relays, meters, panel alarms, telemetry or any
other critical substation equipment. The unit
provides an indication LED which provides indication
that the surge suppressor MOVs are exhausted and
that the unit needs replacing. Essential to significantly
improve equipment reliability, this unit is disposable
and very low cost and can be easily mounted on
a wall or plate with self-adhesive tape and replaced
as needed.
