This product is a power protection device that can prevent voltage spikes in the power grid from damaging connected devices.
The APSA wall‑mounted surge‑protecting socket boxes are designed to shield connected equipment from voltage spikes caused by indirect lightning, switching of inductive loads, or other transients. They use a special varistor configuration to achieve a short‑circuit withstand current of up to 15 kA and a nominal voltage of 230 V (Uoc = 10 kV, SPD Type 3).
Installation requires a correctly grounded DIN 49440 protection‑contact wall socket. A green indicator lamp stays lit when the device is functional; a red lamp signals that the protective element has tripped and the downstream consumer is disconnected. Several variants are offered (art‑Nr. 8013, 8014, 8013T, 8013D) with optional EM V‑filter, external earth terminal, and TAE or ISDN interfaces. This manual is written in German.

When the device is correctly connected, the green indicator lamp stays lit continuously, showing that the surge protection is functional.
The red lamp lights when the protective device has tripped, meaning the consumer side has been disconnected for safety.
The box can withstand a short‑circuit current of up to 15 kA.
It uses the DIN 49441 plug standard, type R2, CEE7.
