Product Monday: FSP Surge Protector by Thomas Research Products

Craig DiLouie November 11, 2013

TRP FSP Thomas Research Products’ FSP3-277-20kA Surge Protector includes in-line fusing to shut down the luminaire if the capabilities of the surge protector have been exceeded. An LED indicator light shows that the surge protector is functioning to protect the luminaire. The compact device is designed to be utilized with luminaires on electrical mains up to 277V, and is rated to protect from surges up 20,000A.

This product, which was recognized by the IES with inclusion in the 2013 Progress Report, provides an extra level protection for LED luminaires from dangerous powerline transients in commercial applications. They are particularly useful in avoiding costly problems in 24/7 outdoor applications, including street lighting, big-box retail, warehouses, parking garages and transportation facilities.
