Why Choose the ABB OVR PV T1-T2 10-1500 C QS Replacement Surge Protection Cartridge?

The ABB OVR PV T1-T2 10-1500 C QS is a replacement surge protection cartridge for compatible ABB OVR PV combined Type 1 and Type 2 surge protective devices used in photovoltaic installations. Designed for the ABB OVR PV QuickSafe range, it enables a protection module to be replaced without replacing the complete SPD assembly or disturbing the installed DIN-rail base and associated wiring.

Engineered for photovoltaic systems up to 1500 V DC, the OVR PV T1-T2 10-1500 C QS provides an impulse current rating of 10 kA using the 10/350 µs lightning-current waveform and a nominal discharge current of 30 kA using the 8/20 µs surge waveform. Its combined Type 1 and Type 2 characteristics make it suitable for restoring both lightning-current and transient-overvoltage protection in compatible ABB photovoltaic SPDs.

The cartridge incorporates ABB's QuickSafe technology and visual status indication for straightforward maintenance. With a 1500 V DC rating, IP20 protection and pluggable construction, it provides a practical replacement solution for demanding commercial, industrial and utility-scale photovoltaic installations.
