Voltage Rating

SpikeShield® Non-Modular Surge Protective Device (SPD)

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH

Confirm the SPD voltage rating on the module or nameplate label is the same as the operating voltage.

Failure to follow these instruct ions will result in death or serio us injury.

Prior to mounting the SPD, verify that the device has the same voltage rating as the power distribution system in which it is installed. Compare the nameplate voltage or model number on the SPD with the nameplate of the electrical distribution equipment.

The specifier or user of the device should be familiar with the configuration and arrangement of the power distribution system in which any SPD is to be installed. The system configuration of any power distribution system is based strictly on how the secondary windings of the transformer supplying the service entrance main or load are configured. This includes whether or not the transformer windings are referenced to earth via a grounding conductor. The system configuration is not based on how any specific load or equipment is connected to a particular power distribution system. See Table 3 for the service voltage of each SPD.

Integral Switch The integral switch is a mechanical means for qualified electrical personnel to

isolate the entire surge suppressor to service the device’s components. The switch opens the phase and neutral connections to the surge protective device.

The integral switch feature allows the SPD device to be isolated for service without the necessity of interrupting power on the entire branch circuit. Turn switch handle to the OFF (O) position prior to opening the door of the unit. With the handle in the OFF (O) position, the SPD will be disconnected from the circuit and the circuit will not have surge suppression. Once the absence of voltage is verified, maintenance may now be performed inside the SPD enclosure. Upon completion of repairs, close the door of the unit and turn the handle to the ON (I) position.

Location of SPD Install Type 2 SPDs on the load side of the main Overcurrent Protection

Device (OCPD) to comply with NEC Article 285 for Type 2 SPDs. Locate the SPD as close as possible to the circuit being addressed to

minimize the wire length and optimize SPD performance. Avoid long wire runs so that the device will perform as intended. To reduce the impedance that the wire displays to surge currents, the phase, neutral, and ground conductors must be routed within the same conduit and tightly bundled or twisted together to optimize device performanc e.

Grounding

GROUNDING

HAZARDOUS TOUCH VOLTAGE

• Connect the SPD ground terminal to the building grounding grid structure.

• Use an appropriately sized equipment grounding conductor.

• When using metallic raceway or conduit: — Do not use the SPD ground unless augmented with an insulated

equipment grounding conductor installed inside the metallic raceway or conduit.

— Do not use isolated bushings to interrupt the metallic raceway or

conduit.

— Maintain electrical continuity at all raceway and conduit connections

using appropriate bonding devices.

• Do not use a separate isolated ground for the SPD.

• Verify proper equipment connection to the grounding system.

• Verify ground grid continuity by performing regularly scheduled inspections and testing as part of a comprehensive electrical maintenance program.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

The SPD product has leakage current to ground when energized and can present a hazardous touch voltag e .

The device has SPD components connected from phase to ground. To prevent hazardous touch voltage on the SPD enclosure during normal operation or during SPD end-of-life, it is critical that there be a robu st and effective connection to the building grounding structure. The grounding connection must utilize an equipment grounding conductor run with the phase and neutral (if present) connection of the power system. The SPD should not be connected to a separate isolated ground.

When metallic raceway is used as the wiring method, an insulated grounding conductor should be run inside the raceway and sized in accordance with all applicable codes. Maintain electrical continuity at all raceway connections using appropriate bonding devices and do not install isolating bushings to interrupt a metallic raceway run.

For best overvoltage suppression by the SPD, use a single-point ground system where the service entrance grounding electrode system is connected to and bonded to all other available electrodes, building steel, metal water pipes, driven rods, etc. (for reference, see IEEE 142-2007). The ground impedance measurement of the electrical system should be as low as possible, and in compliance with all applicable codes.

SPD rated for use on solidly-grounded power systems must not be connected to resistance-grounded (for example HRG) or ungrounded power systems. Such a connection can result in damage to the components within the SPD product.

LED Status Indicators The diagnostic display panel shows the status of the SPD module with

diagnostically controlled green/red LEDs. If a unit is operating correctly, all the phase LEDs will be illuminated green. To test the integrity of the diagnostics for each phase, push the button below the phase LEDs on the diagnostic display panel. The green LED will turn red and the alarm will sound, if the alarm is enabled. Releasing the test button will complete the test; the red LED will turn green and the alarm will shut off.

If an inoperable condition occurs on any phase, the audible alarm sounds and the corresponding phase LED on the diagnostic display panel is illuminated red. This indicates that the device needs service by qualified electrical personnel. The audible alarm can be silenced by pressing th e alarm enable/disable button. The alarm will silence and the green alarm LED will not be lit. The red phase LED will continue to be illuminated until the inoperative condition had been cleared.

On an SPD module (see Figure 9), if the left green LED is not lit, it indicates a loss of suppression from line-to-ground for that phase. If the right green LED is not lit, it indicates a loss of suppression from line-to-neutral for that phase. If the diagnostic display has power and both green LEDs are not lit the module should be replaced.

The dry contacts are designed for a maximum voltage of 24 Vdc / 24 Vac and a maximum current of 2 A. Higher energy applications may require additional relay implementation outside the SPD. Damage to the SPD’s relay caused by use with energy levels in excess of those discussed in this instruction bulletin are not covered by warranty. For application questions, contact Hubbell at 1-800-729-3406.

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH

• Use 600 Vac rated dry contact wiring.

• Dry contact wiring must have less than 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) exposed wire from the dry contact block.

• Maintain at least 1.0 in. (25 mm) separation between dry contact wiring and the power wiring in the enclosure.

Failure to follow these instruct ions will result in death or serio us injury.

Care must be taken in installing the dry contact wiring because the terminals are on a moving door. Avoid the door hinge, any switches, and the high voltage areas of the enclosure when routing the wiring. To avoid the door hinge, tie wrap any dry contact wiring to the existin g cable ha rness which crosses the hinge. Once the dry contact wiring is secured on a non-moving point of the enclosure, it is the user’s responsibility to maintain at least

1.0 in. (25 mm) separation between 600 Vac rated dry contact wiring and the power wiring in the enclosure.

OPERATION

Remote Monitor Option The remote monitor option (Figure 12) has two LEDs, one red and one

green, and an audible alarm with an enable/disable switch. Normal status is a lit green LED, and no audible alarm. To test the integrity of the remote monitor, press the push-to-test switch. If the alarm in enabled, the green LED will turn off, the red LED will turn on, and the alarm will sound. Releasing the switch will complete the test; the red LED will turn off, the green LED will turn on and the alarm will shut off.

If suppression on any phase is lost, the green LED will turn off, the red LED will turn on and an alarm will sound. The audible alarm can be silenced by pushing the alarm enable/disable button. The alarm will silence and the green alarm LED will not be lit. The red LED will continue to be illuminated until the inoperative condition has been cleared.

The remote monitor includes a 120 Vac to 12 Vdc adapter with a six-foot power cord. Connections are made to the SPD diagnostic panel with 3-position Form “C” type dry contacts (provided) and the appropriate length of solid or stranded 22 to 14 AWG wire (not provided).
