Why Choose the Finder 7P.22.8.275.0020 Type 2 Surge Protection Device?
The Finder 7P.22.8.275.0020 is a Type 2 surge protection device (SPD) from the Finder 7P Series, designed to protect low-voltage electrical installations against transient overvoltages caused by induced lightning surges and electrical switching disturbances. Its two-pole configuration makes it suitable for compatible AC power distribution and electrical protection applications.
This surge protection device uses metal oxide varistor (MOV) technology to limit transient voltage spikes and divert surge currents away from connected electrical equipment. By reducing the effects of transient overvoltages, it helps protect sensitive control equipment, electrical components and distribution systems against surge-related damage.
With a 275 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage and a 20 kA nominal discharge current, the Finder 7P.22.8.275.0020 provides a practical solution for electrical installations requiring Type 2 surge protection. Its modular construction and 35 mm DIN rail mounting enable straightforward integration into electrical distribution boards, industrial control panels and suitable protection enclosures.

Reliable Surge Protection for Electrical Distribution and Automation Systems
Transient overvoltages can enter electrical installations through incoming power supplies, distribution wiring and switching operations. Surge protection devices such as the Finder 7P.22.8.275.0020 help reduce the impact of these disturbances by limiting excessive voltages and diverting transient surge currents through a suitably designed protection arrangement.
The Finder 7P Series supports electrical engineers and installers in protecting sensitive equipment within residential, commercial and industrial installations. Correctly selected Type 2 surge protection can help reduce the risk of damage to control systems, power supplies and electrical components while supporting reliable operation. The SPD must be coordinated with the installation earthing arrangement, upstream protective devices and applicable electrical installation requirements.
