Why Choose the Mersen 83020112 Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen 83020112 is a compact Type 2 surge protection device (SPD) designed to protect low voltage electrical installations from transient overvoltages. Part of the Mersen Surge-Trap® Pluggable STPT2 Series, it is specifically designed as a neutral protection module for surge protection assemblies and TT system configurations.
The STPT2-40K-N provides a 40 kA maximum discharge current (Imax) and 20 kA nominal discharge current (In), helping divert damaging surge energy safely away from connected electrical equipment. Its pluggable format allows fast cartridge replacement, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime after surge events.
With a compact 1 pole, 1 module DIN rail mounting design and reliable neutral protection performance, the Mersen 83020112 is ideal for use in coordinated surge protection systems within distribution boards, control panels and commercial or industrial electrical installations.
