Do not use chemical or cleaner containing harsh
material such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and
acetone.
Operation
Environment
•
Location: Indoor, no direct sunlight, dust free,
almost non-conductive pollution (Note below)
•
Relative Humidity: < 80%
•
Altitude: < 2000m
•
Temperature: 0°C to 40°C
(Pollution Degree) EN 61010-1:2001 specifies the pollution degrees
and their requirements as follows. SPD-3606 falls under degree 2.
Pollution refers to “addition of foreign matter, solid, liquid, or
gaseous (ionized gases), that may produce a reduction of dielectric
strength or surface resistivity”.
• Pollution degree 1: No pollution or only dry, non-conductive
pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence.
• Pollution degree 2: Normally only non-conductive pollution
occurs. Occasionally, however, a temporary conductivity caused
by condensation must be expected.
• Pollution degree 3: Conductive pollution occurs, or dry, non-
conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to
condensation which is expected. In such conditions, equipment
is normally protected against exposure to direct sunlight,
precipitation, and full wind pressure, but neither temperature
nor humidity is controlled.

Power cord for the United Kingdom
When using SPD-3606 in the United Kingdom, make sure the power
cord meets the following safety instructions.
NOTE: This lead/appliance must only be wired by competent persons
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT: The wires in this lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
Green/ Yellow:
Earth
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
(Phase)
As the colours of the wires in main leads may not correspond with the
colours marking identified in your plug/appliance, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured Green & Yellow must be connected to the
Earth terminal marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or
coloured Green or Green & Yellow.
The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal
which is marked with the letter N or coloured Blue or Black.
The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter L or P or coloured Brown or Red.
If in doubt, consult the instructions provided with the equipment or
contact the supplier.
This cable/appliance should be protected by a suitably rated and
approved HBC mains fuse: refer to the rating information on the
equipment and/or user instructions for details. As a guide, cable of
0.75mm
2
should be protected by a 3A or 5A fuse. Larger conductors
would normally require 13A types, depending on the connection
method used.
Any moulded mains connector that requires removal /replacement
must be destroyed by removal of any fuse & fuse carrier and disposed
of immediately, as a plug with bared wires is hazardous if a engaged in
live socket. Any re-wiring must be carried out in accordance with the
information detailed on this label.
