How to Install the SPDN-B277-3Y Surge Protective Device

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring the SPDN-B277-3Y Surge Protective Device (SPD) to ensure optimal protection for your electrical system.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Voltmeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Knockout seals

  1. Pre-plan the installation

    Review all National and Local codes, ensuring the installation site is appropriate and that the SPD will be mounted as close to the panel as possible.

  2. Remove power from the panel

    Use a voltmeter to confirm that the panel is de-energized before proceeding with the installation.

  3. Mount the SPD

    Remove an appropriately sized knockout from the panel and secure the SPD using mounting screws. Ensure the SPD is level and firmly attached.

  4. Connect the conductors

    Connect the conductors to the SPD, ensuring they are short and straight. Label the conductors as follows: black for energized, white for neutral, green for ground, and orange for Hi-Leg (if applicable).

  5. Verify system bonding

    Ensure that the system is bonded per NEC® requirements and is free of hazards or faults before energizing the SPD.

  6. Energize the SPD

    Turn on the power to the panel and confirm the proper operation of the SPD indicators. If the audible alarm sounds, de-energize immediately and contact Littlefuse.
