FAQs
Installation is straightforward with external side mounting. Connect the device to the panel’s incoming supply and output bus as per Eaton’s installation sheet, ensure proper ground bonding, and secure the unit to a suitable enclosure wall. Verify voltage rating matches the panel (120/240 V) and confirm NEMA 4X suitability for the installation environment.
Key specs include 120/240 V split-phase operation, 80 kAIC interrupt rating, NEMA 4X enclosure, and filtering per UL1283 5th Edition. It is UL 1449 listed, providing routine surge protection performance for critical loads in industrial and commercial applications.
Yes. The NEMA 4X enclosure is designed for moisture, dust, and corrosion resistance, making it appropriate for outdoor or harsh indoor environments where reliable surge protection is essential for sensitive electronics and control systems.
The SPC080240S2P is UL 1449 listed and UL1283 5th Edition compliant, with a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure. These certifications validate safety, filtration performance, and suitability for demanding electrical installations in industrial settings.
With an 80 kAIC interrupt rating, a 10-year warranty, and enhanced protection against transients, downstream equipment experiences reduced failure risk and longer service life. This translates to lower downtime, fewer replacements, and predictably lower maintenance costs over the system’s life.
