Product details
Mersen's Surge-Trap STPT2 is the distribution-board arrester in the pluggable range, and this two-pole version is configured for single-phase TT systems. It handles a 40kA maximum discharge current, clamps at 1.3kV line to neutral, and signals its own end of life locally and remotely.
Key features
- Type 2 / Class II protection for single-phase TT distribution boards
- Two-pole TT configuration with a dedicated neutral-to-earth cartridge
- Imax of 40kA and In of 20kA at a 1.3kV line-neutral protection level
- Mechanically coded plug-in cartridges prevent replacement errors
- Visual and remote end-of-life indicators, with a 25ns response time
Typical applications
Type 2 devices belong at supply distribution panels, either downstream of a Type 1 arrester or as first-stage protection where there is no external lightning protection system and no direct strike risk. On TT systems that means rural and agricultural boards, pumping and telemetry stations, site and temporary supplies, LED outdoor lighting panels and telecoms cabinets.
Compliance
Tested to IEC 61643-11 and EN 61643-11 as a Type 2 / Class II device, with a PA66 CT1 V-0 body and IP20 protection for enclosure mounting. BS 7671 requires the risk from transient overvoltages to be assessed, with coordinated surge protection provided where the consequences justify it.
