I love this Vortexx R single phase. Not all of their R and Hurricane spd's have thermal protection, look for TFMOV in specs. The double tap, for Type 1 line side connection, is supposed to be made with the spade under the conductor, docu says. Weird, yes. I collected different 1/4"-20 thread options to use on bus studs, one option being thin jam nuts, another being threaded rod connectors and a hex screw. I looked at Harley faring standoffs, similar idea. Also looked at non-crimp non-toothy set screw connectors, some insulated, but those connect directly to feeder...a commenter posited using toothy screw down on feeder, no way that here.
Lifetime warranty is a game changer.
I was hoping you would have gone over the finer details like the max surge amperage and maybe some thoughts on how that co,pares to other devices you have used. Thanks for the otherwise detailed install!
I would like to see how to install this on a generac standby transfer switch
An Electrician wearing a watch and a metal one no less.
Would love to hear from inspectors on the double tap of the main lug point after some follow-up. May from PSP reps.
I've heard from several inspectors who are not fans of the double tapped lugs
anti oxidants... LOL. I thought you were going to talk about dialectic grease. Anti accidents... yup I use that also, every time.
Dad jokes, can't help it
I guess your busy and not checking comments. I am trying to buy one.
Hello there, I have severe fluctuation issues at peak times here in South Miami. My 4T Trane compressor draws 45Amps. I have an ICM 102 Delay on Make Timer installed which does not trigger unless the power goes off completely - which Protector should I get ? Thank you so much !
Where can you purchase these?
@R00m1o1 I can sell the Vortexx series R for $185, which includes shipping in CONUS.
If you need the flush plate, that will add $35.
How much is it?? cant seem to find the price.
Anyone??
