FAQs
Install BSPD120600Y3K inside an indoor control panel or distribution cabinet with a NEMA 1 enclosure. Use standard mounting hardware, follow the included counterpkg for rapid wiring, and maintain clear access for maintenance. Ensure proper clearance and wire sizing to support 120 kAIC protection and verify compatibility with the BSPD series accessories.
The 120 kAIC rating indicates the device can interrupt and divert very high-energy surges, minimizing damage to downstream equipment and reducing the likelihood of cascading failures. This translates to better uptime and longer asset life in environments with frequent transient events from switching, lightning, or grid disturbances.
Yes. The device carries SCAQMD compliance as indicated by the manufacturer, supporting regulatory considerations for California installations. Its NEMA 1 enclosure is designed for indoor dry environments, and its compatibility with the BSPD series simplifies integration into existing protection schemes and future upgrades.
Regular inspections during preventive maintenance should verify physical integrity, wiring connections, and enclosure seals. Given the high-energy protection, monitor for signs of surge events and plan for replacement after sustained exposure or following fault events. The STD W/COUNTERPKG facilitates on-site handling and reduces downtime during servicing.
Yes. The BSPD120600Y3K is part of the BSPD series, designed for compatibility with related protectors and modular upgrades. This enables scalable protection across multiple panels or zones, simplifies stocking of compatible devices, and supports coordinated protection strategies for complex electrical distributions.
