    FAQ

    Common questions about LY1-12.5/3(S)+1 3P+N pluggable Type 1+2 AC surge protective device selection and application.

    What is LY1-12.5/3(S)+1 used for?

    LY1-12.5/3(S)+1 is used for 3P+N AC surge protection in low-voltage distribution systems. It helps limit transient overvoltage in L-N and N-PE protection paths.

    What does 3P+N mean?

    3P+N means the SPD is designed for three-phase plus neutral systems, with protection paths between L-N and N-PE.

    What is the role of MOV and GDT?

    The MOV helps clamp transient overvoltage quickly, while the GDT supports high-energy discharge, especially in the N-PE protection path.

    What surge ratings does this SPD provide?

    This model provides 12.5kA / 50kA impulse discharge current Iimp, 20kA / 50kA nominal discharge current In, and 50kA / 100kA maximum discharge current Imax for L-N / N-PE protection paths.

    What voltage options are available?

    Available L-N maximum continuous operating voltage options include 75V, 150V, 275V, and 320V AC. The N-PE continuous operating voltage is 255V.

    What should be confirmed before ordering?

    Please confirm voltage rating, 3P+N system design, L-N / N-PE protection mode, backup fuse, DIN-rail space, wiring cross-section, and remote contact requirement before ordering.
