Dear Customer,
What‘s new in IEC/EN 61643-11:2012?
You will find references in this catalogue that may differ
between Imax and the part description. Weidmuller in
producing a product suitable for use around the world
specify ratings under the IEC scheme IEC/EN61643-11
which utilise a 10/350µs waveform for Type I products
and specify the “Iimp” value suitable for point of entry
to a building and 8/20µs thereafter within that building
(Type II and III). In Australia under AS/NZS1768:2007 the
classification for Category C3 to A uses 8/20µs waveform
for all surge parameters and reference to Imax. We have
taken great care in referencing the Imax value on all
Type I products to ensure our customers purchase a
product meeting their exact requirement. The Imax value
is listed on product front face and all datasheets and is
independently certified by an external testing organisation
CTI in Vienna. One other note is that the protection level
Up is derived from the Iimp which ensures that our product
has been tested to the maximum impulse rating it is
labelled for so you can be sure it will withstand whatever
nature can throw at it!
The latest version of IEC/EN 61643-11:2012 specifies,
among other things, a new test procedure which takes into
account, the failure behaviour of protective equipment in the
event of an overload, or when the service life has expired.
From now on, in what is known as a failure mode simulation,
the correct varistors are now used as test specimens,
instead of the previously required copper blocks. The Type I
operating duty test is conducted with a higher current than
that specified in the previous standard. IT networks are also
included for the first time in the new standard.

General installation advice
General installation advice
Many details have to be taken into account during the
­installation of surge protection and the electrical system in
order to achieve optimum protection.
Arrangement and subdivision of electrical panel
Steel cabinets possess good magnetic shielding properties.
The following points should be taken into consideration
during the installation:
•Avoid unnecessarily long lines
(particularly lines with a high volume of data traffic).
•Route sensitive signalling lines separately from lines with
a high interference potential.
•Route shielded lines directly to the equipment and
connect the shielding there (do not connect via additional
terminal in switching cabinet).
•Classify equipment in groups with different sensitivities
and place these together.
Place of installation
The surge protection devices should be mounted where
the lines and cables enter the cabinet. This is the lowest
­mounting rail directly above the cable entries. This prevents
­interference being coupled within the cabinet; interference
is ­discharged right at the entry to the cabinet. When using
­shielded lines, these can be connected at this point by using
Weidmüller clamp straps.
Earthing of products and connected products
All surge protection devices have an earth-connection
terminal point. The earthing wire for the associated
equipotential bonding rail must be connected to this point.
The earthing wire should have as large a cross-section as
possible and also be as short as possible. Every centimetre
of extra cable length increases the residual voltage of the
surge protection device (1 metre / 39 inch of cable = 1
kV voltage drop). In addition to the earthing terminal, the
surge protection products for measurement control systems
also offer the option of earthing via a DIN rail contact on a
TS 35. In order to achieve the best earth contact, the rail
should be mounted to an earthed metal back wall. In order
to obtain a lower protection level, the earthing terminal on
the surge protection products (for measurement and control
systems) should be connected to the equipotential bonding
every 60 cm / 24 inch. According to standards, the PE
connection and the SPD spur shall be straight as possible to
the lightning protection equipotential bonding. It is possible
to make the path as short as possible by using a so-called
V-connection or by connecting to the accompanying PE.
Cable lengths
a
SPD
Routing the lines
Signalling lines should be laid within the system/cabinet over
the shortest route to the surge protection and then ­continue
to the connected equipment. Protected and u
­ nprotected
lines should be routed separately. The earth line should be
regarded as an unprotected line. Metal partitions can be
used along cable routes or in cable ducts to achieve this
separation. If signalling lines are laid parallel to power lines,
a clearance of min. 500 mm must be maintained.
The best shielding offers metallic cable conduits along with
a metal cover.

