Quick Summary

Eaton CHSPT1-208Y Surge Protection Device protects electrical panels from transient surges in a 3‑phase 120/208V system. Surges can erode component life, trigger faults, and cause costly downtime, especially in facilities with high switching loads. This Type 1 SPD is UL 1449 certified and housed in a rugged NEMA 4 enclosure to withstand demanding environments indoors and outdoors at service entrances. Its compact 1 in × 1 in × 1 in footprint and plug-on design simplify installation within existing CH series panels, delivering fast time-to-protection. For engineers and procurement teams, the device offers reliable protection, predictable maintenance, and a strong basis for compliance and total cost of ownership reductions.
