FAQs
Installation starts with powering down the panel, then removing the adjacent breaker to access the bus. The BRPSURGE10CS plugs onto the Type BR bus and wires to the protected L-N and L-L circuits. Confirm 50/60 Hz compatibility, verify the device is in the correct position for plug-on neutral operation, and re-energize to test protected circuits.
Yes, BRPSURGE10CS is rated for 50/60 Hz systems. It provides two-pole L-N and L-L surge protection with a 10 kA interrupt rating, 10 kA nominal discharge current, and a 20 kA surge current rating, helping protect sensors, relays, drives, and control electronics from transients.
The device carries UL 1449 certification and cUL recognition, signaling compliance with recognized safety standards and reliability for both North American and international markets. These certifications help satisfy regulatory requirements, support quality assurance programs, and simplify supplier qualification for engineers and procurement teams.
BRPSURGE10CS provides L-N and L-L protection with a maximum operating voltage of 150 V L-N and 300 V L-L, a 10 kA interrupt rating, and 20 kA surge current. This combination helps shield control circuits, PLCs, and motor starters from transient events, reducing the likelihood of nuisance trips and component damage.
By limiting surge-related faults, BRPSURGE10CS can lower downtime and extend the life of sensitive electronics, sensors, and drives. The compact plug-on design reduces installation time and panel modification costs, delivering lower maintenance intervals and improved overall system reliability for modern manufacturing lines.
