Installation (Overvoltage)

Category

Terminals on this product may have different installation (overvoltage) category designations. The
installation categories are:

CA T III Distribution-level mains (usually permanently connected). Equipment at this level is

typically in a fixed industrial location.

CA T II Local-level mains (wall sockets). Equipment at this level includes appliances, portable

tools, and similar products. Equipment is usually cord-connected.

CA T I Secondary (signal level) or battery operated circuits of electronic equipment.

Pollution Degree A measure of the contaminates that could occur in the environment around and within a product.

Typically the internal environment inside a product is considered to be the same as the external.
Products should be used only in the environment for which they are rated.

Pollution Degree 2 Normally only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs. Occasionally a

temporary conductivity that is caused by condensation must be
expected. This location is a typical office/home environment.
Temporary condensation occurs only when the product is out of
service.
