5. Setup jeung Instalasi
The EARU SPD is designed for easy installation on a 35mm DIN rail. Follow these general guidelines and refer to the specific wiring diagrams for your AC or DC system.
- Kakuatan Disconnection: Before starting any installation, ensure that the main power supply to the electrical system is completely turned off and locked out to prevent accidental re-energization.
- Pamasangan: Snap the SPD unit(s) onto a standard 35mm DIN rail within your electrical panel.
- Sambungan Wiring:
- Connect the surge protector directly to the main incoming line, typically after the main air switch or leakage protection device.
- For AC systems, connect the Line (L) and Neutral (N) wires to the corresponding terminals on the SPD.
- For DC systems, connect the Positive (+) and Negative (-) input wires to the corresponding terminals on the SPD.
- Grounding: Crucially, connect the ground wire from the SPD to the main grounding busbar of your electrical system. The ground line should be derived from the incoming line.
- Ensure all connections are secure and tightened to the specified torque.
- Verifikasi: After wiring, double-check all connections for correctness and tightness. Ensure no bare wires are exposed.
- Pamulihan Kakuatan: Restore power to the system. Observe the visual warning module on the SPD. It should display a indikator héjo, signifying normal operation.
Important Note: The circuit is dangerous. Please ensure installation is performed by a professional electrician.
5.1 Diagram Wiring
6. Parentah Operasi
The EARU SPD operates automatically to protect your electrical system. Once correctly installed and powered, it continuously monitors the voltage and diverts any detected surges to the ground, preventing them from reaching your sensitive equipment.
No manual intervention is required for its protective function during normal operation. The primary operational aspect for the user is to monitor the visual warning module.
- A indikator héjo confirms the SPD is functioning correctly and providing protection.
- A indikator beureum signals a fault, meaning the SPD has absorbed a significant surge and its protective element needs attention.
7. Pangropéa
To ensure continuous and effective protection, periodic maintenance of your EARU SPD is recommended:
- Inspeksi Visual: Regularly check the visual warning module on the SPD. If the indicator is beureum, it signifies a working state failure.
- Ngagantian modul: In case of a red indicator, the internal lightning protection module (cartridge) needs to be replaced. Ensure the power is off before attempting to replace the module.
- Ngagantian Unit: If the entire protector unit appears physically damaged or if replacing the module does not resolve the red indicator issue, the entire SPD unit should be replaced directly by a qualified electrician.
- Kabersihan: Keep the SPD and its surroundings clean and free from dust and debris to ensure proper ventilation and operation.
8. Cara ngungkulan
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your SPD.
8.1 Red Indicator on Visual Warning Module
Masalah: The visual warning module displays a red indicator.
Cukang lantaranana: The SPD has successfully diverted a surge, and its internal protective component (varistor) has reached its end-of-life or is damaged.
Solusi: The lightning protection module (cartridge) needs to be replaced. If the module is not replaceable or the entire unit is damaged, replace the complete SPD unit. Always disconnect power before replacement.
8.2 No Apparent Protection / Equipment Damage Despite SPD Installation
Masalah: Electrical equipment is still experiencing damage from surges, or the SPD does not seem to be functioning.
Cukang lantaranana: Incorrect installation, improper grounding, or the SPD is not adequately rated for the system's surge levels.
Solusi:
- Verify all wiring connections, especially the ground connection, according to the provided diagrams and safety guidelines.
- Ensure the SPD's voltage and current ratings (e.g., Uc, Imax, In) are appropriate for your specific electrical system and the expected surge environment.
- Consult a qualified electrician to inspect the installation and system compatibility.
9. Tips pamaké
- Solar Panel Systems (PV): For solar panel installations, ensure you select a DC SPD model with appropriate voltage ratings (e.g., DC 500V, 800V, 1000V) and surge capacities (e.g., 20-40KA or 30-60KA). These devices are suitable for protecting PV systems.
- Kelas panyalindungan: For AC systems, the devices are available in different protection classes (Type B, C, D, or T1, T2, T3). For DC systems, the models typically correspond to Type 2 (T2) or combined T1+T2 applications, depending on the specific model and installation requirements. Consult relevant electrical standards for your region to choose the correct class.
- Pamasangan profésional: Given the critical role of SPDs and the dangers of electrical work, always prioritize professional installation to ensure optimal performance and safety.
