INTEGRATED TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSOR
1. This section describes the materials and installation requirements for the TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSOR (TVSS) for the protection of all AC electrical circuits from the effects of lightning induced currents, substation switching transients and internally generated transients resulting from inductive and/or capacitive load switching.
A. ANSI/IEEE C62.41 - IEEE Guide for Surge Voltages in LowVoltage AC Power Circuits
B. ANSI/IEEE C62.45 - IEEE Guide for Surge SuppressorTesting
C. FIPS Pub 94 (1983) - Guide on Electrical Power for ADP Installation
D. National Electric Code - Article 285, 280-1, 2, 4, 12, 21, and 25
E. National Fire Protection Association - NFPA-20, NFPA-70, NFPA-75, and NFPA-780
F. UL 1283 - Electromagnetic Interference Filters
G. UL 1449 2nd Edition- Transient Voltage Surge Suppressors
1. TVSS shall be Listed and Component Recognized in accordance with UL 1449 2nd Edition, UL 1283, and cUL.
2. TVSS shall be UL 1449 2nd Edition tested and listed to 200kA Short Circuit Current Rating (SCCR) in compliance with NEC 285.6.TVSS devices obtaining
3. TVSS shall be installed internal to electrical distribution equipment by the electrical distribution equipment manufacturer.
4. TVSS shall be tested with the Category C3 high exposure waveform (20kV-1.2/50ms, 10kA-8/20ms) per ANSI/IEEE C62.41 - 1991
5. TVSS shall be a self contained module design. Each suppression element shall be MOV based. Each phase of the surge current diversion module shall be
protected using 200 kAIR, 30A surge rated fuses and thermal cutouts.
6. TVSS shall provide surge current diversion paths between each phase conductor and the neutral conductor, between each phase conductor and the ground
and between the neutral conductor and ground. For delta configured systems, the TVSS shall have components connected between each phase conductor
and between each phase conductor and ground.
7. TVSS shall incorporate copper bus bars for the surge current path. Small gauge round wiring or plug-in connections shall not be used in the path for surge
