AFDD Arc Fault Detection Device

Moeller AFDD Pic

Eaton’s AFDD provides comprehensive protection against
electrical fires triggered by arc faults. This all-in-one
device combines the functions of a residual-current
circuit breaker, miniature circuit breaker, and arc fault
detection, protecting against electric shock, overcurrent,
short circuits, and arc faults. Through continuous electronic
cable monitoring, the device detects arc faults and trips
automatically to reduce the risk of residential electrical
fires. It provides electricians with a more efficient,
standards-compliant solution for enhanced safety.

Core Features:

  • Advanced protection: combines arc‑fault detection, overcurrent & short‑circuit protection and earth‑fault (RCCB) functionality.
  • Rated breaking capacity 6 kA and 10 kA
  • Rated currents up to 40 A
  • Tripping characteristics B, C
  • Tripping indicators show status and trip cause, saving fault‑finding time
  • AFDD busbar as accessory supports easy and flexible installation

Eaton Moeller Series - SPPVT2/T12 xPole Surge Protection

April 9, 2026
Image
SPPVT Pic

The plug-in surge arresters SPPVT2 and SPPVT12 are developed especially for photovoltaic applications. They protect the installations against transient overvoltages that can be induced by direct or indirect lightning strikes.

SPPVT12: Homes with rooftop solar PV installations represent an additional vulnerability that requires surge protection. Usually this requires Type 1/2 combinations, for DC protection - based on whether the building has also a requirement for an external lightning protection system. SPPVT12 is developed especially for photovoltaic applications and protects the installations against transient overvoltages induced by direct lightning strikes.

SPPVT2: Type 2 PV surge protection is required, when there is no risk for direct lightning strikes but indirect surges can occur. SPPVT2 protects the inverter and installations against transient overvoltage due to switching and indirect lightning strikes.

These surge arresters are suitable for a wide range of surge protection in a large number of systems.

Moeller SPTD3 Pic

The SPDT3 device is especially used for fine
protection of user equipment against transient
overvoltage and local protection of sensitive
loads in end circuits.

These SPDs type 3 have a low discharge capacity,
so in order to have a full protection type 3
should be supplementing type 2 SPDs and be
installed in the vicinity of sensitive loads.
