Surge Protection Device (SPD) Section 5
Introduction
General Electric has been a leader in lightning and surge

protection for commercial, industrial and utility applications for
decades. The GE Surge Protection Device product line utilizes the
combined strengths of GE engineering capabilities and surge
suppression technology.
GE SPD products use quality materials and innovative designs
to achieve the best possible performance while maintaining
competitive prices. All units are 3rd party tested to the NEMA LS-1
standards, are rated in accordance with NEC Article 285 and
comply with UL1449, 3rd Edition. We have a full line of SPD
products available, integral to GE Distribution Equipment,
or wall mounted.
GE has a strong commitment to customer service. We offer a
level of service and engineering support unmatched by our
competition. Many of our products are designed to suit specific
customer applications. Our application engineering team is ready
to provide solutions for your surge suppression needs.
Contact your local GE sales office for additional information.

Integrated Tranquell ME
Designed to Connect within GE A Series Panelboards
This SPD model connects directly to the A Series Panelboard bus

bars without adding width or depth to the panel enclosure. These
devices have been tested to surge current ratings per NEMA LS-1,
including the fuses in the surge path. Since these surge protection
units are mounted to the bus bars, a breaker feeder is not
required or used. This design allows for maximum protection.
Ratings are available from 65kA per mode to 100kA per mode.
All mode protection is provided with surge components (MOVs)
connected on the phase to neutral, phase to ground, and neutral
to ground paths as appropriate for the voltage configuration.
Integrated Tranquell ME products are engineered for reliability,
flexibility and long life in the most extreme surge environment.
The true maximum surge current rating, unlimited by fusing, has
been proven successful in 3rd party tests.

These devices are available in a standard NEMA 12 enclosure.

Optional enclosure types include NEMA 12 and 4X, flushmount,
surface mount and stainless steel. These units have been tested
to surge current ratings per NEMA LS-1, up to 200kA per mode,
including the fuses in the surge path. Standard features include
a surge counter, audible alarm, indicating lights, dry contacts, and
an integral surge rated disconnect (WMN1 and WMN4 only).
Rating options range from 65kA per mode to 300 kA per mode.
Tranquell HE and ME products are engineered for reliability,
flexibility and long life in the most extreme surge environment.

Tranquell HE and ME
Wall Mount, with Enhanced Thermal Protection
Introduction
Recommended installation locations are primary and secondary
distribution and point of use levels. Designed for distribution and
point of use locations, but rated for service entrance, the
Tranquell HE and ME with enhanced thermal protection has
been third-party tested to ANSI/IEEE C3 10kA 8x20s impulses.
The entire Tranquell HE and ME line-up has been engineered to
the highest standards and is designed for rigorous duty and long
life, as evidenced in our outstanding minimum repetitive surge
current capacity test results.
These devices are available in a standard NEMA 12 enclosure.
Optional enclosure types from NEMA 12 NEMA 4x include flush
mount, surface mount, fiberglass and stainless steel.
These units have been tested to surge current ratings per NEMA
LS-1, up to 200kA per mode, 400kA per phase. Standard features
include a surge counter, audible alarm, indicating lights, dry
contacts, and an integral surge rated disconnect. Rating options
Specifications
range from 65kA 300kA per mode, 130kA 600kA per phase.
Operating Frequency 50/60 Hz

Protection Block AssemblySurge Protection Device
Introduction
The GE 427 patented 5 Pin Protection Block Assembly is equipped
with a multi-layered printed circuit board, providing a connector-
ized interface for cable assemblies. It accommodates 25, 50 or
100 pair cable. It is used in many applications, including: central
offices, remote switching sites, customer premises and building
entrances, to protect telephone and voice/data lines.
When wiring cabinets with conventional wire wrap blocks each
block becomes a different part number and causes difficulty for
OEMs who have to inventory parts.
The same GE 427 Protection Block Assembly is used in every
position of a cabinet or mainframe. The cables are now treated as
less expensive parts and are stocked by length and mating con-
nector type. Manual labor, in running cables and making Protection Block Assembly
