The Basic Feature Package has the following features: 

• 

Green LEDs: Illumination indicates the phase is fully protected, 

and operating normally, with all protection active and available.  

Green LEDs also indicate Neutral to Ground protection on units 

with a Neutral wire. Green LEDs do not indicate on/off status of 

power.

• 

Red LEDs: Illumination indicates a loss of protection, and that one 

or more protective devices are now inactive and unavailable for 

that Phase. Red LEDs also indicate Neutral to Ground protection 

on units with a Neutral wire. Red LEDs do not indicate on/off sta-

tus of power.

3.3 SPD Display Rotation

The SPD display can be rotated on the SPD Max enclosure, up to 

360 degrees. This allows you to position the display for the best vis-

ibility regardless of the position in which the SPD is installed.
Rotations are at 90, 180, and 270 degrees. Reposition the SPD dis-

play as follows:

1.  Turn off power to the unit.
2.  Remove the two phillips head screws that hold the display.
3.  Rotate the display to the desired position. Be careful not to over-

stress the display ribbon cable.

4.  Place the display back onto the SPD Max enclosure and carefully 

align the display gasket to maintain the NEMA4/4X rating.  Again, 

be careful not to overstress or crimp the ribbon cable.

5.  Re-install the two phillips head screws. Tighten screws to 1.35 

Nm (12 in-lbs).

6.  Restore power to the unit.

3.4  SPD Status Board (Dual SPD Applications Only)

SPD Max Series devices with a S, U, W or Y suffix, SPMxxxxxxxxY, 

contain two internally mounted surge devices and a Dual SPD Status 

Board.  The SPD Status board is internally mounted in the SPD Max 

enclosure and is used to indicate which SPD in a Dual SPD Max 

Series device has been compromised or lost.  To check the SPD 

Status Board open the SPD Max Series enclosure lid by loosening, 

but not removing, the 7 screws that secure the lid to the base of 

the enclosure.  Carefully open the lid and secure it, if necessary, to 

ensure it does not close prematurely.  The Status board has two red 

LEDs; one LED will monitor SPD1 and the other will monitor SPD2.  

SPD1 is identified as having the (gray) ribbon cable connected to the 

front panel display.
Absent of any phase failures the two red LEDs will be off.  If a phase 

failure occurs on a SPD, the front panel display will show which 

phase had a failure, and the SPD Status board will illuminate one of 

the two red LEDs indicating which SPD had the failure and needs 

replaced.  For example: if a Phase C failure occurs on SPD2, the 

green LED for Phase C on the front panel display turns off and the 

corresponding red LED turns on.  Additionally, the SPD2 red LED on 

the SPD Status board will illuminate.
If both SPDs exhibit a phase failure (same phase or different phases) 

the red LEDs for SPD1 and SPD2 will turn on.
