INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(FIG.1)
CAUTION
Electricity is dangerous; follow safety rules. Never work on equipment with the
electricity turned “ON”. Be absolutely certain the power is turned “OFF” to the
circuit or device you are installing. Be sure you read and understand all of these
installation steps before you begin to install this Surge Protection Device. For
your protection, check and follow your local electrical codes. Do not touch
electric circuits or devices when you are wet or standing on a wet surface. Use
a circuit tester or AC voltmeter to be sure the electricity is “OFF” before you
touch wires or devices. This device is suitable for use on a circuit capable of
delivering not more than 25,000 rms symmetrical ampers, 240 volts maximum.
NOTE:
ELECTRICAL GROUND IS REQUIRED FOR THIS UNIT TO
FUNCTION PROPERLY AND SAFELY!
STEP 1
Select a mounting location for the Surge Protection Device (SPD) which will
allow convenient connection to the panel while keeping the lead wires as
short as possible. Use an AC voltmeter or circuit tester across two breaker
outputs to confirm that there is 240 volts between them. If the voltage is 0,
select a different breaker of equal amperage.
OPERATION
Both green indicator lights will be ON when power is present and the IG1240RC
is operating properly. If one of the indicator lights is OFF, check the breakers to
make sure that both are on and not tripped. If one or both of the green indicators
are OFF, and the red indicator is on, the IG1240RC is no longer protecting.
Replace the unit.
