The Lovato SG2C2PA320 is a compact Type 2 surge protection device (SPD) designed to protect AC power lines and connected electrical equipment against transient overvoltages. As part of the Lovato SG2 series, it features a plug-in cartridge design and provides coordinated surge protection for low-voltage electrical distribution systems.
Featuring a 2-pole configuration, 230 V AC rated voltage and 5 kA rated discharge current In (8/20 µs) per pole, the SG2C2PA320 provides dependable protection against transient surges associated with switching events and indirect lightning effects. Its maximum discharge current Imax is 15 kA, while the voltage protection level Up is less than 1.5 kV.
The SG2C2PA320 has a maximum continuous operating voltage Uc of 320 V AC and occupies only 1 DIN module. A frontal operating/end-of-life indicator simplifies visual status checking, while the replaceable plug-in cartridge allows convenient maintenance without replacing the complete base assembly.
Type 2 surge protection devices such as the Lovato SG2C2PA320 are designed to limit transient overvoltages in low-voltage AC electrical systems. When a surge occurs, the SPD provides a controlled path for surge current, helping limit the voltage reaching downstream equipment and reducing the risk of damage to sensitive electrical and electronic components.
The SG2C2PA320 combines a 5 kA nominal discharge current with a 15 kA maximum discharge capability and a voltage protection level below 1.5 kV. Its replaceable cartridge, thermal protection and visual status indication make it a practical solution for coordinated surge protection in industrial, commercial and building electrical distribution systems.
