SPC
SPC120480Y3P delivers a 120 kAIC interrupt rating, enabling robust surge extinction for 277/480V Wye systems across industrial controls. This high protection level translates into fewer equipment failures, lower repair costs, and reduced downtime during lightning events or grid disturbances. In practical terms, technicians install it at service entrances and panelboards where large motor drives and PLCs are concentrated, delivering dependable protection even under extreme fault currents. Audible alarm signaling provides immediate notification when protection is compromised, supporting faster fault isolation and scheduled maintenance. This feature integrates with existing plant alarms and maintenance workflows, helping operators triage issues without chasing intermittent faults. The result is improved mean time to repair and more reliable production schedules. Rugged NEMA 4X enclosure design protects against dust, moisture, and corrosion, enabling installation in harsh environments and outdoor locations. External side mounting simplifies retrofits and upgrades by aligning with common protection strategies and existing enclosures. The compact footprint facilitates seamless integration into crowded switchgear cabinets. UL 1449 listing confirms compliance with essential surge protection safety standards, complemented by a 10-year warranty that limits lifecycle costs while providing long-term confidence. The product’s combination of proven performance and documentation supports procurement goals and reduces risk in regulated environments. Customers in data centers, water treatment, and heavy manufacturing trust SPC120480Y3P for reliable protection of sensitive drives and control electronics. Its 277/480V Wye rating supports standard industrial power networks, enabling straightforward integration with existing protection schemes.
