Surge Protective Devices Example Installations Surge Protective Devices defeats the effectiveness of the SPD, is a potential safety hazard, may cause equipment damage, is an NEC violation (reference NEC 250-51 and 250-54), and is not recommended. System Grounding and Bonding The performance and safety of any SPD system is dependent on proper grounding and bonding. Grounding is required for safety. Correct implementation also enhances equipment performance.
Surge Protective Devices Surge Protective Devices Troubleshooting / Servicing / Maintenance Troubleshooting If status failure indication occurs or Form C relay has changed states, a qualified electrician shall first determine if the systems voltage and proper phasing exists. Corrective Maintenance The Liebert SPD is designed for years of trouble-free operation. However, even the most reliable equipment may fail under abnormal conditions.
