NOTICE
LOSS OF BRANCH CIRCUIT POWER / LOSS OF SURGE SUPPRESSION
• Perform periodic inspection of the surge protective device status indicator lights as part of the preventative
maintenance schedule.
• Promptly replace the surge protective device when an alarm state exists.
• Use dry contacts to signal an alarm state to the central supervisory system for unmanned, inaccessible, or
critical installations.
• Use multiple surge protective devices to achieve redundancy for critical applications.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.
At end-of-life conditions, Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) can lose their ability to suppress power system
transient voltage spikes and attempt to draw excessive current from the line. This SPD is equipped with
overcurrent and overtemperature components that will automatically disconnect the surge suppression
elements from the mains should the surge suppression elements reach end of life. Tripping of the branch
circuit breaker or fuse feeding the SPD can occur. Mitigate the tripping of the branch circuit breaker or fuse
feeding the SPD by coordinating the surge suppression elements with the branch circuits.

• Do not energize the surge protective device until the electrical system is completely installed, inspected and
tested.
• Ensure all conductors are connected and functional.
• Verify the voltage rating of the device and system prior to energizing.
• Perform high-potential insulation testing, or any other tests where surge protective device components will be
subjected to voltages higher than their rated turn-on voltage, with the neutral and surge protective device discon-
nected from the power source
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Voltage Protection Ratings (VPRs)
To maintain the voltage protection ratings, #12 AWG wire must be utilized to connect the STV100K Series to
your facility’s power grid.
Wire Sizing/Routing
Phase, N, and GND wires are #12 AWG. NO, NC, and COM relay wires are #18 AWG. To reduce the wiring
impedance to surge currents, we recommend the phase, neutral (if required), and ground conductors to be
twisted together and routed in the same raceway (conduit). Avoid any sharp bends in the conductors. All
wiring must comply with the National Electrical®Code (NEC®), Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and applicable
local codes.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
• Do not supply more than 24VDC / 24VAC and no more than a current of 2 A to contacts.
• Conrm that the Surge Protective Device voltage rating on the module or nameplate label is not less than the
operating voltage.

Before making connections to the unit, verify that the unit model number
and nameplate voltage rating are appropriate for connection to the intended
power source. See Table 1 for voltage rating applications with typical power
source congurations.
1. Turn off all power supplying this equipment before working on or inside
equipment.
2. It is recommended that a 20A circuit breaker be used for installation and
connection to the service panel.
3. Connect the white neutral wire of the SPD (if provided) to the neutral of
the supply. Connect the green ground wire of the SPD to source ground.
4. Connect each Black Phase Wire to corresponding phase on the service
panel. For delta high leg units, ensure the high leg is connected to phase
B of the SPD so they do not interfere with proper operation.
5. If you are not using the relay contacts for remote sensing, cut and
insulate the orange COM wire, the blue NC wire, and the yellow
NO wire in the conduit. For remote sensing, wires are connected to
COM, NC, and NO respectively.
6. Replace the barrier, cover/door and/or trim to the equipment.
7. Equipment may be re-energized after all the above steps are complete.
NOTES:
• Figure 2 is a three-phase wye. A three-phase delta will have no neutral wire. For a three-phase delta high
leg, Phase B will be the high leg. A split phase unit will have no Phase C and can be labeled Line 1 and
Line 2.
• A single-phase L-N unit will have one black phase wire, a white neutral wire, and a green ground wire. A
single-phase L-L unit will have two black phase wires and the green ground wire.
• Summary alarm Form C (1 NO and 1 NC) relay contacts may be provided for remote indication of a loss
of surge protection. This indication may also consist of a phase loss or undervoltage condition.
• Summary alarm Form C relay contacts are rated 5 A at 125 VAC maximum with a power factor of 1.0. For
units with Summary Alarm Contacts, access to the contacts are provided via #18 AWG wires (yellow NO,
orange COM, and blue NC).
Applying Power
Apply power to the SPD and ensure status indications are normal. Under normal conditions, the green LEDs
are illuminated and the red “Service” LED is extinguished. If normal status indication does not exist, see
“Troubleshooting.”
