Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Kostal DC SPD Kit Type 2?
The Kostal DC SPD Kit Type 2 is a pluggable DC surge protection module (Surge Protection Device) that protects the direct current inputs of an inverter from transient overvoltages caused by lightning strikes and switching operations. It is designed for a system voltage up to 1000 V DC.
Which devices is the SPD kit suitable for?
The kit is specifically designed for the Kostal PLENTICORE G3 and PLENTICORE MP G3 and can be integrated as a plug-in module in the respective inverter.
How many DC inputs does the module protect?
The SPD kit protects both MPP trackers, i.e., two DC inputs, up to a system voltage of 1000 V DC.
Why is DC surge protection useful?
PV systems are exposed on the roof and susceptible to surges caused by nearby lightning strikes or switching operations in the grid. A Type 2 SPD diverts these surges and protects the inverter and system from costly damage.
Who is Kostal?
Kostal is a German manufacturer with a long tradition in electrical engineering and produces, among other things, inverters, storage solutions, and suitable system accessories for photovoltaic systems. This SPD kit is manufactured in Germany.
