AC surge protectors for whole-home protection and LED lighting indoors and outdoors offered by Transtector
HAYDEN, Idaho – Transtector Systems in Hayden, Idaho, is introducing a line of panel-style AC surge protectors for LED lighting and whole-home surge protection in indoor and outdoor applications.
The products meet NEC Article 230.67 standards, which require new AC services that feed dwelling units to be equipped with a surge protector. Also, they are UL 1449 5th Edition Listed, meeting Underwriters Laboratories' standards for limiting voltage surges, energy absorption capacity, response time and reliability.
The 277-volt AC single-phase model is the most common for LED lighting. The versions with 120- and 240-volt AC split-phase are for dwelling units. Other models handle 208- and 120-volt AC Wye, 277 and 480-volt AC Wye and 480-volt AC Delta.
The AC surge protectors employ thermally protected metal oxide varistor (MOV) technology. MOV offers quick reaction to voltage spikes, clamping excess voltage levels almost instantaneously.
The outdoor surge protective devices come in panel-mount NEMA 4X enclosures that seal out dirt, dust, and water. Other features include low-voltage protection ratings and LED status indicators. In addition, no external backup fuse is required.
