Description
| Feature | What it means |
|---|---|
| 108 kA surge current capacity per phase | This is the maximum current surge (in kiloamps) that the device can handle per phase. “Phase” refers to each leg of the supply (in a 120/240 V residential system there are two hot legs). It can handle large surges without being destroyed. |
| Universal compatibility | It should work with almost any load centre / breaker panel manufacturer, which means fewer worries about fit. |
| Externally mounted design | It does not go inside the breaker panel; it mounts on the outside cover. That is usually easier for installation and inspection, but may look bulkier. |
| LED indicator for protection status | A visual way to see if protection is still functioning. If the protection element is damaged after a big surge, the LED goes out or changes so you know it needs replacing. |
| Needs a 2-pole 50A thermal magnetic breaker (sold separately) | To install this safely in typical Canadian/US electrical panels, you need a dedicated breaker: 2 poles (one for each hot leg), 50 amps, thermal-magnetic. That is how the device is protected. |
