Hello everyone, first time poster here so I apologize if the formatting isn't the best. I've been reading through article 501 and saw the requirement for surge protectors in 501.35(A):
I have questions about this section:
Surge arresters, surge-protective devices, and capacitors shall be installed in enclosures identified for Class I, Division 1 locations...
I have questions about this section:
- Is this section trying to say that all enclosures for C1D1 must have SPDs installed?
- Does the inclusion of the word "and" mean that all three must be installed in conjunction in order for a panel to be compliant or would 1 suffice?
- The SPD still needs to be rated for the location right? I can't seem to find a surge protector online that has a clear C1D1 rating.
- If they are required does anyone have a recommendation on where to begin looking and/or product recommendations?
