Product details
Configured for single-phase TN-S supplies, this Surge-Trap STPT12 arrester uses identical 275V cartridges on both poles rather than the neutral spark gap needed on a TT system. It carries 12.5kA of lightning impulse current per pole and holds the protection level to 1.3kV.
Key features
- Combined Type 1+2 / Class I+II protection for single-phase TN-S installations
- Two poles, both using the SP12-12K275V cartridge for 230V line-neutral duty
- Mechanically coded plug-in cartridges prevent replacement errors
- Visual and remote end-of-life indication built into the unit
- Reversible chassis for cable entry from either direction
Typical applications
Fit it at incoming supply panels on TN-S installations exposed to direct lightning effects: industrial and commercial buildings with an external lightning protection system, distribution centres and warehouses, water treatment and smart grid metering positions, and telecoms or data equipment rooms fed from a dedicated single-phase supply.
Compliance
Tested to IEC 61643-11 and EN 61643-11 as a Type 1+2 / Class I+II device, with a PA66 CT1 V-0 body and IP20 protection. BS 7671 requires transient overvoltage risk to be assessed, with Type 1 protection where partial lightning current may enter the installation and coordinated Type 2 protection downstream.
