To obtain the maximum system performance, locate the device as close
as possible to the circuit breaker to minimize the interconnecting wiring
length. For every foot in length of wire, approximately 175 volts per foot
(6 kV/ 3 kA, 8/20 microsecond) is added to the suppressed voltage.
The suppressed voltage rating is located on the device nameplate and
is measured 6 inches from the device terminals, according to UL
