Surge Protection Made Simple™ for Wind Power Applications IEC Class II Surge Arresters for 230 Volt, TN & TT Systems Description The Cooper Bussmann® IEC Class II 230 volt, two-pole, modular surge arresters feature local, easy ID™ visual indication and optional remote contact signaling. The unique module locking system fixes the protection module to the base part. Modules can be easily replaced without tools by simply depressing the release buttons. Integrated mechanical coding between the base and protection module ensures against installing an incorrect replacement module. BSPM2230WE(R) BSPH2230WE(R) TN System Arrester The features of these two-pole device are for use as a single device. TT System Arrester For use as a single device in a 1-phase TT system. Remote Signaling Contact The three-pole terminal remote signaling contact versions have a floating changeover contact for use as a break or make contact, according to circuit concept.
