INSTALLATION
Refer to the procedure and diagram shown to connect the
SPDV60-300.
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 (SPDV60-300) 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.
•
** For installation adjacent to an M.E.N. link, use
as shown.
•
** For installations remote from the M.E.N., a
separate N-E protector is required (SPD50Ngi).
•
Always use the correct size HRC fuses.
•
For services >160A, use 160A fuses. For services
<160A, no fuse is necessary however an SPD
fault may cause a loss of power to the site.
•
Always use Gg or Gl-rated fuses. Do not use
delay types or ‘semiconductor’ fuses.
•
For 80A domestic supplies, no fuse is necessary.
2. INSTALL
•
Locate a fuse position as close as possible to the
Main Switch.
•
Install fuseholders or fuse-switch.
•
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.
•
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.
•
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
2
.
4. NOTES:
•
160A fuses are rated such for maximum surge
rating. On services below 160A, high-level surges
may cause disconnection of the supply.
•
Wiring from fuse to SPD is carrying surge currents
only, not load current. This means that smaller
cables may be used than is normal for the current
rating.
•
If using under-sized cables, some energy
authorities require double insulation (i.e. sleeving)
of the cables.
•
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 –
unit may be damaged.
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.
