SPC
The SPC120480N2P features a high 120 kAIC interrupt rating, providing strong transient withstand capability that minimizes downstream equipment stress and potential failures. This translates to measurable uptime gains in manufacturing lines and critical power rails, while reducing nuisance tripping and maintenance costs. Its 488 V voltage rating makes it suitable for industrial and commercial distribution networks, ensuring robust protection across 480 V systems. The NEMA 4X enclosure delivers IP-rated protection against dust, water, and harsh environmental conditions, enabling safe outdoor or ingress-prone installations without enclosure compromise. Integrated filtering (UL1283 5th Edition) suppresses EMI/RFI, safeguarding sensitive electronics and control systems from noise-related performance issues. External side mounting simplifies retrofits and upgrades within tight panel spaces, enabling fast, disruption-free deployments. The product’s scalable SPC series heritage supports consistent procurement, standardized maintenance, and straightforward compatibility with Eaton protection schemes, aligning with long-term asset management goals and total cost of ownership reductions.
