Surge protector type T2, 3-pole, In: 20kA (8/20), Imax: 40kA, Uc: 275V AC RSP-T2-AC/3P 2617133

Electrical installation protection against overvoltage

This three-pole Type T2 surge protector is a key element in protecting electrical installations in residential and commercial buildings. Designed to work with AC power, it protects connected devices from the effects of lightning strikes and surges that can damage sensitive electronic components. Class II/B provides effective protection, minimizing the risk of failures and downtime.

Construction and application

This surge protector is intended for installation in electrical distribution boards, constituting the second line of defense against surges – after Type T1 protectors, installed in the main power supply. Its construction based on a combination of a varistor and a spark gap guarantees a quick and effective response to sudden voltage increases. The rated discharge current of 20kA (8/20) and the maximum discharge current of 40kA demonstrate its high efficiency, and the operating voltage of 275V AC makes it compatible with most standard installations.

Key features and benefits

• Effective protection: protects electrical devices from damage caused by surges, which translates into savings and increased system reliability.
• Three-pole design: provides comprehensive protection for three-phase electrical installations.
• High efficiency: rated discharge current of 20kA (8/20) and maximum discharge current of 40kA guarantee effective protection even with large surges.
• Fast response: the combination of a varistor and a spark gap ensures a lightning-fast response to sudden voltage increases, minimizing the exposure time of devices to damage.
• Compliance with standards: meets the required safety standards, confirming its quality and reliability.
• Easy installation: compact dimensions facilitate installation in existing electrical distribution boards.
• Reduced repair costs: prevents failures of devices caused by surges, reducing costs associated with repairs or equipment replacement.
• Increased safety: protects not only devices but also people from electric shock in the event of a failure caused by a surge.

This surge protector is characterized by a rated discharge current of 20kA (8/20 μs), a maximum discharge current of 40kA (8/20 μs), and a maximum continuous operating voltage of 275V AC. The protection level Up is ≤ 1.5 kV, and the response time is ≤ 25 ms. The maximum backup is 125 A gL/gG.

This surge protector is an investment in the safety and reliability of the electrical installation, which allows you to avoid costly failures and ensure the continuity of operation of connected devices. This is especially important for sensitive electronic devices such as computers, televisions and audio-video equipment.
