Feature 80 kAIC interrupt rating → Business Impact The high interrupt rating minimizes downstream damage from voltage spikes, reducing unplanned downtime and extending the life of downstream equipment in critical power paths. Application Ideal for main feeders and distribution panels in manufacturing lines where high surge events occur. Feature 488 V voltage rating → Business Impact This rating ensures robust protection for 480 V systems common in industrial facilities, aligning with existing electrical infrastructure and preventing misapplication. Application Suitable for motor drives and control cabinets that operate at or near 480 V nominal. Feature UL 1449 certification + UL1283 5th Edition filtering → Business Impact Certification-backed protection reduces nuisance trips and electromagnetic interference, supporting regulatory compliance and cleaner signal integrity in control panels. Application Ideal for safety-critical applications in process automation and data acquisition. Feature NEMA 4X enclosure → Business Impact Weatherproof and corrosion-resistant housing extends service life in harsh environments, lowering maintenance frequency and replacement costs. Application Outdoor enclosures, wash-down areas, and corrosive industrial settings benefit from this rugged protection. Feature External side mounting → Business Impact Streamlined installation in crowded or retrofit panels, saving mounting space and improving serviceability. Application Retrofit projects and compact switchgear installations where space is at a premium. Feature 10-year warranty → Business Impact Long-term protection reduces lifecycle costs and procurement risk, providing predictable budgeting for maintenance and reliability programs. Application Enterprise-wide electrical protection programs seeking total cost of ownership reductions.

FAQs
SPC080480N2P supports external side mounting, which simplifies installation in space-constrained panels and retrofit projects. This mounting approach minimizes panel alterations, accelerates commissioning, and reduces labor costs, making it a practical choice for upgrading legacy systems without major enclosure modifications.
The SPC080480N2P provides a voltage rating of 488 V and an interrupt rating of 80 kAIC, designed for single-phase 480 V systems. These specs deliver strong protection for downstream equipment like PLCs, drives, and distributors, while matching common industrial power architectures.
Yes. The device carries UL 1449 certification and UL1283 5th Edition filtering, with a NEMA 4X enclosure. This combination supports regulatory compliance and reliability in harsh environments, including wash-down areas and outdoor installations where moisture or dust exposure is a concern.
Absolutely. By clamping voltage spikes up to 80 kAIC and filtering transients, it minimizes downstream damage to motors, drives, and control electronics. The result is fewer outage events, lower repair costs, and improved line productivity, delivering tangible return on investment over the system lifetime.
The SPC080480N2P offers a 10-year warranty, providing long-term protection and budgeting predictability. In addition to the warranty, Eaton’s technical support resources help with installation guidance, spare parts, and maintenance planning to maximize uptime and reliability.
