INTRODUCTION
Transient voltage surges are short-term deviations from a desired voltage level or signal that can occur at any time. Such changes can result in an electronic device malfunction, or
cause extensive damage. Also termed "spikes", these occurrences take place as a result of magnetic field/inductive coupling or whenever the line current is interrupted. They can
originate from either inside a facility, or derive from outside utility lines. Sources within a facility involve loads that are switched, such as electric motors that are turned ON and OFF.
Outside transient influences involve utility grid switching.
DESCRIPTION
Leviton SPDs (Surge Protective Devices) are intended for use with sensitive electronic equipment and appliances with solid state circuitry that would benefit from protection against
damage caused by transient surges.
GENERAL INFORMATION
• This device is intended for single branch circuits ONLY.
• This device does not provide ground fault or overload protection.
• This device protects against surges at this module only.
• The indicator light denotes surge protection is effective when it is continuously ON.
• When the indicator light turns OFF, the device is no longer providing protection due to damage caused by excessive transient voltage surges. The entire unit must be replaced if
surge protection is required.
• Modules should be replaced as soon as possible after a failure is noted.
TO INSTALL
For SPD (OEM) Installation:
WARNING:
1. TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN OFF POWER AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE AND TEST THAT THE POWER IS OFF BEFORE WIRING!
2. Select mounting location for module.
3.
Use a test lamp to confirm that the circuit is NOT powered.
4. Prepare mounting location by drilling 2 holes 3.28" (8.3 cm) apart.
5. Remove 3/4" (1.9 cm) of insulation from each circuit conductor. Make sure the ends of wires are straight.
6. Connect wires per appropriate WIRING DIAGRAM as follows: Twist strands of each lead tightly together and, with circuit conductors, push firmly into appropriate wire connector.
Screw connectors on clockwise making sure no bare conductors show below the wire connectors. Secure each connector with electrical tape.
7. Restore power at circuit breaker or fuse. INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE.
NOTE: The indicator light should be ON. If it is NOT, consult an electrician.
For SPD (DIN and WM) installation:
WARNING:
1. TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN OFF POWER AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE AND TEST THAT THE POWER IS OFF BEFORE WIRING!
2. Select mounting location for module.
3.
Use a test lamp to confirm that the circuit is NOT powered.
4. FOR 3800-WM: Prepare mounting location by drilling 2 holes 3.28" (8.3 cm) apart.
5. Connect leads per appropriate WIRING DIAGRAM as follows: Cut White (Neutral) wire and strip insulation approx. 3/4" (1.9 cm) to expose bare copper. Pigtail together with a
short length of White insulated copper wire of the appropriate gauge. Secure the other end of the White pigtail lead tightly in terminal block located on top of the module labeled
"N" with terminal block screws. Cut Black (Hot) wire and strip insulation approx. 3/4" (1.9 cm) to expose bare copper. Pigtail together with a short length of Black insulated copper
wire of the appropriate gauge. Secure the other end of the Black pigtail lead tightly in terminal block located on top of the module labeled "L" with terminal block screws. Cut
Green (Ground) wire and strip insulation. Pigtail together with a short length of Green insulated #12-14 AWG copper wire. Secure the other end of the Green pigtail lead tightly
in terminal block located on top of the module labeled "G" with terminal block screws.
6. Twist strands of each separate wire connection tightly together with circuit conductor and push firmly into appropriate wire connector. Screw connectors on clockwise making
sure that no bare wire shows below the wire connectors (recommended torque: 4.5 in.-lbs.). Secure each wire connector with electrical tape.
7A. For 3800-DIN: Engage the module mounting clip on the DIN rail. Push down until locked.
7B. For 3800-WM: Mount the device with mounting tabs in the location where the holes were drilled.
8. Restore power at circuit breaker or fuse. INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE.
NOTE: The indicator light should be ON. If it is NOT, consult an electrician.
