DC Voltage Photovoltaic System Instructions – Do Not Use for AC Voltage Installation

Save These Instructions - This manual contains important instructions that shall be followed

during installation and maintenance of the power system.

Presently, there is no dedicated UL standard

for higher voltage DC SPDs. The following

SPDees comply with most recent regulatory

actions including UL 1449 Third Edition

Listing (VZCA.E321351) and compliance to

the UL Certication Requirement Decision

(CRD) regarding DC rated SPDs for

Photovoltaic Systems. UL 1449 certication

requires AC voltage specific language,

which is also included below.

Thank you for choosing an APT SPDee Surge Protective Device (SPD). SPDee is a high quality, high

energy surge suppressor designed to protect sensitive equipment from damaging transient overvoltages.

SPDee is parallel connected such that circuit ampacity is unlimited. Proper installation is important to

maximize performance. Please follow steps outlined herein. These instructions are not intended to replace

national or local codes. Follow all applicable electrical codes to ensure compliance.

UL 1449 Third Edition (Sept 2009), 2008 NEC

Article 285 and CSA C22.1 (CEC) generated substantial

changes regarding AC voltage SPDs.

Be aware that photovoltaic systems generate maximum

voltage at coldest temperatures and brightest light. For

example, full sunup after a cool/cold night produces

maximum voltage on photovoltaic systems. The system’s

maximum voltage rating should take this into account.

The following graphic on the SPD’s label represents DC

voltage:

ENGLISH

▪Read this manual in entirety prior to installing

▪Only qualied licensed electricians should install or service SPDs

▪SPDs should never be installed or serviced when energized or during electrical storms

▪Use appropriate safety precautions including Personal Protection Equipment

▪Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, and/or

equipment damage

▪When used in outdoor applications, customer must seal the conduit nipple using

watertight ttings (not included) to ensure a watertight connection
