High-energy surge handling up to 080 kA is paired with filtering to limit fast transients, providing downstream protection for sensitive loads and PLCs. The business impact is tangible: fewer spurious trips, longer equipment life, and lower maintenance costs, especially in manufacturing lines and data-center-adjacent panels. This configuration is ideal for panel boards, switchgear, and industrial control centers where 120/208V Wye is prevalent, ensuring quick, compliant integration with existing wiring practices. The rugged NEMA 4X enclosure enables placement in damp or harsh environments, reducing enclosure-related failures and extending service life in outdoor or semi-exposed locations. With external-side mounting, installation time is minimized, and service access is simpler during routine maintenance or component swaps. The device’s compact footprint supports retrofits without demanding cabinet redesigns, while its UL 1449 and UL1283 5th Edition certifications reinforce compliance with industry standards. In addition, the 10-year warranty lowers total cost of ownership by spanning long project cycles and asset lifespans. Enhanced protection aligns with industry best practices for energy reliability, helping facilities avoid costly downtime and regulatory complications.

FAQs
The SPC080208Y2P is designed to protect 120/208V Wye systems in panel boards, MCCs, and industrial control panels. Its 080 kA surge capacity, UL 1449 and UL1283 5th Edition certifications, and NEMA 4X enclosure help safeguard critical drives, PLCs, and sensors from damaging transients while supporting compliance requirements and minimizing downtime during commissioning or upgrades.
Yes. The device uses a NEMA 4X enclosure, which provides reliable protection in damp or harsh environments. External side mounting simplifies installation and service access in outdoor panels or exposed electrical rooms, reducing field labor time and the risk of weather-related corrosion or ingress during maintenance.
The SPC080208Y2P is UL 1449 listed and UL1283 5th Edition certified, indicating compliance with recognized safety and suppression standards. These certifications help meet regulatory requirements, qualify for procurement in regulated facilities, and reassure engineers that protection performance meets current industry benchmarks for transient voltage suppression.
External-side mounting offers straightforward wiring access and reduced cabinet intrusion, which speeds initial installation and future maintenance. This approach minimizes disruption to existing equipment, simplifies cable routing, and enables easier relocation or upgrades within dense control cabinets or crowded electrical rooms.
The SPC080208Y2P carries a 10-year warranty, reflecting Eaton’s confidence in long-term reliability. Combined with an 080 kA surge rating and robust enclosure, this translates to lower maintenance costs, reduced replacement cycles, and a favorable total cost of ownership for mission-critical applications in manufacturing, data centers, and utility environments.
