FAQ

The Type 2 surge protective device is a Class II SPD designed by FEXLINK for secondary protection of distribution cabinets, capable of withstanding induced lightning surges of the 8/20μs waveform.
It is suitable for secondary power protection scenarios such as floor distribution cabinets, computer room PDU, and industrial equipment control cabinets.
Compared with Type 1 SPDs that handle direct lightning strikes, Type 2 SPDs mainly guard against induced lightning and switching overvoltages, with a smaller size and more economical unit price.
Mount it on a DIN rail inside the distribution cabinet, connect according to L/N/PE, and use it with an upstream backup protection circuit breaker.
