Eaton BSPD300208Y1K Surge Protection Device - 300 kAIC
Part Number: BSPD300208Y1K
Quick Summary
The Eaton BSPD300208Y1K surge protection device safeguards electrical systems from transient overvoltages in industrial and commercial environments. This helps prevent damage to sensitive equipment and reduces unplanned downtime caused by power spikes. The model offers a 300 kAIC interrupt rating and a robust NEMA 1 enclosure, designed for indoor service, with clear compatibility to the BSPD series. While SCAQMD compliance is noted by the manufacturer and the enclosure is suitable for indoor installations, confirm CE/UL certifications with Eaton for your specific region. For organizations seeking reliable surge protection with straightforward installation, this device delivers both protection and practical value alongside existing panel infrastructure.
