FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  

The SPD3i is designed to protect 3-phase power 
systems against damage from surges and spikes 
caused by lightning and other electrical sources. The 
unit is intended for point-of-entry or sub-board 
protection and is connected in parallel with the power 
system via HRC fuses. This unit is available in 
various models for different voltages and 
applications. Check that the model you have 
purchased is rated correctly for your power system. 

This model (SPD3Gi/A) is designed for TN-S and 
TT power systems in the range of 220-300V(380-
520V). If your power system is TN-C, TNC-S or IT, 
or of a different voltage, this model is NOT 
suitable

.  

 
Please contact your supplier for a suitable model to 
suit your application. 

 
OPERATION 

Two lamps on the front panel indicate the operation 
status of the unit. The ‘OK’ lamp indicates that power 
is applied to the unit and the ‘FAULT’ lamp indicates 
reduced protection. If the ‘FAULT’ lamp is lit it is likely 
that the unit is damaged and must be replaced. If the 
breaker/fuse is intact and power is definitely being 
supplied through the unit (check with meter) but the 
‘OK’ lamp doesn’t light then the unit is faulty and 
must be replaced.

  

 

WARRANTY

  

Eaton Power Quality warrants this unit against faulty 
parts and workmanship for a period of 12 months 
from the date of purchase. If this product fails to 
operate correctly, please contact your Eaton 
representative. This warranty doesn’t cover neglect 
or intentional misuse. As this product is intended for 
use in electrically harsh environments no claim is 
made of suitability for purpose. This unit is designed 
to reduce the likelihood of damage, not prevent it. 
Please also note that an excessive surge, such as 
from a direct lightning strike to the site or a power 
system fault, may cause damage to the unit and 
render it inoperable. A unit that has been damaged in 
this way is not warrantable.
