Surge limiter insert type V20-C 0-280 5099609

Surge protection in the installation – reliable OBO Bettermann insert

This type 2 surge limiter insert, designated V20-C 0-280 (cat. no. 5099609), is a key element in protecting the electrical installation from the effects of sudden voltage increases. It is designed to work with dedicated OBO Bettermann surge limiter bases, ensuring quick and easy installation – the insert can be replaced without the use of additional tools.

This insert, thanks to its dynamic disconnecting element, effectively protects devices from damage caused by surges, and the optical status indicator allows for easy identification of the need for replacement. High electrical conductivity and long service life guarantee reliable operation for a long time.

Application and compatibility

The V20-C 0-280 insert is a universal solution, compatible with various network systems: TN, TN-C, TN-S, TT and TN-C-S. It can be used in installations with a maximum voltage of 280V AC and 350V DC. It accepts conductor cross-sections up to 35 mm², making it suitable for both home and commercial installations. The rated discharge current of 20 kA (peak value) and the maximum discharge current of 40 kA provide effective protection against the effects of lightning strikes and other network disturbances. Short-circuit strength at 1.3 kA further increases the safety of the installation.
