Mounting
1. Locate the SPD between the meter and the main service circuit breaker panel. The SPD should be
mounted to an electrical box or enclosure.
2. For the best performance, try to mount the unit as close as possible to the service panel, in close proximity
to the breaker that will feed the Surge Protective Device.
3. Avoid sharp bends and turns, which will degrade the performance of the SPD. The weight of the SPD
should be supported to avoid necessary stress on the wiring connections.
Installing
1. Measure voltage at installation location between each Line and Neutral. System voltage must not exceed
the specified maximum continuous RMS voltage listed on the SPD label.
2. TURN OFF POWER at the installation location (usually by removing services to meter or disconnection of
service supply by utility).
3. Switch all distribution panel circuit breakers to OFF position to reduce possibly of accidental voltage on the
circuit.
4. Connect the SPD White (Neutral) wire to the Neutral service conductor, a grounding electrode conductor,
or the equipment grounding terminal in the service equipment.
For a Split-
Phase system: Connect Line 1 to one of the SPD’s Black wires and Line 2 to the remaining
Black wire.
See Figure 1
For a Three-
Phase system: Connect Line 1 to one of the SPD’s Black wires, connect Line 2 to the
other Black wires, and Line 3 to the remaining Black wire.
See Figure 2.
Keep all hook-up leads as short and straight as possible.
5. Restore power to the SPD and switch circuit breakers to
“ON” position to reconnect load. Verify that the
Green LED is illuminated.
If Green LED is not lit, remove power, re-check installation, repeat Step 2, and test again.
If Red LED is lit and the buzzer sounds, contact the manufacturer and replace the unit immediately.

Environment
The unit is designed for indoor or outdoor use in ambient temperature of -40C to +85C with a relative
humidity of 0% to 95%. The unit is provided in an industrial enclosure, which should not be installed in areas with
excessive dust, corrosive vapors, flammable materials or explosive atmospheres.
