BSPD SPDs for switchgear and power distribution panels 

Instruction Sheet IS10207 Rev 3

Effective July 2015

3.2.4 SPD display rotation

Regardless of any configuration’s mounting position, best display 

panel visibility can be accomplished by rotating the display 180 

degrees, 90 degrees clockwise or 90 degrees counterclockwise.

NEMA 1 enclosures

1.  Follow all prescribed safety procedures and deenergize the 

electrical system to remove power from the unit.

2.  Remove and discard the perforated overlay material at the two 

opposite corners of the display panel.

3.  Remove the two phillips head screws that hold the display panel 

onto the SPD enclosure.

4.  Being careful not to overstress the display panel’s ribbon cable, 

rotate the display to the desired position.

5.  Place the display back onto the SPD enclosure. Again, be careful 

not to overstress or crimp the ribbon cable.

6.  Replace the two phillips head screws and tighten to 1.35 N•m 

(12 lb-in).

7.  Follow all prescribed safety procedures to restore power to the 

electrical system.

Condition

Probable Cause

Solution

Green LEDs ON (1 per phase) and one Green 

LED ON for Neutral/Ground Protection 

Normal operation 

N/A

Audible Alarm OFF, Form C (N.C.) contact in the 

CLOSED state 

Normal operation 

N/A

Phase Green LED is OFF, same Phase Red LED 

is ON, Audible Alarm is ON 

Phase protection compromised or lost 

Extended Temporary Overvoltage (TOV)

Significant surge event 

Replace SPD

Check electrical system for TOV sources, correct, replace SPD

Replace SPD 

Neutral/Ground Green LED is OFF,  

Neutral/Ground Red LED is ON,  

Audible Alarm is ON (for models with Neutral 

connections) 

Neutral/Ground protection is compromised or lost

Significant surge event 

Replace SPD

Replace SPD

All Phase Green LEDs OFF, all phase RED LEDs 

ON, Audible Alarm is ON 

All phase protection is compromised or lost

SPD rated voltage is less than system voltage

Extended Temporary Overvoltage (TOV)

Significant surge event 

Replace SPD

Replace SPD with correct voltage model

Check electrical system for TOV sources, correct, replace SPD

Replace SPD 

One of the display panel Red LEDs is ON.  

Audible Alarm is OFF 

Audible Alarm Silence button has been depressed 

and Alarm is silenced 

Normal operation

If power is cycled and a fault condition still exists, the Audible 

Alarm will reactivate 

All Green and Red LEDs are OFF, LCD display (on 

Surge Counter models) is OFF 

SPD is not connected to a an energized system

Power is OFF on two phases

Check system voltage at SPD connection

Check SPD connections

NEMA 4X Enclosures

1.  Follow all prescribed safety procedures and deenergize the 

electrical system to remove power from the unit.

2.  Open the enclosure’s door.
3.  Remove and discard the perforated overlay material at the two 

opposite corners of the display panel.

4.  Remove the two phillips head screws that hold the display panel 

onto the SPD deadfront.

5.  Being careful not to overstress the display panel’s ribbon cable, 

rotate the display to the desired position.

6.  Place the display back onto the SPD deadfront. Again, be careful 

not to overstress or crimp the ribbon cable.

7.  Replace the two phillips head screws and tighten to 1.35 N•m 

(12 lb-in).

8.  Close and secure the enclosure’s door so that its NEMA 4X  

rating is reestablished.

9.  Follow all prescribed safety procedures to restore power to the 

electrical system.

4.0 Troubleshooting

Many SPD failures result from improper installation. Once the SPD 

is properly installed, it is a highly reliable unit. If the SPD does 

not function properly, first confirm that the SPD is correct for the 

system voltage and type (Wye/Delta) and is properly installed (See 

Section 2, 

Installation

).

If the SPD malfunctions after it has been routinely operating, refer to 

Table 2, 

Troubleshooting Chart

. This troubleshooting chart lists con-

ditions, probable causes and solutions. Further assistance may be 

obtained by calling our Application Engineering Team between 7:00 

a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Central Time, at 1-855-287-7626 or sending an 

e-mail to [email protected].
