module design (with anti-vibration locking clip) allows for simple replacement at end-of-life.
- An indicator shows when the SPD protection modules require replacement.
- Remote signal contact can indicate the protector’s status through interfacing with a building management system.
Application
- Use on three-phase mains supplies and power distribution systems for protection against partial direct or indirect lightning strikes.
- ESP 415T1/25/XXX versions for use with Class I or II LPS.
- ESP 415T1/12.5/XXX versions for use with Class III or IV LPS; or exposed overhead three-phase power lines where no LPS is fitted.
- ESP 415T1/X/TNS versions also cover TN-C-S earthing systems.
Installation
The SPD is to be installed in the main distribution board with connecting leads of minimal length. The protector should be fused and is suitable for attachment to a 35 mm top hat DIN rail.
