FAQs

What’s included with this SPD kit?

The WSPD240KIT1 comes with a Type 2 SPD plus live, neutral, and earth forked leads for quick connection.

When should I choose this kit instead of the busbar version?

Use the forked wire kit when you need fast plug-and-play wiring without using up distribution board terminals. The busbar kit is better when wiring multiple SPDs neatly into place.
