Eaton BRNSURGE10 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does this Eaton Type BR surge protective device protect against?
This device protects electrical systems from voltage surges caused by lightning, utility switching, and motor starting. It diverts excess voltage to ground before it can damage connected equipment.
2) Is this surge device compatible with existing BR panels?
Yes, this device is designed specifically for Eaton Type BR load centers and panelboards. It connects like a standard two-pole breaker but provides surge protection instead of overcurrent protection.
3) How do you install the pigtail neutral connection?
Connect the white pigtail wire to an available neutral bar terminal in the panel. Ensure the connection is tight and positioned to avoid interference with other conductors or panel components.
4) What is the 10 kA rating for this surge device?
The 10 kA rating indicates the maximum surge current the device can handle. This rating covers typical residential and light commercial applications where moderate surge protection is needed.
5) Does this surge device meet NEC code requirements?
Eaton surge protective devices are designed to meet NEC Article 285 requirements when properly installed. Verify local code requirements and installation methods with your authority having jurisdiction.
6) Can you add this to a panel that already has circuit breakers?
Yes, as long as you have two available breaker spaces. The device installs in the same slot configuration as a two-pole breaker but does not control any loads.
7) How do you know if the surge device is working properly?
Most Eaton surge devices include visual indicators such as LED lights or pop-out buttons that show device status. Check the specific model documentation for indicator meanings and replacement timing.
8) What tools are needed for installation?
You need basic electrical tools including wire strippers, screwdrivers, and a voltage tester. Turn off main power before installation and follow standard electrical safety procedures.
9) How often should surge protective devices be replaced?
Replace devices when status indicators show failure or after major surge events. Even without visible damage, consider replacement every 5-10 years depending on local surge activity and manufacturer recommendations.
10) Are there other Eaton surge protection options available?
Eaton offers various surge protection ratings and configurations for different applications. Check our Eaton category for other surge devices and protection levels.
11) What panel configurations work with this surge device?
This device works in single-phase and three-phase BR panels with 120/240V or 120/208V configurations. Verify your panel voltage and phase configuration before ordering.
12) Can this surge device be used in outdoor panels?
The device can be used in outdoor-rated enclosures that provide proper environmental protection. Ensure the panel enclosure maintains appropriate NEMA ratings for the installation location.
