INSTALLATION 

Refer to the procedure and diagram shown to 
connect the SPDT60-255. 

PROCEDURE:

 

1. CHECK 

• 

Always work safely – disconnect power 
before making connections. 

• 

All wiring must be carried out by suitably 
qualified personnel according to the 
applicable standards. 

• 

Check for correct operating voltage and 
power system. This model (SPDT60-255) is 
designed for power systems in the range of 
220-250V(380-440V). 

If your power system 

is “delta” (i.e. ungrounded), or a different 
voltage, this model is not suitable

.

 Please 

contact your supplier. 

• 

Connect only between Neutral and Earth. 

• 

No fuse is necessary.  

2. INSTALL 

• 

Locate a suitable position for the SPD, 
ensuring adequate space for cables. Do not 
install above heat-generating objects or in 
any position that is exposed to weather. 

• 

Plan for cables as short as possible. 

• 

Install unit to DIN-rail in switchboard or 
cabinet. 

3. CONNECT 

• 

Connect wiring - refer to connection 
diagrams. If using stranded cable, always 
use wire ferrules for lowest resistance and to 
prevent damage to the wire. 

• 

If connecting with Eaton SPDV60 SPDs, use 
supplied neutral linking bar. 

• 

Use a suitably-rated cable for power 
connections. Cable should be rated for 
operation at the system voltage and should 
be 6mm

2

 to 25mm

2

• 

Use short cables for all connections or 
protection will be reduced.

 

• 

Use a suitably-rated cable for alarm 
connections. Cable should be rated for 
operation at the system voltage and should 
be 0.5mm

2

 to 1.5mm

NOTES:

 

• 

Maximum alarm relay resistive load is 2A.

 

• 

Unplug the alarm connector for termination.

 

• 

It is recommended not to connect the alarm 
contacts to AC mains circuits if possible, to 
prevent flashover from surges on the AC line. 
Connect to a PLC or BMS if available.

 

• 

Do not Megger test cabling with unit 
connected.

 

EARTHING 

For proper operation, all surge diverters rely upon a 
good earth connection: 

• 

The main earth wire (from earth link on 
switchboard to ground rod or system) MUST be 
as short and direct as possible.  Extra cable must 
not be looped. 

• 

Earth connections from the unit to neutral or earth 
link 

MUST

 be as short as possible. 

 

 
Failure to consider the above points can result in 
improper operation of the unit and possible 
damage to the installation.
