The Phoenix Contact base element for surge arresters is designed for use in isolated 1000 V DC voltage systems, typically found in solar photovoltaic installations. It is intended for DIN rail mounting, offering easy installation in electrical enclosures. This 4-position base element is configured without a remote indication contact. It is specifically tailored for protecting two parallel strings or maximum power point (MPP) trackers in solar arrays, safeguarding against voltage surges and transient over voltages that could damage sensitive equipment.
