If the keyset measured voltage is 48v

I wouldn't trust measuring it. You never know what else is going on. Get with the manufacturer for their recommendation or play it safe and go with 235.

For instance with Partner and some Panasonic with the phone plugged in a 75 volt protector will work fine. Measure the voltage and it's well below 75 volts. But disconect the phone and the system assumes you will be connecting a standard SLT device and puts ringing on the pair. So now you have a ring/trip whenever a line assigned to the disconnected extension rings. That can put the whole system out of service.

And to cut the original installer a little slack, those 27 volt protectors will work fine for some systems. Omega IV 616 and ZTD systems, for example. But not the larger Omega IV systems! All of which are manufacturer disc for 15+ years, before someone else points that out! Anyhow, that's why ya gotta know what your doin'! smile John C.

Thanks - the Samsung manual says 48v also - we will get ones rated significantly higher.

Well - got lucky and found two for a good price. The good news is we'll swap out the data ones for another install. One of those mistakes we won't make twice.

I've always had good luck with the 235v.

That's what we use also. I figure if it can't handle 235 volts it's the manufacturer's problem.
