Gas tube may be substituted for carbon block to increase protection and lower maintenance cost.
If the DLP protector is provided, then primary protection is required on the network side of the facilities.
If the TL31M or channel service unit (CSU) is provided, then primary protection must be provided on the network side of the facilities. The
TN760C cannot be directly connected to exposed facilities.
The TN555 does not have tip and ring connections. It
connects directly to the TN767 via a special "Y" cable.
AT&T 5-pin plug-in protector units and primary protetectors that begin with the number 4 are equipped with heat coils that provide sneak-
current protection.
Primary and sneak-current protection can be provided simultaneously by using carbon blocks (4BlC), wide-gap gas tubes (4BIE-W). or solid-
state protectors (4C1S). Primary protector with a "4" prefix are preferred but not required.
3B/3C protector series can be used after a thorough
site investigation that determines there is no need for sneak-current protection no chance of a power cross.
The 7500 ISDN-BRI (integrated services digital network-basic rate interface) requires a 4C3S-75 be placed on the switch and a carbon
block on the terminal end.
For TN754 circuit packs, the 4C3S-75 protector is only appropriate for vintage 15.
