Why Choose the Mersen K1-2PG275-M Type 1+2 Surge Protection Device?

The Mersen K1-2PG275-M, product code 44120201, is a premium Type 1+2 Surge Protection Device (SPD) designed to protect single-phase TT (1Ph+N) electrical installations against lightning strikes and transient overvoltages. As part of the Mersen Surge-Trap® K1 Series, it combines coordinated line-to-neutral (L-N) and neutral-to-earth (N-PE) protection in a compact, pluggable two-pole assembly with an integrated remote signalling microswitch for continuous status monitoring.

Designed for installation at the main distribution board, the K1-2PG275-M features a 1+1 protection configuration, a maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc) of 275 V AC, and replaceable protection cartridges for fast maintenance. The built-in remote contact enables connection to building management systems (BMS), PLCs or alarm systems, allowing maintenance teams to receive immediate notification when replacement is required.

Offering a 12.5 kA lightning impulse current (Iimp), 50 kA maximum discharge current (Imax), 20 kA nominal discharge current (In) and a voltage protection level (Up ≤1.5 kV), the K1-2PG275-M provides reliable protection for commercial, industrial and infrastructure installations while complying with IEC 61643-11.

Key Advantages

  • Combined Type 1 + Type 2 surge protection.
  • Integrated remote signalling microswitch for status monitoring.
  • Designed specifically for TT (1Ph+N) electrical systems.
  • 1+1 coordinated protection for L-N and N-PE.
  • Pluggable cartridges simplify maintenance.
  • 50 kA maximum discharge current (Imax) per protection path.

Key Features

  • Manufacturer: Mersen
  • Series: Surge-Trap® K1
  • Model: K1-2PG275-M
  • Product code: 44120201
  • SPD Type: IEC Class I + II (Type 1+2)
  • Configuration: 1+1
  • Integrated remote indication microswitch.
  • Visual status indication.

Coordinated TT Surge Protection with Remote Monitoring

The Mersen K1-2PG275-M provides coordinated protection for both line-to-neutral and neutral-to-earth conductors within TT electrical systems. Its Type 1+2 design safely diverts lightning currents and switching surges before they can damage sensitive electrical equipment, making it ideal for installation at the origin of the electrical installation.

The integrated remote signalling contact enables maintenance personnel to monitor the operational status of the SPD from a building management system or PLC, ensuring rapid identification of end-of-life modules and reducing maintenance downtime.

Typical Applications

  • Main electrical distribution boards.
  • Commercial buildings.
  • Industrial facilities.
  • Residential electrical installations.
  • Solar PV systems.
  • Battery energy storage systems.
  • EV charging infrastructure.
  • Building management systems.
  • Telecommunications equipment.
