FAQ
What is the SP120V110KARV mainly used for?
The SP120V110KARV is designed to help protect compatible 120VAC 30 amp RV electrical connections from damaging surge events. It is commonly used between an RV power source and the RV electrical system.
What voltage and amperage is this surge protector designed for?
The SP120V110KARV is designed for 120VAC, 30 amp RV electrical connections only. It should only be used on compatible 120VAC 30A circuits with matching RV-style connectors.
What connectors does the SP120V110KARV use?
The SP120V110KARV uses TT-30P and TT-30R RV-style connectors. The TT-30P plug connects to the power source, and the TT-30R receptacle connects to the RV power cord or connected load.
Is the SP120V110KARV a plug-in RV surge protector?
Yes. The SP120V110KARV is a plug-in inline RV surge protector. It is installed between the RV power source and the RV electrical system using compatible TT-30 connectors.
Can this surge protector be used at a campground pedestal?
Yes. The SP120V110KARV can be used with compatible 120VAC 30 amp RV power pedestals that use TT-30 connections. Always verify the pedestal voltage, wiring condition, grounding, and connector compatibility before use.
Can this surge protector be used with a generator?
Yes. The SP120V110KARV may be used with compatible 120VAC 30 amp generator connections using TT-30 style connectors. Always verify the generator output, connector style, voltage, amperage, and grounding before use.
Can this surge protector be used with an RV extension cord?
Yes. The SP120V110KARV can be used with a compatible 30 amp RV extension cord as long as the cord and electrical connection use matching TT-30 style connectors and are properly rated for the application.
What does the 110KA rating mean?
The 110KA rating refers to the surge current capacity of the device. The SP120V110KARV is designed to help protect compatible RV electrical equipment from damaging surge events when properly used on a suitable 120VAC 30 amp RV circuit.
How is the SP120V110KARV different from the SP120V110KAL30?
The SP120V110KARV and SP120V110KAL30 have similar surge protection performance, but they use different connector styles. The SP120V110KARV uses TT-30P and TT-30R connectors for RV applications. The SP120V110KAL30 uses L5-30 style connectors for compatible generator, marine, and other 120VAC 30 amp applications.
What is the 3-light polarity indicator used for?
The 3-light polarity indicator provides a quick visual reference for the wiring condition of the connected 120VAC circuit. It can help identify common wiring issues such as incorrect polarity, open ground, or other wiring conditions depending on the light pattern.
Does the 3-light polarity indicator replace proper electrical testing?
No. The 3-light polarity indicator is a helpful visual reference, but it does not replace proper electrical testing or inspection by a qualified person. If the light pattern indicates a wiring issue, do not use the circuit until it has been inspected and corrected.
What type of surge protector is the SP120V110KARV?
The SP120V110KARV is a Type 3 surge protective device. It is designed for plug-in inline use on compatible 120VAC 30 amp RV electrical connections.
Does this surge protector have built-in short circuit protection?
No. The SP120V110KARV does not have built-in short circuit protection. The electrical circuit should have appropriate overcurrent protection, such as a properly rated fuse or circuit breaker, located before the surge protector in the electrical path.
Does this surge protector replace a circuit breaker or fuse?
No. The SP120V110KARV is a surge protective device and does not replace required overcurrent protection. A properly rated fuse or circuit breaker should be used ahead of the surge protector as required for the electrical circuit.
Can the SP120V110KARV be used outdoors?
The surge protector is designed for harsh RV power environments, but the electrical connectors should be kept protected from directed water, standing water, and conditions that could damage the electrical pins or create an unsafe connection.
