Mounting
For optimal performance, mount EP product as close
to electrical panel as possible. Longer wire increases
inductance in the system and the EP unit may not function
properly. e lead lengths of the wire for the EP-2700
needs to be 1 inch longer than that of the EP-2000 and
EP-2500. Make sure the EP product is mounted in a dry
and clean environment. e EP unit can be mounted in any
secure area above, below or beside the electrical panel.
Although internal mounting can be preferred mounting for
shorter lead lengths and optimal performance, it poses two
problems: 1. IEEE does not recommend internal mounting
of TVSS in the event of end of life termination of the unit
that may cause damage to the internal distribution panel.
2. On internal installation the panel must be opened for
visual verification of units’ functional status.
Wiring
1. Requires a dedicated 30 A circuit breaker to
connect the EP filter to the electrical system.
2. Wire should be connected straight to the
power source. Avoid sharp bends and refrain
from splicing the wires as this will reduce the
effectiveness of the unit.
3. Do not twist wires.
Maintenance
EP products do NOT require periodic maintenance. e
units have LED lights to provide visual indication of the
unit’s functional status. If the LED lights are off, the unit is
functioning properly.
EP units are designed to reduce heat. If the units are hot
to the touch for more than 60 days, additional EP units are
needed.
It is also good practice to inspect the connections of the
power supply wiring to the EP unit monthly.
Servicing
EP units contain no serviceable parts and require no
adjustments. All EP products are designed to provide many
years of electrical protection without any need for servicing.
If the EP unit does malfunction, have a professional
electrician inspect the wire connections. If the problem
persists, contact your EP sales representative to discuss
obtaining a replacement unit.
WARNING !!
WARNING
• ALWAYS have a professional electrician
with proper safety equipment
perform installation.
• Any attempt to open unit voids
warranty.
!!
WARNING
e EP-2700 must have an EP-2000 or an
EP-2500 installed next to it to function properly.
e EP-2700 offers no surge protection and
failure to install next to an EP-2000 or EP-2500
voids warranty.
!!
Failure to follow all of these
instructions may cause excessive heat
in the EP-2700, resulting in premature
burnout.
