—
INTRODU CTION
This document explains how to install the plug-in
ABB OVR Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) for
telephone and ISDN lines:
OVR TN/RJ11-2/6
protects the middle 2 (of 6) conductors on
telephone lines with RJ11 connections.
OVR TN/RJ11-4/6
protects the middle 4 (of 6) conductors on
telephone lines with RJ11 connections.
OVR TN/RJ11-6/6
protects all 6 conductors on telephone lines with
RJ11 connections.
OVR ISDN/RJ45-4/8
protects the middle 4 (of 8) conductors on S/T
interface ISDN lines with RJ45 connections.
OVR ISDN/RJ45-8/8
protects all 8 conductors on S/T interface ISDN

2. Before installation
2.1 Make sure that the system's maximum line
voltage (DC or AC peak) will never exceed the
maximum working voltage of the SPD.
Otherwise the SPD will clamp signal voltages
as though they were transient overvoltages.
Maximum Working
Voltage
OVR TN/RJ11 296 V
OVR ISDN/RJ45 58 V
2.2 Make sure that the SPD's plug and socket
connections are physically compatible with
those connecting the equipment to the
telephone (or ISDN) line.
2.3 Ensure that the current passing through the
SPD does not exceed 300 mA.
3. Installation
3.1 Connection
The SPD is connected in series with the
telephone (or ISDN) line (see Figures 1 and 2).
1
Simply plug it into the telephone socket and
plug the protected equipment into the SPD.
Note: The mains power input to equipment
should also be protected.
3.2 Mounting
Fixing holes on the base of the unit enable it
to be screwed to any flat surface.
Before doing so, ensure that it is close to a
good earthing point (see Section 3.4
2
- Earthing).
2 ).
3.3 Keep clean cables away from dirty cables
The outgoing clean cable (ie from the SPD's
socket end) should never be routed next to
the incoming dirty line cable (the SPD's cable
end) or the dirty earth cable
(see Figure 3).
The clean cable must be kept at least 5 cm
apart from either the SPD's dirty cable, or
those of neighbouring units.
If the SPD's dirty line cable is longer than
required, neatly coil and bind the surplus out
of the way, keeping this away from clean
cables.
3.4 Earthing
The SPD must be connected to a good
electrical earth, either:
a) through installation on a TS36 'top hat' DIN
rail (which in turn is connected to earth), or
b) by connecting a crimped 10mm² stranded
green/yellow cable should be used to bond
the SPD's earth stud to earth.
This SPD earth bond should be less than
1 metre long (otherwise the effectiveness of
the SPD will be reduced).
Ideally the SPD would be connected to the
main electrical earth or earth star point
(located at a distribution board) (see Figure
4, overleaf).

However, owing to the 1 metre (maximum)
earth bond, the SPD will often be hard-wired
to the ring main earth.
Never connect the SPD to earth via the earth
pin of a plug, as this may be removed.
If the earth bond is more than 1 metre from
the SPD, earth bonds of 2, 3 or 4 metres are
allowed if 2, 3 or 4 parallel earth bonds are
used. These must be kept at least 5 cm apart
from each other.
The SPD or base plate earth bond should be
less than 1 metre long (otherwise the
effectiveness of the SPD will be reduced).
10 mm² stranded green/yellow cable should
be used for this bond.
SPD or base plate earth bonds of 2, 3 or
4 metres are allowed if:
– 2, 3 or 4 parallel earth bonds are used and
– these parallel earth bonds are kept at
least 5 cm apart from each other

Where even 4 metres of connecting lead is
not sufficient, the incoming cable should be
re-routed to bring it within 4 metres of the
earth.
In circumstances where the cable cannot
ideally be re-routed, the SPD can alternatively
be connected to the electrical earth local to
the equipment being protected (eg the earth
bar of the local power distribution board)
(see Figure 4).
