Product overview
Suntree 2-pole 500VDC surge protector in Kenya rated 20–40kA, diverting lightning and switching surges to earth before they reach the inverter.
Protecting your renewable energy investment from the unpredictable nature of lightning and electrical surges is essential, and the UNTREE 2-Pole DC Surge Protector is built for this exact task. This Surge Protective Device (SPD) is designed for installation on the DC side of a solar system, where it acts as a high-speed switch to divert excess voltage safely to the ground before it can reach and damage the inverter. It operates at a maximum working voltage of 500VDC, making it ideal for residential and medium-sized commercial solar strings. The unit is rated for a nominal discharge current (In) of 20kA and a maximum discharge current (Imax) of 40kA, providing a robust buffer against both direct and indirect atmospheric discharges. Suntree’s commitment to quality is evident in the IP20-rated housing, which is designed for easy DIN rail mounting within a distribution box. The device is fully compliant with international standards such as IEC 61643-1, ROHS, and CE, ensuring it meets strict safety and environmental protocols. With a mechanical life rated for 10 years, it offers long-term reliability. A crucial safety feature is its fast response time, ensuring that transient surges are suppressed in nanoseconds. For homeowners and installers alike, this SPD provides essential peace of mind, knowing that the most expensive components of the solar system are shielded from electrical spikes that could otherwise lead to costly repairs or complete system failure.

Compatibility and installation
What to confirm before you buy
- DC or AC rating, and the maximum system voltage (for example 500VDC or 1000VDC).
- Current rating against the circuit it protects.
- Number of poles required by the circuit design.
- Enclosure IP rating and number of ways for the location.
Protection devices must be selected and installed by a qualified electrician. AC breakers are not interchangeable with DC breakers.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use an AC breaker on the DC side of my solar system?
No. DC circuits need DC-rated devices, which are designed to interrupt DC arcs. Use the DC rating that matches your system voltage.
Is the price VAT inclusive?
Yes. Marketplace prices are shown in Kenyan shillings and include 16% VAT where it applies. Your tax invoice shows the VAT amount.
How does delivery work?
Nairobi delivery is Ksh 1,500 and courier delivery to the rest of Kenya starts at Ksh 4,500; heavy items are quoted. Delivery is free on orders above Ksh 500,000, and you can collect your order instead.
Can GeoSolar install this for me?
Yes. Request a quotation and choose supply and installation. An engineer confirms the design and compatibility with your site before work starts.
Request a quotation
