The connecting wires do not carry supply current . Instead, they carry only short-duration currents that are associated with a transient event . These instructions do not cover all details, variations, or combinations of the equipment, its storage, delivery, installation, checkout, safe operation, or maintenance . If you require further information regarding a particular application or installation that is not covered in this manual, please contact Eaton’s Power Quality Technical Support at 1-800-809-2772 . Safety precautions A licensed/qualified electrician must complete all instructions described in this manual in accordance with the U .S . National Electrical CodeT, state and local codes, or other applicable country codes . All electrical codes supersede these instructions .  WARNING IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN CAUSE DEATH, INJURY, AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. FOLLOW ALL WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS. COMPLETELY READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INFORMATION IN THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL OR OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT. IMPROPER WIRING COULD CAUSE DEATH, INJURY, AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. ONLY LICENSED/QUALIFIED ELECTRICIANS WHO ARE TRAINED IN THE INSTALLATION AND SERVICE OF ELECTRICAL DEVICES ARE TO INSTALL THIS EQUIPMENT. USE APPROPRIATE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND EQUIPMENT FOR ARC FLASH PROTECTION. DURING NORMAL OPERATION, HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT INSIDE THE SPD. WHEN INSTALLING THE SPD, FOLLOW ALL SAFE WORK PRACTICES TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK.  CAUTION DO NOT PERFORM A HIGH-POT TEST WITH THE SPD CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DISCONNECT THE SPD DURING A HIGHPOT TEST WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE SPD. AFTER INSTALLATION, THIS DEVICE IS NOT REPAIRABLE AND CONTAINS NO SERVICEABLE PARTS. IF THE UNIT SHOULD MALFUNCTION OR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, CONTACT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN OR EATON CARE AT 877-ETN-CARE (877-386-2273). Table 1. Catalog numbering system In this example, Catalog Number CVX050-480Y identifies a CVX model with the following features and ratings: • Surge current rating of 50 kA peak per phase • Three-phase wye wiring configuration • Voltage range of 220/380 through 277/480 Vac Installation Refer to Table 1 and look at the label on the SPD to verify that the SPD’s voltage rating and wiring configuration matches that of the electrical system . Use a voltmeter to measure the system’s line voltage to ensure that the correct model of SPD is being installed . Damage to the SPD may result if it is connected to an electrical system of a higher voltage or different wiring configuration . Mounting The SPD can be mounted directly to the electrical panel or mounted to a wall using the enclosure’s internal mounting holes or optional external mounting feet . IMPORTANT CHOOSE A MOUNTING LOCATION FOR THE SPD THAT PROVIDES THE SHORTEST AND STRAIGHTEST POSSIBLE WIRING (LEAD LENGTH) FROM THE SPD TO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CONNECTIONS. EXCESSIVE LEAD LENGTH AND SHARP BENDS WILL DEGRADE SPD PERFORMANCE. IF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM USES AN ISOLATED GROUND, THE SPD MUST BE ISOLATED FROM GROUND USING INSULATED CONDUIT FITTINGS. WHEN USING CONDUIT, AVOID USING 90° ELBOWS AND KEEP THE CONDUIT RUN AS SHORT AND STRAIGHT AS POSSIBLE. a DC models only available in 50 kA.
