Eaton SPC200120N8P Surge Protection Device - UL 1449
Part Number: SPC200120N8P
Quick Summary
SPC200120N8P surge protection device safeguards critical electrical systems in commercial and light-industrial panels. This device helps prevent damage from transient surges and the costly downtime that follows power events. Many facilities struggle with unplanned outages and equipment failures that disrupt production—and regulation-compliant protection is often overlooked until it’s too late. The SPC series is UL 1449 certified and housed in a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure, with a 200 kAIC interrupt rating that stands up to demanding environments. Designed for 120 V single-phase circuits, it supports external side mounting and straightforward retrofit into existing distributions, while its alarm relay provides clear condition monitoring for maintenance teams. By combining protection with monitoring and ease of install, it delivers tangible business value through reduced downtime and longer equipment life.
