What's Included

  • Leviton Whole-House Surge Suppressor
  • More Info


    The Leviton 51120-1 Branch Panel Mounted transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS) devices have been designed to protect residential as well as small commercial establishments from high voltage transients. Standardized J-Box metal enclosure with prepunched standard size knockouts simplifies flush mounting in typical frame construction environments, and provides convenient connection means to existing branch panels. Some of the features are:

  • Meets UL 1449.
  • IEEE C62.41-1991 category A&B combination wave
    suppression.
  • Solid-state semiconductor TVSS circuitry for each
    phase.
  • Each phase independently fused.
  • Green LED diagnostic indicator for each phase.
  • Standard J-Box metal enclosure.
  • Prepunched standard knockouts.
  • Interior plastic circuit enclosure for added safety.
  • Flush mounting enclosure.

    Protection for whole-house lighting control systems
    While this whole house surge suppressor is great for protecting computers, TVs and other electronics, it can also protect against damage to lighting control systems such as INSTEON, X10 or Z-Wave. Voltage spikes of several hundred or even thousands of volts generated by outside sources do occasionally occur. We know of customers that have had several X10 components fail simultaneously for no apparent reason except for one clue, home control components that happened to be plugged into a surge suppressor/surge protector power strip were still functional.

    If you are going to be using a significant number of remote control light switches in your home adding a whole house surge protector will give you a good insurance policy against costly damage to both your home control system and other delicate electrical equipment in your house.

    We recommend that whole-house surge protector units be installed by a licensed electrician.

    This latest version of the Leviton Whole-House Surge Suppressor has greatly increased surge handling capacity. This surge protector unit is an essential component when installing an extensive whole-house lighting control systems. LEDs on the panel show operation status.

  • J1=L1

    IRENE -- demarest, NJ   10/13/2011
    Appears to be perfect. I had it professionally installed and I know my installer had to purchase something to install it but that's all I know
    WILLIAM -- rockford, IL   9/16/2011
    Will consider ordering again.
    CHRIS -- huntington station, NY   9/10/2011
    may be responsible for some communication issues I'm having in my HA system, still had some problems after return of power post Hurricane Irene
    ROY -- novi, MI   8/11/2011
    The product, shipping and price were all very good, much better than some other on line experiences I have had.
    LEWIS -- cortez, FL   7/16/2011
    Very easy to install. I'm satisfied.
    GAVIN -- bailey, CO   7/15/2011
    I have purchased several of these units and installed them in not only other peoples home, but my own. this is a great unit and works very well! The service that comes from smarthome has been excellent and I will continue to shop at smarthome as well as suggest them to other people!
    BYRON -- oxford station, ON   6/4/2011
    Product was a little counter-intuitive to install, but was extremely easy to do. Seems to be working well as there have not been any power-surges noticed since it was installed. A package deal containing appropriate breakers, conduit and wire would make this an even better no-brainer purchase for any home.
    JAMES -- dilliner, PA   5/7/2011
    This was the second unit purchased as a replacement for the first one. I had problem installing the replacement. The first one did its job when the power companys' line took a lighting strike.
    MARK -- honolulu, HI   3/25/2011
    Reading the instruction made the installation quick to do.
    JAVID -- lake ridge, VA   2/24/2011
    Had this in a previous house I built and it seemed to work great... never had any surges or AC issues that created problems with AC-powered devices in the house... So, I've ordered two more for the new house I'm building!
    BERNARD -- wyckoff, NJ   1/20/2011
    Installed three Leviton 51120-1 surge suppressors on all three load centers in the home a month ago. So far they are working fine.
    DALE -- torrance, CA   12/30/2010
    After a long wait for the back order to be satisfied, I was happy with the design and quality of the unit. It was easy to install and is now protecting my house from surges, like the one that took out one computer power supply and our washing machine.
    PAUL -- dunlap, IL   12/20/2010
    Very simple installation. If it works, it's well worth it.
    CLARENCE -- fredericksburg, VA   12/11/2010

    PARTS & -- phoenix, AZ   11/26/2010
    Excellent
    PHIL -- bellevue, NE   11/22/2010
    Product delivered as promised and included strait-forward installation instruction.
    EDWARD -- robins, IA   11/22/2010
    Easy installation and high joule rating. I will sleep easier knowing this is in place. Was backordered a long time, but probably because it's pretty popular.
    KELLY -- faribault, MN   9/13/2010
    quick shipping, installed easy
    STEVEN -- paicines, CA   9/13/2010
    Installation instructions are precise and clear. Quality of enclosure and hardware assembly is excellent. If MOV's perform as specified, this surge protector will perform well for us.
    PATRICIA -- snow hill, NC   9/8/2010
    Fast shipment, Fair price. Hope it works if I ever need it.
