FAQ
Common questions about LY1-12.5/2(S) pluggable Type 1+2 AC surge protective device selection and application.
What is LY1-12.5/2(S) used for?
LY1-12.5/2(S) is used for AC surge protection in low-voltage distribution systems. It helps limit transient overvoltage caused by lightning surges or switching events.
What does Type 1+2 mean?
Type 1+2 means the SPD is designed to handle impulse current from lightning surge events and also provide downstream surge limitation for AC distribution systems.
What voltage options are available?
Available maximum continuous operating voltage options include 75V, 150V, 275V, 320V, 385V, and 440V AC. Please select the voltage according to the system design.
What surge ratings does this SPD provide?
This model provides 20kA nominal discharge current In, 50kA maximum discharge current Imax, and 10kA or 12.5kA impulse discharge current Iimp depending on voltage rating.
What is the benefit of the pluggable design?
The pluggable module design allows easier inspection and replacement during maintenance, helping reduce wiring work and service time.
What should be confirmed before ordering?
Please confirm voltage rating, pole configuration, backup fuse, DIN-rail space, wiring cross-section, and remote contact requirement before ordering.
