The installation position should be close to the system's earth star point (usually the mains power earth) to enable a short and direct connection to earth. In-line, or series, connected protectors generally have connections marked line and clean. The line end of the protector should be connected to the dirty, incoming line (from where the transient is expected). The clean end of the protector should be connected to the line or cable to the equipment. Cards connected to the protector's clean end should never be routed next to dirty line cables or the protector's earth bond. Unless ready boxed, protectors should be installed either within an existing cabinet/cubicle or in an enclosure to the required IP rating.   1 | 2
