Surge Protection Made Simple™ for Wind Power Applications
IEC Class I Coordinated Lightning Current Arresters with High Follow Current
for 400-690 Volt, TNC, TNS & IT Systems
Description
The Cooper Bussmann®IEC Class I 400 and 690 Volt, onepole lightning current arresters feature local,
indication and optional remote contact signaling.
440V and 760V maximum continuous operating voltage
arresters protect installations against surges and direct
lightning strikes.
System & Application
TNC 400V/690V: 3x BSPS1400WE(R)
TNS 400/690V: 4x BSPS1400WE(R)
IT 690V: 3x BSPS1690WER
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.
