INSTRUCTION SHEET
SES40 Series
DANGER
ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR BURN HAZARD. HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES EXIST INTERNAL TO THE SES40. THIS UNIT SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED ONLY BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL IN
CONFORMANCE WITH ALL GOVERNING CODES AND INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO LOCKOUT ELECTRICAL POWER DURING INSTALLATION OR MAINTENANCE CAN RESULT IN FATAL
ELECTROCUTION, SEVERE BURNS, OR OTHER INJURIES. BEFORE WORKING WITH OR MAKING ANY CONNECTIONS TO THIS DEVICE, BE SURE THAT POWER HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM ALL
ASSOCIATED WIRING, ELECTRICAL PANELS, AND OTHER ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT.
1. The power supply to the SES40 should always be turned (and locked) OFF before the unit is accessed for any reason.
2. Prior to installation, ensure that the SES40 is of the correct voltage, current, phasing, and frequency for the applicable rating of the power distribution system.
3. This unit must be installed on the load side of the main over-current protection.
4. Diagrams are for reference only. Schematics are representative of typical applications and are only to be used for reference.
WARNING
1. ERICO products shall be installed and used only as indicated in ERICO product instruction sheets and training materials. Instruction sheets are available at
www.erico.com and from your ERICO customer service
representative.
2. ERICO products must never be used for a purpose other than the purpose for which they were designed or in a manner that exceeds specified load ratings.
3. All instructions must be completely followed to ensure proper and safe installation and performance.
4. Improper installation, misuse, misapplication or other failure to completely follow ERICO’s instructions and warnings may cause product malfunction, property damage, serious bodily injury and death.

The SES40 Series of Surge Protection Devices (SPD) are designed to provide protection to service panels, load centers or
where the SPD is directly connected to the electronic device requiring protection. Maximum protection will only be achieved if
the SPD is properly installed. Please read the following installation instructions carefully and follow the instructions.
DANGER: Electrical shock or burn hazard. Installation of this SPD should only be made by qualified
personnel. Failure to lockout electrical power during installation or maintenance can result in fatal
electrocution or severe burns.
CAUTION: Check to make sure system voltages do not exceed the SPD voltage requirement and
the correct SPD voltage/model has been selected.
CAUTION: This unit must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA-
70) and applicable local codes.
CAUTION: Ungrounded power systems are inherently unstable and can produce excessively high
line-to-ground voltages during certain fault conditions. During these fault conditions any electrical
equipment, including an SPD, may be subjected to voltages which exceed their designed ratings.
This information is being provided to the user so that an informed decision can be made before
installing any electrical equipment on an ungrounded power system.
NOTICE: Do not cut wires until the SPD is mounted and minimum wire lengths have been verified. All connection leads
should be cut to minimum possible length; never coil or push aside excess length.
