Preventive Maintenance - Inspection and Cleaning

Inspection of the SPD should be performed periodically to maintain reliable system performance and continued tran- sient voltage surge protection. While it is difficult to establish a preventive maintenance schedule because conditions vary from location to location, inspections for failed modules and other signs of trouble utilizing the built-in diagnos- tics should be performed on a routine basis (weekly or monthly).
