INTERMATIC AG2401C-IND 120-240VAC Surge Arrester With Indicator Light

The AG2401C-IND is a Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) based hardwired Lightning Protective device that is UL listed as a Secondary Surge Arrester, Category OWHX. These devices, commonly called Lightning Arresters, have been tested according to the ANSI/IEEE Standards C62.11 and C62.34. Secondary Surge Arresters are designed to protect electrical equipment from the damaging effects of transient surges caused by lightning, utility switching, electric motor cycling, insulation arcing and various other large or sudden changes in electric current flow. The AG2401C-IND is a single phase, two-pole arrester designed to protect single or split phase 120 volt or 120/240 volt electrical systems. Installation of the arrester can be indoors or outdoors. Secondary Surge Arresters may be installed at the meter can or on the service entrance. Installation is allowed on the line side or the load side of the main disconnect of the service. Arresters may also be installed at an individual piece of equipment.The AG2401C-IND housing is molded from weather and UV resistant polycarbonate which complies with the UL Standard for strength and flame resistance. All electrical connections in the AG Series are imbedded in a UL recognized epoxy to seal and protect them from moisture and corrosion. A partial list of applications that the AG Series is recommended for includes: building electric service entrances, garages, street lights, traffic control lights and controllers, parking lot lights, electric motors for irrigation and farm applications,water and sewage lift stations.
