residual currents over 100 mA
To protect the units against line-side surge voltages, install an overvoltage protection device
(surge arrester) directly at the infeed point. For use in Canada, to comply with the
requirements of CSA C22.2 No. 274, a UL category VZCA7 or VZCA8 surge arrester is
absolutely mandatory. The Raycap company has suitable surge arresters.