General installation advice
Fuse protection
The need of a backup fuse
The fusing and installation for the VPU series on the power
supply side must be installed in accordance with AS/NZS
3000 wiring rules (cross section, quantity, type of conductor
and the type of installation). Installation information is also
documented in the package insert and on the products for
the corresponding VPU modules. In the event of overloads
caused by partial lightning currents or transformer short
circuits, the lightning arrester and surge arrester (SPD)
must be protected by a back-up fuse specified by the
manufacturer. If F1 (as noted in Figure 7 or preceding
main fuse) is greater than the value specified by the SPD
manufacturer, use the ratio 1:1.6, as the maximum nominal
value that should be installed for the SPD. Depending on the
installation of the connecting cables, F1 can be increased
during the lifespan of the facility. If a circuit breaker or
a main circuit breaker is used instead of the safety fuse
required in the installation instructions, then the triggering
characteristics must be followed.
•• F2 is necessary.
•• Separate F2 from F1 by a ratio of 1:1.6
•• F2 only makes sense if size suits current capacity
•• Maximum fuse is listed for each product
•• For 100kA models with 125A main fuse alternative is
“V” wiring (Figure 5)

Impulse resistance of NH Fuses
It is important to understand that the question is not how
small the SPD fusing should be; rather the maximum backup
fuse that should be used to enable the capacity to carry the
full lightning current. Full SPD protection is only available
when the installation fulfils the design characteristics. Please
see table below for surge handling of NH fuses.

The highest level of surge protection presently available
With the accompanying increase in specification limits, the introduction of
IEC/EN 61643-11 in 2012 emphasises the high degree of significance
attached to all-round reliable surge protection. Our answer to these new
requirements is the new VPU lightning and surge protection series. The highly
advanced product series already fulfils upcoming international standards and
AS/NZS 1768:2007 and AS/NZS 5033:2012 and thus offers your facilities the
greatest degree of protection.
However, you will not just be protecting your plant, but also your planning
processes. Conformity with standards for at least 7 years means that you can
minimize your planning iteration steps and the redesigns associated with these.
Many intelligent product features help installers during installation and
maintenance or engineers during the servicing of the lightning and surge
protection system. Equipped in this way, the VPU Series provides a long-lasting,
safe and forward-looking lightning and surge protection solution for your plant.
See for yourself.
Flexible positioning in the control cabinet
Cabling to/from the surge protector should be
kept as short as possible to reduce increased let
through voltage. The VPU series can be rated to
suit wiring requirements.

DC surge protection for photovoltaic facilities
For the DC voltage side, Weidmüller offers complete
protection with a comprehensive range of surge arresters.
For cable lengths of more than 10 m between the PV
generator and the inverter, protection is needed at both
ends. This means that both the generators and the inverter
are protected.

If the separation distance S according to EN 62305 is not observed (S < min), then partial lightning currents need to be taken into account.
A shielded generator main line with sufficient cross-sectional area (min. 16 mm²) should be used. The adjacent picture shows an implementation that
reaches LPZ 1. Here the surge protection from the Class II arrester can be installed in line with the existing standards (product selection, see above).
Another alternative is type I lightning and surge protection, especially for plants where the separation distance cannot be observed, e.g. installation
on tin roofs.

