FAQ
Common questions about LY1-D20/1(S) single-pole pluggable Type 2+3 AC surge protective device selection and installation.
What is LY1-D20/1(S) used for?
LY1-D20/1(S) is used for downstream surge protection in sub-distribution boards and final equipment circuits. It helps limit transient overvoltage before it reaches sensitive electrical and electronic loads.
Is LY1-D20/1(S) a Type 2 or Type 3 SPD?
The product page classifies LY1-D20/1(S) as Class II+III / Type 2+3, making it suitable for coordinated downstream and final-distribution surge protection.
What discharge current ratings does it provide?
It provides 10kA nominal discharge current In and 20kA maximum discharge current Imax, both based on an 8/20μs current waveform.
What voltage options are available?
Available maximum continuous operating voltage options are 75V, 150V, 275V, 320V, 385V, and 440V AC. The correct version must be selected according to the nominal system voltage.
What is the benefit of the pluggable design?
The replaceable cartridge allows the protection module to be inspected or replaced without removing the permanently wired base, simplifying maintenance.
What should be confirmed before ordering?
Confirm the nominal system voltage, required Uc and Up level, single-pole protection arrangement, 125A maximum backup-fuse coordination, conductor size, DIN-rail space, and remote-contact requirement.
