High interrupt rating delivers robust protection against severe surges, directly reducing equipment damage and unplanned downtime; this translates to shorter outage periods and lower maintenance costs for production lines. The 277 V single‑phase rating ensures compatibility with common industrial lighting and control circuits, enabling straightforward integration into existing panels without extensive reconfiguration. A NEMA 4X enclosure provides moisture and corrosion resistance, extending protection in outdoor, wash‑down, or harsh indoor environments and supporting compliance with demanding site conditions. External side mounting offers faster, safer installations and easier retrofits in crowded electrical racks, minimizing downtime during upgrades and maintenance windows. The SPC series configuration, combined with a 10‑year warranty and UL 1449 certification, reduces ownership risk while simplifying procurement and service planning for OEMs and integrators. Overall, this device improves system reliability, safety, and total cost of ownership in industrial automation environments.

FAQs
External side mounting simplifies retrofit and new installations by allowing cable entry and protection module mounting on the panel’s exterior boundary. This reduces panel opening time, speeds commissioning, and minimizes disruption to internal wiring. It is especially advantageous in crowded or space‑constrained control rooms where traditional rear or top mounting is impractical.
The SPC080277N1P offers an 80 kAIC interrupt rating, which defines its capability to interrupt large surge currents without compromising protection. A higher rating translates to better safeguard for expensive loads like motors, drives, and programmable logic controllers, reducing the risk of damage during lightning and utility transients while maintaining system uptime.
Yes. The device is housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure, providing moisture and corrosion resistance suitable for outdoor installations, damp locations, and wash-down environments. This enclosure protection helps maintain performance in challenging industrial settings, ensuring consistent surge protection without degradation over time.
The SPC080277N1P is UL 1449 listed, which verifies electrical safety and performance under surge conditions. Its NEMA 4X enclosure supports protection against dust, water, and corrosion in demanding environments. These certifications and ratings help with compliance during audits and simplify integration into regulated industrial control systems.
By limiting surge damage and reducing unplanned downtime, the SPC080277N1P lowers maintenance costs and extends equipment life. The 10‑year warranty adds financial predictability, while easy installation speeds up project timelines. In practice, facilities removing frequent outages and maintenance events typically see shorter MTTR and improved overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
