The Mersen 83120005, also known as SP12-25K-N, is a robust Type 1+2 surge protection replacement cartridge designed for compatible Mersen Surge-Trap surge protection devices. It is used to help protect electrical installations from lightning currents and transient overvoltages in industrial, commercial and power distribution environments.

As part of the Mersen STP T12 25 Surge-Trap series, this replaceable neutral cartridge is engineered for installations requiring high-performance surge protection at the incoming power supply. Its plug-in format allows quick cartridge replacement during maintenance, helping reduce downtime while keeping the surge protection system operational.

With a 25 kA impulse current rating, 25 kA nominal discharge current and 255 V maximum continuous operating voltage, the Mersen 83120005 is suitable for demanding Type 1+2 surge protection applications where neutral line protection is required.

Reliable Surge Protection for Electrical Distribution Systems

Surge protection devices help protect electrical installations from transient overvoltages caused by lightning activity, switching operations and network disturbances. Type 1+2 SPDs are commonly installed at the origin of an electrical installation, particularly where external lightning protection or high exposure to surge events is present.

The Mersen 83120005 replacement cartridge allows maintenance teams to restore surge protection functionality without replacing the complete SPD assembly. This makes it a practical solution for panel builders, electrical contractors and facilities teams responsible for keeping critical power distribution systems protected.

Typical Applications

  • Incoming electrical distribution panels.
  • Neutral line surge protection in TT and TN systems.
  • Industrial switchboards and control panels.
  • Commercial building electrical distribution systems.
  • Installations with external lightning protection systems.
  • Maintenance replacement for compatible Mersen Surge-Trap devices.
