Too many hoops to file a claim Seems to work but too many hoops for a claim; 1)receipt. 2)have INDEPENDENT repair facility verify cause of damage. 3) file HOMEOWNERS insurance claim 4) within 30 days, AND BEFORE REPAIRING YOUR FRIDGE, TV, A/C ext. you must contact Schneider. 5) THEN you send receipts, proof of insurance claim, independent evaluation of cause of damage to Schneider along with the damaged device. FAILURE in any of these steps voids your claim. 3Simple To Install Had a ground lightning strike near a post lamp in the yard a while back and it vaporized the lamp & photo cell on the post. I was lucky, the surge stopped at the GFI outlet that fed the post when it fried open circuit. With the cost of today's electronics and the high deductibles on Homeowner's Insurance, this is a cheep secondary step to protect equipment. Installation on the bottom of the Service Entrance through a standard knockout was quick & easy. Hook the two black wires to each half of a 240V breaker and the white & green to the buss bars and that's it. 5Decent Product - Warranty Claim & Customer Service Stinks! Product seems decent enough, but wait until you have to file a warranty claim with the company when an incident happens. The manufacturer warranty claims that it covers the lesser of $75,000 in damages or your homeowner's insurance deductible if the device fails to protect your home and any connected devices (within 5 years of purchase). Pretty awesome value on the surface. However, the commitment and communication by Schneider's customer service to fulfill this product warranty is ridiculously horrible. It's been 4 months now since our incident and they're still "evaluating" our original device to determine if them paying our claim is warranted. Fortunately, I didn't have to rely on them to cover all damages or I'd still be sitting in my house in the dark. A nearby lightning surge caused a lot of damage back in late August and it took us approximately 60 days to actually reach a live customer service representative. They claim there was a phone system error... Really?! We had to get on the company's Facebook page to even get a response, and then it was their Technical Support folks that finally got us connected to someone in claims. Since then, the rep has communicated what she knows which seems to be not much. They're still "testing" and "evaluating" in order to award claim funds. It seriously seems like they're just stalling in hopes that we'll drop it & they won't have to give us an answer. I will never buy another Schneider Electric product for my home. Buyer beware! 1Exterior installation was easy(ish) Installing this device was as simple as can be but I did not see where it had to be installed on a dedicated 20 amp double pole breaker. I had just assumed I could connect it to an existing breaker but this is not the case so please be aware of this before you get started because you may end up needing to make another trip to your local home improvement store (approximately 130 mile round trip for me).The only "issue" I had with installation was the lights did not light up after I turned on the power.I checked and rechecked multiple times. I had power to both blacks and the white went straight to neutral while the green went straight to ground.Everything was as snug as could be but no lights.I worked on it for hours until the sun started to set and then I could see that those darn lights were on all the time.They are very dim so as silly as this sounds look very close or else you may spend a few hours installing something that shouldn't take more than 15 - 20 minutes tops.I hope your eyesight is better than mine. 4Actual length of leads A lot of reviews mentioned the shortness of leads,but I failed to find one giving actual lengths.It would have been nice to know the exact length prior to ordering to get an idea of the degree of work that could be required to configure the breaker..In my case I did have to shift some breakers,but length of leads was adequate .I did not have to punch a hole in the side of the panel.The length of the leads is 20 to 21 inches. 5MADE IN MEXICO..OR CHINA, OR HONG KONG VILLAGE ? A TOSS UP AS TO WHERE MADE..REGARDLESS OF STATED DESCRIPTION .. About the only gambling that I do anymore..is driving on a Fri or Sat NIGHT...This time I read the description as to the country this product was manufactured on my AMAZON DESCRIPTION OF WHERE THIS PRODUCT IS MADE.THE listing says..MADE IN THE USA...so I purchased two..a cost of $200..hundred & 12 bucks knowing the product much better than cheaply made CHINA imports.Having purchased other brands of these home surge protectors ..they have failed...all cost about a $100.oo bill each... those were ALL made in CHINA...or another questionable country .I searched AMAZON ..and when looking for a replacement surge protector...the country of manufacturer label plainly states...made in MEXICO..!I'M not all that pleased that when I specify a made in the UNITES STATES ...actually deceptive...that is unless the USA now part of ol' MEXICO. 