Frequently Asked Questions:

What does a Type 2 SPD do?

A correctly selected Type 2 SPD helps limit transient overvoltages. It cannot prevent every surge or guarantee that connected equipment will never be damaged.

Is this SPD suitable for residential use?

A qualified installer must confirm the SPD voltage rating, earthing arrangement, protection coordination and suitability for the distribution board. The 275 V UC marking alone does not establish suitability for every residential system.

What conformity documents should I check?

Check the exact model’s Declaration of Conformity and supporting documentation for its applicable standards. A CE mark is a declaration of conformity, not an independent test certificate.

Where should I install this SPD?

Have a qualified electrician select and install the SPD in a compatible distribution board, following the manufacturer’s instructions for connection length, earthing and backup protection.
