The SPC100120N5P features a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, providing robust protection against high-energy transients and reducing the risk of equipment failure during lightning events or utility disturbances. This translates to lower maintenance costs and less production interruption for critical processes. Its 120 V single-phase rating suits compact industrial feeders and control circuits, while the NEMA 4X enclosure enables outdoor or wash-down environments to remain protected. The alarm and Form C relay deliver immediate remote status alerts, enabling faster MTTR and informed asset management. With UL 1449 certification, users gain regulatory assurance and a clearly defined maintenance baseline, while the 10-year warranty reinforces total cost of ownership advantages. External side mounting simplifies retrofits and cabinet integration, improving installation speed in existing lines and minimizing downtime during upgrades.

FAQs
For best results, install the SPC100120N5P on external side mounting within a compatible panel, ensure adequate clearance for heat dissipation, and route signals to the alarm/Form C relay. Verify 120 V single-phase supply and maintain NEMA 4X enclosure protection in harsh environments. Follow Eaton’s datasheet recommendations for wiring polarity and labeling to simplify maintenance.
Yes. Its 100 kAIC interrupt rating and UL 1449 certification make it appropriate for high-energy transient protection in data centers and manufacturing floors. The NEMA 4X enclosure plus alarm relay supports remote monitoring, while the compact footprint fits standard panel spaces, enabling reliable protection without reconfiguring existing layouts.
SPC100120N5P is part of the SPC series and shares mounting, electrical interface, and signaling conventions with other SPC devices. External side mounting and 120 V single-phase operation align with typical SPC deployments, simplifying upgrades or expansions within an Eaton-protected network.
The SPC100120N5P is UL 1449 listed, supporting regulatory compliance for surge protection in industrial equipment. Its NEMA 4X enclosure provides environmental protection against dust and water. A 10-year warranty further guarantees performance, contributing to predictable maintenance budgets and long-term ROI.
By limiting surge-related damage, the device reduces unplanned outages and drive failures, lowering repair costs and maintenance downtime. The remote alarm relay improves fault visibility, accelerating response times, while the long warranty and robust UL 1449 certification help justify the initial investment through extended asset life and increased process uptime.
