MOV Line-to-Ground or Line-to-Line Lightning Protection Assembly
The Model SSS-M20130CB2 provides Line-to-Ground or Line-to-Line Lightning Protection on higher voltage power and signal line pairs that have a Line-to-Line maximum voltage of 340VDC
or 260VRMS
Components are mounted to a printed circuit board that is form and fit compatible with a standard lightning adapter
Dual High-Energy 20mm MOVs
All components are UL Listed
Robust and cost effective Line-to-Ground Protection solution for Non-Vital higher voltage signal, power, and communication lines
Features:
Mounts on standard AAR terminal blocks (not supplied) with 2-3/8" center-to-center post dimensions (standard for lightning arresters)
or any AAR terminal block strips that are positioned to accept a standard lightning arrester spacing
Utilizes open slots at the ends of the circuit board for mounting flexibility and easy maintenance
All copper traces are on the underside of the board to prevent accidental shorting
Connection to the AAR Posts is on the underside of the circuit board
Used as Line-to-Ground or Line-to-Line protection where the maximum voltage does not exceed 340VDC or 260VRMS
Not for track-wire Line-to-Ground or Line-to-Line protection

Summary:
The Model SSS-M20130CB2 provides Line-to-Ground Lightning Protection on Non-Vital higher voltage power and signal line pairs that
have a Line-to-Line maximum voltage of 340VDC or 260VRMS. Mounts on standard AAR terminal blocks with 2-3/8"
center-to-center post dimensions (standard for lightning arresters). Though this device does not have gas-gap isolation,
its high energy / high current handling capability makes it highly reliable. Applications includ AC Power Lines, Class Yards, and
any Non-Vital Line-to-Ground protection.
