5.2.3 Installation

 Installation: Surge Protector shall be installed and maintained by authorized professionals. This product adopts standard 35
mm Guide Card which is installed and fixed in Distribution Box (Cabinet). Kevin connection mode is recommended for Surge
Protector. parallel connection mode also can be used generally, but the connection wire should be not less than 16mm2
insulation wire with multiple copper cores, and the total length L limit within 0.5 m (see following chart).

Alarm terminals of Surge Protector are located above the surge protector; When remote monitoring is needed, remove the
wiring plug, the wires on the alarm respectively should be inserted into corresponding plug holes of wiring connection, tighten
the screw then replace plug (see the following chart). When wiring is completed, check and confirm the wiring is correct and
connection is reliable, turn on the power supply, then it can be put into use.

 Notes

When Surge Protector base is installed and maintained, Power Supply must be disconnected. Charged operation is strictly
prohibited in case of electric shock accident; L, N line should be respectively corresponding to L, N line of the surge protector
when they are installed, wrong connection is not allowed; The protective circuit and protective circuit or ground wire (tied)
wiring side by side isn’t allowed; cross-sectional area, length and connection mode of ground wire must conform to the
relevant standards, otherwise it is possible for Surge Protector cannot provide adequate protection; Surge Protector is in
normal use without special maintenance, only need to check whether the wires are loosen or not , whether the indicator
window of the module displays normal or not; When the instructions window of some lightning protection module displays red,
the lightning protection module has failed and should be changed in time; If the remote alarm is connected , the alarm will
issue a warning signal.
