Siemens 1-Phase Type 2 Commercial Grade Surge Protection Device

Siemens Surge Protective Device

Aug 16, 2020

In todays electronic world, home electrical, phone and cable systems are incomplete unless they incorporate surge protection. Since many devices in the home are micro electronic based, it is not practical to solely rely on surge protected plug strips. Appliances, heating and cooling systems, garage door openers and even energy saving light bulbs are examples of equipment that can’t be surge protected by plug strips. The cost to repair or replace these items far exceeds the cost of a total home surge protection solution.

Siemens FirstSurge™ Surge Protection Device, 1-Phase Type 2 Commercial Grade, 120/240 VAC, 400 A, 50/60 Hz, 60 kA Short Circuit Current, 2350 J, 1 ns Response, Indicators: Audible Alarm/LED, NEMA 4X, Panel Mount, Wired Terminal, 8 in L x 3 in W x 4 in H
