Product details
Three-phase TT installations put the heaviest duty on the neutral-to-earth path, and this four-pole Surge-Trap STPT12 answers it with a 50kA cartridge on that pole alongside 12.5kA line-to-neutral protection on each phase. It is the incoming-position arrester for 230/400V TT supplies.
Key features
- Combined Type 1+2 / Class I+II protection for three-phase TT installations
- Three 12.5kA line cartridges plus a dedicated 50kA neutral-to-earth cartridge
- Voltage protection level held to 1.3kV line-neutral and 1.5kV neutral-earth
- Mechanically coded plug-in cartridges, replaced without disturbing the wiring
- Visual and remote end-of-life indicators as standard
Typical applications
This is the intake arrester for exposed three-phase TT sites: farms and agricultural estates, water and wastewater treatment works, quarries and outdoor process plant, telecoms compounds, wind and solar installations, and industrial units on their own earth electrode with an external lightning protection system.
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 for enclosure mounting. BS 7671 requires transient overvoltage risk to be assessed, with Type 1 protection where partial lightning current may enter the installation.
