Combined Category D, C, B tested protector (to BS EN 61643) based on
the ESP D Series and ESP TN but ready-boxed to IP66 for use in damp or
dirty environments. Suitable for most twisted pair signalling applications.
Available for working voltages of up to 6, 15, 30, 50 and 110 Volts. ESP TN
suitable for Broadband, POTS, dial-up, T1/E1, lease line and *DSL telephone
applications. For use at boundaries up to LPZ
0
to protect against
flashover (typically the service entrance location) through to LPZ 3 to
protect sensitive electronic equipment.

Features & benefits
–– Very low let-through voltage (enhanced protection to
IEC/BS EN 62305) between all lines - Full Mode protection
–– Full Mode design capable of handling partial lightning
currents as well as allowing continual operation of
protected equipment
–– Repeated protection in lightning intense environments
–– Low in-line resistance minimizes unnecessary reductions in
signal strength
–– Ready-boxed to IP66 and supplied ready for flat mounting
–– Available with screw terminals or with IDC terminals (by
adding /I suffix to part number)
–– Colour coded terminals for quick and easy installation
check - grey for the dirty (line) end and green for clean
–– Screen terminal enables easy connection of cable screen
to earth
–– Substantial earth stud to enable effective earthing
–– ESP TN/BX and ESP TN/2BX are suitable for
telecommunication applications in accordance with
Telcordia and ANSI Standards (see Application Note
AN005)
–– Supplied as standard with screw terminals - for IDC
terminals order part code plus /I (e.g. ESP TN/BX/I)
–– ESP TN/BX has Network Rail Approval PA05/02877.
NRS PADS reference 087/037286
Installation
Connect in series with the data communication, signal or
telephone line either near where it enters/leaves the building
or close to the equipment being protected. Either way, it must
be very close to the system’s earth star point.
Application
Use these ready-boxed protectors on twisted pair lines in dirty
or damp environments. For two wire lines, use /BX versions.
For four wire lines, use /2BX versions.

NOTE:
For installation in the equipment panel, protectors which are not boxed may be more suitable. If your system requires a protector with a very low resistance,
higher current or higher bandwidth use the ESP E or H Series. Unboxed protectors for 3-wire RTD systems are available - as are plug-in protectors for telephone
lines and compact Slim Line protectors.