Superior surge protection from Weidmüller
Our surge protection modules in Class I and Class II (B and C
arresters) ensure voltage occurrences are quickly limited and
that the current is safety discharged. This allows you to avoid
expensive damages or the potential for complete power
failure in your photovoltaic facility.
For buildings with or without lighting protection systems
– we have the right product for every application! We can
deliver the modules as you require – fully customised and
pre-wired into housings.
Deploying surge protection devices (SPDs) in
photovoltaic systems
Photovoltaic energy is a vital component of the overall
energy production from renewable energy sources.
There are a number of special characteristics that need to
be considered when deploying surge protection devices
(SPDs) in photovoltaic systems. Photovoltaic systems have a
DC voltage source, with specific characteristics. The system
concept must therefore take these specific characteristics
into consideration and co-ordinate the use of SPDs
accordingly. For instance SPD specifications for PV systems
must be designed both for a maximum no-load voltage of
the solar generator (VOC STC = voltage of the unloaded
circuit under standard test conditions) as well as with ­regard
to ensuring maximum system availability and safety.
External lightning protection
Owing to their large surface area and generally exposed
installation location, photovoltaic systems are particularly
risk from atmospheric discharges – such as lightning. At
this point there is a need to differentiate between the effects
of direct lightning strikes and so-called indirect (inductive
and capacitive) strikes. On the one hand the necessity for
lightning protection depends on the normative specifications
of the relevant standards and on the one hand, the
necessity for lightning protection spends on the normative
specifications of the relevant standards. On the other hand, it
depends on the application itself, in other words, depending
on if it is a building or a field installation. With building
installations a difference is drawn between the installation
of a PV generator on the roof of a public building – with an
existing lightning protection system – and the installation on
the roof of a barn – without a lightning protection system.
Field installations also offer large potential targets due to
their large area module arrays; in this case, an external
lightning protection solution is recommended for this type of
system to prevent direct lighting strikes.
Normative references can be found in IEC 62305-3
(VDE 0185-305-3), Supplement 2 (interpretation according
to lightning protection level or risk level LPL III) [2]
AC
DC
and Supplement 5 (lightning and surge protection for PV
power systems) and in the VdS Directive 2010 [3], (if PV
systems > 10 kW, then lightning protection is required).
In addition, surge protection measures are required. For
instance, preference should be afforded to separate airtermination systems to protect the PV generator. However,
if it is not possible to avoid a direct connection to the PV
generator, in other words the safety separation distance
cannot be maintained, then the effects of partial lightning
currents must be taken into consideration. Fundamentally,
shielded cables should be used for the main lines of
generators to keep induced overvoltages as low as possible.
In addition, if the cross-section is sufficient (min. 16 mm²
Cu) the cable shielding can be utilised to conduct partial
lightning currents. The same applies to the utilisation of
closed metal housings. Earthing must be connected at
both ends of cables and metal housings. That ensures that
the main lines of the generator fall under LPZ1 (Lightning
Protection Zone); that means that a SPD type 2 suffices.
Otherwise, an SPD type 1 would be required.
Utilisation and correct specification of surge
protection devices
In general, it is possible to consider the deployment and
specification of SPDs in low voltage systems on the AC
side as standard procedure; however, the deployment and
the correct design specification for PV DC generators still
remains a challenge. The reason is firstly a solar generator
has its own special characteristics and, secondly, SPDs are
deployed in the DC circuit. Conventional SPDs are typically
developed for alternating voltage and not direct voltage
systems. Relevant product standards [4] have covered these
applications for years, and these can fundamentally also
be applied to DC voltage applications. However, whereas
previously relatively low PV system voltages were realised,
today these are already achieving approx. 1000 V DC in the
unloaded PV circuit. The task is to master system voltages of
that order with suitable surge protection devices.
The positions at which it is technically appropriate and
practical to position SPDs in a PV system depends primarily
on the type of system, the system concept and the physical
surface area. Figures 2 and 3 illustrate the principle
differences: Firstly, a building with external lightning
protection and a PV system mounted on the roof (building
installation); secondly, an expansive solar energy system
(field installation), also fitted with an external lightning
protection system. In the first instance – because of the
shorter cable lengths – protection is merely implemented
at the DC input of the inverter; in the second case SPDs are
installed in the terminal box of the
27
Photovoltaic application example

AC
DC
solar generator (to protect the solar modules) as well as at
the DC input of the inverter (to protect the inverter). SPDs
should be installed close to the PV generator as well as
close to the inverter as soon as the length of cable required
between the PV generator and the inverter extends beyond
10 meters (Figure 2). The standard solution to protect the
AC side, meaning the inverter output and network supply,
must then be achieved by using type 2 SPDs installed at the
inverter output and – in the case of a building installation
with external lightning protection at the mains feed-in point
– equipped with an SPD type 1 surge arrester.
Special characteristics on the DC solar generator side
Until now, protection concepts on the DC side always used
SPDs for normal AC mains voltages, whereby L+ and Lrespectively were wired to earth for protection. This meant
that the SPDs were rated for at least 50 percent of the
maximum solar generator no-load voltage. However, after
a number of years, insulation faults can occur in the PV
generator. As a consequence of this fault in the PV system,
the full PV generator voltage is then applied to the non-faulty
pole in the SPD, and results in an overload event. If the load
on SPDs based on metal-oxide varistors from a continuous
voltage is too high, this can potentially result in their
destruction or trigger the disconnecting device. In particular,
in PV systems with high system voltages, it is not possible
to completely exclude the possibility of a fire developing
due to a switching arc that is not extinguished, when the
disconnection device is triggered. Overload protection
elements (fuses) used upstream are not a solution to this
probability, as the short-circuit current of the PV generator
is only slightly higher than that of the rated current. Today,
PV systems with system voltages of approx. 1000 V DC are
increasingly being installed to keep power losses as low as
possible.
Figure 1: Schematic diagram from standard IEC 60364-7-712
Figure 2: Building installation with external lightning protection system,
in compliance with air termination distances
To ensure that SPDs can master such high system voltages
the star connection consisting of three varistors has proven
reliable and has become established as a quasi-standard
(Figure 4).
If an insulation fault occurs two varistors in the series still
remain, which effectively prevents the SPD from being
overloaded.
Figure 3: Field installation with external lightning protection system

