SurgePOD
Standard and Universal Surge Protective Device Modules
When a surge condition exceeds either the
Standard or Universal SPD module’s MCOV, the
patented Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) technology
becomes conductive to safely shunt the surge to
ground.
The same MOV technology also eliminates the
need for additional fusing in UL applications by
safely disconnecting the SPD module upon
reaching an overvoltage breakdown condition.
All Standard or Universal SPD modules are UL
Recognized 1449 3rd Edition for installation in Type
1 or Type 2 surge protective devices.
Optional remote contact signaling is accomplished
with a Normally Open (NO) microswitch that
closes upon the module reaching an overvoltage
breakdown condition.
Optional local visual indication is accomplished

Description
Bussmann Standard and Universal
SurgePOD modules are PCB-mountable for
original equipment applications.
Universal modules are primarily
differentiated from the Standard modules
by having consistent terminal spacing
dimensions on all Maximum Continuous
Operating Voltage (MCOV) ratings.
This consistent terminal spacing eliminates
the need for OEMs to maintain multiple
PCB designs.
Standard modules have two available
terminal lengths and spacing dimensions
vary by MCOV rating (see Standard module
dimensions for details).
with indicating tabs that protrude through the
device’s top upon the module reaching an
overvoltage breakdown condition.
