Technical Specifications

 
1. METER BASE SURGE ARRESTOR
 
Applications

120 VAC-240 VAC Surge Arrestor for residential usage. Installed at wattmeter, safely clamps and dissipates lightning induced AC line high voltage current impulses going to a residence. Also protects against AC line temporary overvoltage conditions.

 
Features
 
  • 40,000 amp peak capability, each 120 VAC leg
  • 210 VAC, continuous 5 minute, temporary overvoltage clamping capacity.
  • Lowest, reliable voltage clamping level.
  • Safety fusing, both 120 VAC legs
  • Patented LED "unit good" indicators, both 120 VAC legs
  • Fire-proof and explosion-proof polycarbonate glass-fiber reinforced enclosure with matching mounting connector
  • Sealed unit except for mounting connector wiring opening
  • For less inductance, 10# AWG tinned wires
