Cardew-C 1000 V availabilty

[catalinc]

Hello,

Can someone please advise about the availability of Cardew-C 1000 V (part number 50183) ?

There is a shortage for many months, impacting projects under execution or under commissioning.

Is there any equivalent from other brands which could be used instead?

Thank you for your feedback, Ramasamy. 

What about the possibility of finding any other equivalent on the market? We have a project under installation at site and the tests will start soon. 

Thank you in advance for your kind advice.

Hello @catalinc 

We don't have any alternate part for this surge limiter. 

However the Cardew C is a surge protector, used only to protect the IM400 by shorting the neutral to ground (IT system to TT - grounded network) when the surge pulse (40kA for 0.2Second) is occurred in the network. 

This device need to disconnected during the test. Please check the possibilities to complete the testing until the Cardew availability.
