The power arrester is not provided and the user shall purchase it to address the practical requirement.
Precautions for installation:
Make sure that the PE terminal of the power arrester has been well-grounded;
After connecting the switch AC power plug to the socket of the power arrester (lightning protection socket),
lightning protection function implements if the RUN LED is Green and the ALARM LED is OFF.
If the ALARM LED on the power arrester is Red, you shall check what the reason is, poor grounding connection
or the reversed connection of the Null and Live lines: Use the multimeter to check the polarity of the power socket
for the arrester when the LED is Red, if the N line is on the left and the L line is on the right, the arrester PE
terminal is not grounded; if the L line is on the left and the N line is on the right, the polarity of the arrester power
cable shall be reversed; if the LED is still Red, it is confirmed that the arrester PE terminal has not been
grounded.
