Information about the MEAN WELL SPD-20-240P

The MEAN WELL SPD-20-240P is a high-performance 20kA Surge Protection Device (SPD) engineered to protect LED drivers, power supplies, and sensitive AC electrical equipment from transient voltage surges. It is designed for operation on 240 VAC power lines with a Maximum Continuous Operating Voltage (MCOV) rating of 300 VAC.

Featuring a fully potted IP67 enclosure, the SPD-20-240P is highly durable and suitable for both indoor and harsh outdoor installations, such as street lighting, tunnel lighting, and outdoor display applications. It offers complete protection across both Line-to-Ground and Line-to-Line paths, delivering an ultrafast response time of less than 25 nanoseconds.

Equipped with a convenient LED status indicator, the device provides clear visual feedback on its operational state (illuminated when protection is functional). Wired in parallel with the electrical system via a 3-wire connection (L, N, FG/PE), the SPD-20-240P is fully compliant with global safety standards including UL1449 and BS EN/EN61643-11.
