NOTES: 1. Initially the protector must be in thermal equilibrium with -40°C ≤ TJ ≤ 85°C, unless otherwise specified. The surge may be
repeated after the device returns to its initial conditions. See the applications section for the details of the impulse generators.
2. The rated current values may be applied to either the R-G or T-G terminal pairs. Additionally, both terminal pairs may have their
rated current values applied simultaneously (in this case the G terminal current will be twice the rated current value of an individual
terminal pair). Above 85°C, derate linearly to zero at 150°C lead temperature.

the R or T terminal. See the applications section for the details of the impulse generators.
