Important notes at the end of this document.
Cautions and warnings
Do not operate surge arresters in power supply networks, whose maximum operating voltage
exceeds the minimum spark-over voltage of the surge arresters.
Surge arresters may become hot in the event of longer periods of current stress (burn risk). In the
event of overload the connectors may fail or the component may be destroyed.
If the contacts of the surge arresters are defective, current load can cause sparks and loud
noises.
Surge arresters must be handled with care and must not be dropped.
Do not continue to use damaged surge arresters.