1Easy to install whole house protection. MADE IN THE U.S.A. The HEPD80 is a great value to provide some protection for your main electrical panel.The surge protector will also help avoid spikes from an emergency power generator.Most new furnaces, washing machines, clothes dryers, stoves, dishwashwers, microwaves and hot water heaters now have electronic circuit boards that are unprotected from power spikes. We commonly protect our TVs, DVD Players, Computers and other electronic devices that cost less than our major household appliances.The HEPD80 fairly simple to install (if you have any electrical experience). FYI: This job is not for the someone that has no idea what they are doing (I am a journeyman electrician with over 25 years of experience).I have installed several main panel surge protectors over the years. The HEPD80 has a very high rating (80,000 amps) for maximum surge amps. If you ever experience a surge this high, it would most likely be from a direct lightning strike and you will still have some damage. This unit would protect you as much as any other high end surge protector.The HEPD80 has two green lights that tell you from a glance that it is operating properly.If one (or both) of the green lights are out, you will need to investigate for a problem.Problems could range from a tripped circuit breaker, you lost the incoming power feed or that your main electrical panel has taken a hit and your surge protective device did its job and is in need of replacement.This is a fairly compact unit ... and best of all it is MADE IN THE U.S.A. (Yes, that still matters to me).I highly recommend this product! 5In wall installation Home installation in sheetrock. Purchased the metal panel that allows you to install this in the wall so that LED indicators are visible. Installed below breaker box since breaker box is mounted between two studs. Had an electrician come out to actually wire it for insurance purposes. Picture attached. 5Works, but warranty is worthless if unit fails Installed the unit and it did its job when the house got hit by lightning which fried the 10 month-old surge protector. It has a 5-year warranty, but Schneider electric won't honor the warranty directly unless it was purchased through a electrical distributor and with a PO and account number. Schneider said they have an agreement with Amazon, but Amazon said that's not true, but agreed to a "one time" credit that they estimate to be about half the value of the unit. As usual, there was a language barrier issue dealing with Amazon customer reps. 3Made in Mexico (Not US) - House Surge Protector At Main Panel Previously "Made in US" but not any more. The unit I received which I decoded with a manufacture date of 1602 (2nd week, 2016) is "Made in Mexico." I take points off for that . . . .Rated at 80kA, which is very high, HEPD80 is 2-3x of the push-in breaker space protectors which are easier to install (but those protectors are recommended to be close to the ground bus). For me, my Central AC took up the first 3 breaker spaces (#10 & #12 gauge wire) which couldn't be moved as there wasn't enough wire slack length.This unit, HEPD80, doesn't have any location requirements except to keep wire lengths as short as possible & not to coil or bend wire. Placement flexibility and higher surge rating (but higher cost, and higher initial installation time) seem a better solution.The HEPD80 is connected to a recommended breaker of 2-poles, 20A (2-poles to cover both supply wires) - - I used a new breaker, but I've seem one installer in Youtube just add to an exiting breaker (each wire clamp can hold 2 wires).By coincidence, I have a Square D main panel -- the panel states it's a "Homeline" model (vs. "QO" model which is more expensive) -- bought the breaker from Home Depot which carries breakers for both lines (HD also carry GE, Siemens, etc.).The product description on this site shows a panel drawing -- 2 black wires to TWO adjacent, single pole breakers (but a double pole breaker - 2 spaces - is OK), green wire to ground bus bar and white wire to neutral bus bar (some panels have ground & neutral on same bus). 2 1-pole or 1 2-pole breaker(s) to cover 2 supply wires providing 120V & 240V. Drawing shows breakers immediately after main breaker -- the drawing is NOT on furnished instructions, and instructions says to just mount Device to an available knockout & have no restrictions on location.If you DIY install, be sure to shut off main breaker in the panel, but be aware that supply wires BEFORE the main breaker are ALWAYS live. Wires & contacts AFTER main breaker are off when main breaker is off. Thus, the panel is still hot when the main breaker is off so touching the supply wires can still kill you.I don't know why panel makers don't put a hard plastic cover over the supply (input) area that would cost 25 cents in material and save a few lives - a careless electrician or a novice DIY (I guess it's too much to de-risk and it's human fault if they are killed). 4
