The ABB OVR PV T1-T2 10-1500 P QS, order code 2CTB812100R1500, is a pluggable Type 1+2 photovoltaic surge protection device (SPD) designed to protect high-voltage DC photovoltaic installations against lightning currents and transient overvoltages. As part of the ABB OVR PV surge protection range, it provides coordinated protection for solar PV arrays, DC distribution equipment and inverter inputs operating at up to 1500 V DC.
Designed specifically for photovoltaic applications, the OVR PV T1-T2 10-1500 P QS provides an impulse current (Iimp) of 10 kA with a 10/350 µs waveform, a maximum discharge current (Imax) of 40 kA and a nominal discharge current (In) of 20 kA. This combination enables the device to handle both high-energy lightning-current impulses and transient surge currents that may otherwise damage sensitive PV equipment.
With a 1500 V DC maximum continuous operating voltage (Ucpv) and a 5 kV voltage protection level (Up), this SPD is engineered for modern high-voltage photovoltaic systems. Its pluggable QuickSafe construction, integrated thermal disconnection and visual status indication simplify inspection and maintenance while helping maintain dependable surge protection throughout the PV installation.
Photovoltaic installations can be exposed to high-energy lightning currents and transient overvoltages because of their exposed arrays, extensive DC cabling and connection to sensitive power-electronic equipment. A Type 1+2 photovoltaic SPD combines lightning-current protection with Type 2 surge protection, providing coordinated protection against both 10/350 µs lightning impulses and 8/20 µs transient surge currents.
The ABB OVR PV T1-T2 10-1500 P QS is designed for demanding 1500 V DC photovoltaic applications where increased lightning-current capability is required. Its 10 kA impulse-current rating, 40 kA maximum discharge current and pluggable construction make it suitable for protecting PV arrays, combiner boxes, DC distribution equipment and inverter inputs while simplifying ongoing inspection and cartridge replacement.
