Howdy All, I was curious if anyone out there has place a "separately certified" MOV >from Line (or Neutral) to Earth as a solution for Surge and placement in the EU. The specific application is a pluggable Type B.
The OSM/EE Note 1.5.1 98/2 indicates that for Pluggable Type B (and permanently connected) equipment that provided the MOV is "separately certified" it is an acceptable option. See: http://www.lyons.demon.co.uk/cenlec01.pdf For my part this is a check to insure there are no other superceding requirements that would not allow a MOV from Line to Earth in the EU. Also, are most MOV's separately certified? Any additional information would be appreciated.
