SMA DC Overvoltage Protection Module Kit (type 2) for STP 50-41 (CORE1)

SMA DC Overvoltage Protection Module Kit (type 2)

The DC Surge Protection Module Kit is a DC surge protection (type II) adaptor kit for the SMA Sunny Tripower Core1 (STP 50-41 inverters). DC surge protection is necessary to protect electrical equipment against voltage surges. Also called overvoltage and lightning is a well-known example of this. However, overvoltage protection creates potential equalisation which leads to neutralisation of the voltage differences. As a result, all connected solar panels and inverters remain undamaged. Type II only protects in the event of indirect lightning strikes.

The surge protection device can be retrofitted by connecting it to the standard plinth. The failure of an SPD module is detected by the inverter and displayed on screen as well as reported by the monitoring devices, if required.

Note: Only suitable for STP 50-41 inverters
