APPLICATION NOTES
1. Thoroughly read instructions before installing SPD unit.
2. This product is designed to protect against momentary transient overvoltage events.
3. This product may not protect against nearby lightning strikes.
4. This device features internal protection that will disconnect the surge protective component at the end of its useful life but will maintain power to the load-now unprotected. If this situation is undesirable
for the application, follow the manufacturers instructions for replacing IModule™ units.
5. Observe warnings and instructions on front panel and unit label of product.
DEFINITIONS
Type 2 SPD: A typical type 2 SPD installation will be connected to the load side of the service panel and is intended to be installed with overcurrent protection to the SPD.
INSTALLATION:
1. Verify system voltage.
2. Make sure SPD is correctly rated for your system.
3. Determine mounting location of SPD unit.
The SPD unit should be located as close as possible to the load to be protected.
4. Mount enclosure
- Remove dead front from SPD unit.
- Disconnect power to SPD unit at power source before installation.
- Remove needed knockout from SPD unit once wire routing has been determined.
- Only one conduit connection may be made to the SPD enclosure.
- Mount enclosure using suitable fasteners in locations shown below. Do not rely on conduit fitting to support SPD unit.
5. Follow wiring diagram for all connections. (located within instruction sheets and SPD unit).
- Lead lengths can be replaced at terminal; splicing of leads is not recommended.
- Cut all wires to a minimum suitable length while maintaining a 4” recommended bend radius.
- Do not coil excess wire.
- Make sure all connections are secure.
- Replace dead front.
6. Energize SPD unit
- Flip circuit breaker to ON position at service panel or disconnect switch(es).
- Indicators: Each IModule™ has a blue LED to indicate the SPD unit has power and a green LED to indicate that the IModule™ is providing protection.

SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS:
The IModule™ units will absorb the energy of the surges to protect the connected load. If the green LED is OFF, the IModule™ is no longer providing protection and should be replaced as soon as possible.
All three of the removable IModule™ units must be replaced every three years to maintain the connected equipment warranty.
TO REPLACE IModule™ UNITS:
1. POWER MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE IModule™ BEFORE REPLACING.
2. Disconnect power to SPD unit at service panel and/or disconnect switch(es) before servicing.
3. Remove IModule™ to be replaced by firmly pulling straight out from SPD unit. The module door within the unit will close once the IModule™ is removed.
4. Make sure IModule™ is correctly rated for system.
5. Place new IModule™ back into SPD unit. Make sure IModule™ alignment key is oriented correctly when inserting.
6. Make sure the IModule™ is fully seated.
7. Re-energize SPD unit.
8. Verify the blue and green LED’s within each IModule™ are lit.
