For	superior	local	SPD	protection,	use	Leviton	Surge	Suppression	Outlets	to	protect	against	internally-generated	transients	between	the	branch	panel	and	the	point	of	use.

DESCRIPTION:

Leviton’s	Catalog	Nos.	51120-1	(120/240V,	single	-phase	version)	and	the	51120-3	(120/208V,	3-phase	version)	Branch	Panel	Mounted	SPD	devices	have	been	designed	to	protect	
residential	and	small	commercial	establishments	from	high	voltage	transients.	The	standard	J-Box	metal	enclosure	with	pre-punched	standard	size	knockouts	simplifies	flush	
mounting	in	typical	frame	construction	environments,	and	provides	convenient	connection	means	to	existing	branch	panels.

TO INSTALL:

System Voltage Requirements
1.	 Measure	panel	voltage,	L-N,	to	determine	the	system	voltage.	System	voltage	must	not	exceed	the	specified	maximum	continuous	RMS	voltage	on	the	SPD	device	label.
Location and Mounting
1.	 Locate	the	SPD	device	as	close	as	possible	to	the	branch	circuit	breaker	panel.	Connection	lead	length	between	the	SPD	device	and	circuit	breaker	box	should	be	minimal	for	
best	protection.	The	location	should	also	permit	good	visibility	of	the	SPD	device’s	diagnostic	lights.
2.	 Remove	the	circuit	breaker	panel	cover	and	determine	the	breaker-panel	wiring	entry	point	relative	to	chosen	location	of	the	SPD	device.
NOTE:	Since	the	circuit	breaker	panel	and	the	SPD	unit	have	overlapping	covers,	installation	should	allow	at	least	one	inch	of	clearance	from	the	edge	of	the	circuit	breaker	
panel	cover.
3.	 For	surface-mount	circuit	breaker	panels,	the	SPD	device	may	be	connected	using	rigid	conduit	to	any	conduit	knockout	hole.
4.	 For	non-surface	mount	installations,	secure	the	SPD	to	the	support	stud	in	the	wall	by	cutting	a	6	x	6-inch	mounting	hole.
5.	 Remove	SPD’s	cover	and	connect	3/4-inch	flexible	or	rigid	conduit	between	circuit	breaker	box	and	the	SPD.
6.	 Place	the	SPD	device	into	the	6	x	6-inch	mounting	hole	and	secure	it	to	the	exposed	studs.
Wiring Connections
The	SPD	device	terminal	block	accepts	4	AWG	–	12	AWG	COPPER	WIRE	ONLY.	For	wire	range	Solid	or	Stranded	12	AWG	to	10	AWG	use	Torque	25	in-lbs.	For	8	AWG	Stranded	
wire	use	30	in-lbs.	For	Stranded	6	AWG	–	4	AWG	use	35	in-lbs.

1.	 WARNING:	TO	AVOID	FIRE,	SHOCK	OR	DEATH,	TURN OFF POWER	AT	CIRCUIT	BREAKER	OR	FUSE	AND	TEST	THAT	POWER	IS	OFF	BEFORE	WIRING!
2.	 Connect	wire	leads	to	terminal	block:	BLACK	to	PHASES,	WHITE	to	NEUTRAL	and	GREEN	to	GROUND.	See	Figures 1	through	4	on	reverse	side.
CAUTION:	If	plastic	conduit	is	used,	Green	ground	wire	must	be	connected	to	ground	lug,	and	Green	wire	inside	enclosure	must	also	be	connected	to	ground	lug.	Failure	to	do	
so	may	result	in	fire	or	shock.	See	Fig. 1,	Fig. 2,	Fig. 3	and	Fig. 4	on	reverse	side	for	installation	diagrams.
3.	 Thread	the	SPD	device’s	wire	leads	through	the	conduit	to	circuit	breaker	interior.
4.	 Secure	the	SPD	cover	with	the	screws	removed	previously.
5.	 Select	circuit	breakers	as	close	as	possible	to	each	service	entrance	lug.	Twenty-Amp	(20A)	circuit	breakers	are	recommended,	and	may	share	SPD	device	and	branch	circuit	
leads.	The	breakers	provide	additional	failure	protection	as	well	as	a	SPD	connection	and	servicing	disconnect.
NOTE:	Do	not	connect	SPD	leads	directly	to	service	entrance	lugs.	This	may	result	in	fire,	shock	or	death.
6.	 Lead	lengths	should	be	as	short	as	possible.	Connect	the	BLACK	leads	to	each	PHASE	through	the	selected	circuit	breakers.	Connect	the	WHITE	lead	to	NEUTRAL	as	close	as	
possible	to	NEUTRAL	entrance	service	lug.
NOTE: Avoid	long	loops	and	do	not	coil	extra	lead	wire.
7.	 Replace	the	circuit	breaker	panel	cover.	Installation	is	complete.
Power ON
1.	 Restore	power	to	circuit	breaker	panel.	The	green	diagnostic	lights	on	the	SPD	device	should	turn	ON.
2.	 If	during	normal	operation	a	diagnostic	light	shuts	off,	have	an	electrician	determine	if	phase	power	is	applied.	If	power	is	present,	then	a	transient	surge	has	exceeded	the	SPD	
device’s	rating.	The	unit	should	be	replaced	and/or	upgraded	as	soon	as	possible.
