Doug, This option would only be acceptable if the specified protection device offers transformer isolation as well as transient and overcurrent protection. Without the transformer isolation, the product would still be "metallically connected" to the OSP and all tests for Type 1 or Type 3 interfaces (depending upon the intended deployment location) would need to be performed.
If and when Dwight finds an external protection device, he will need to test his product with that specific external device for compliance, and then state in the installation practice that this specific external protector MUST be used.
