Place of installation
The range of protection offered by the arresters is restricted, which is why the surge arrester should be
installed as close as possible to that part of the system being protected. The distance between
grounded or live components and adjacent arresters or their control components should be selected on
the basis of the relevant regulations.
Note
The arresters must be installed or suspended vertically. If they need to be installed in a
non-vertical position, you should first contact the manufacturer.
Mounting the components
The individual components for mounting are shown in the drawing in [=> on page 15].
