How to Install the STXR240P05A Surge Protective Device (SPD)
Installation guide for mounting and wiring the STXR240P05A Surge Protective Device (SPD).
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Watertight fittings (for outdoor applications)
- Verify System Compatibility
Confirm that the system voltage and configuration match the SPD's voltage and configuration. Refer to the product's nameplate or datasheet for specific values.
- De-energize Power
Turn off all power supplying the equipment. Verify that the equipment and all power sources are de-energized before proceeding. Follow safe electrical work practices and use appropriate PPE.
- Determine Mounting Location
Select a mounting location for the SPD that is as close to the equipment as possible, keeping leads straight and short. If using a breaker, identify its location (a 30A breaker is recommended). Position the SPD so the LED status indicator is visible.
- Mount the SPD
Mount the SPD according to Figure 1. For NEMA 4X installations, use appropriate customer-supplied gasket, fittings, and/or conduit to maintain the rating.
- Make Electrical Connections
Make electrical connections according to Figure 2. For optimum performance, trim leads to the shortest possible length, avoiding loops, coils, and sharp bends. For outdoor applications, ensure watertight connections using appropriate fittings.
- Energize and Verify Operation
Energize the system and confirm the proper operation of the green LED status indicator. A green LED indicates the unit is functioning correctly. If the LED is off, the unit may be damaged, the circuit may be de-energized, or the SPD leads may be disconnected.