DC
Superior surge protection from Weidmüller
To summarise: protective circuitry with absolutely zero
leakage current is in place and an accidental activation of
the disconnecting mechanism is prevented. In the scenario
described above, the spread of fire is also effectively
prevented. And at the same time, any influence from
an insulation monitoring device is also avoided. So if an
insulation malfunction occurs, there are always two varistors
still available in the series. In this way, the requirement that
earth faults must always be prevented, is met. Weidmüller‘s
SPD type 2 arrester VPU II 3 1,000 V DC to UCPV mode +/–,
–/PE, +/PE = 1,000 V DC provides a well tested, practical
solution and has been tested for compliance with all
current standards (UTE C 61-740-51 and prEN 50539-11)
(Figure 4). In this way, we offer the highest degree of safety
available for use in DC circuits.

Practical applications
As already stated, a difference is drawn between building
and field installations in practical solutions. If an external
lightning protection solution is fitted, the PV generator
should preferably be integrated into this system as an
isolated arrester device system. IEC 62305-3 specifies that
the air termination distance must be maintained. If it cannot
be maintained then the effects of partial lightning currents
must be taken into consideration.
On this point the standard for protection against lightning
IEC 62305-3 Supplement 2 states in Section 17.3: ‘to
reduce induced overvoltages shielded cables should be
used for the main lines of the generator’. If the crosssection is sufficient (min. 16 mm² Cu) the cable shielding
can also be used to conduct partial lightning currents.
Supplement (Figure 5) - Protection against lightning for
photovoltaic systems – issued by the ABB (Committee for
Lightning Protection and Lightning Research of the (German)
Association for Electrical, Electronic and Information
Technologies) states that the main lines for the generators
should be shielded. This means that lightning current
arresters (SPD type 1) are not required, although surge
voltage arresters (SPD type 2) are necessary on both sides.
As Figure 5 illustrates, a shielded main generator line offers
a practical solution and achieves LPZ 1 status in the process.
In this manner, SPD type 2 surge arresters are deployed in
compliance with standards specifications.

Modular use of our surge protection components
If a lightning protection system is already present on the
building, this must be at the highest point of the entire
system. All modules and cables of the photovoltaic
installation must be installed below the air terminations.
Separation distances of at least 0.5 m to 1 m must be
maintained (depending on risk analysis from IEC 62305-2).
The external Type I lightning protection (AC side) also
requires the installation of a Type I lightning arrester in the
electrical supply of the building. If no lightning protection
system is present, then Type II arresters (AC side) are
sufficient for use.

VARITECTOR LOGGER 30
•• Time & date stamp for each occurrence over 100A to earth
•• 4 year battery life with replaceable battery
•• Storage for 80 surge counts
•• Measurement from 0.1kA-50kA surges
•• Compact and easy to install
•• Fast comparison of events to breakdowns.
•• More accurate planning for surge protection requirements
or maintenance
Varitector Logger 30
Plug and Play logger for surge protection analysis
Weidmuller’s surge protection logger encompasses a counter with time and date stamping to the hour. This assists
greatly in monitoring installed surge protection for maintenance, or for implementing surge protection to an existing
site. The correlation of time of a surge occurrence can also be attributed to breakdowns assisting in further protection
requirements to help ensure higher uptime of plant. With an easy to read display, the compact surge logger is battery
powered and supplied with a split core toroid which clips around the Earth conductor with measurement of surges
between 0.1 to 50kA (8/20us). With a replaceable battery lasting 4 years, the logger requires little maintenance but
returns a lot of information essential for any plant manager or engineer. Lets connect
