Eaton SPD080240S3P Surge Protection Device - UL 1449

With an 80 kAIC interrupt rating, the SPD080240S3P absorbs surge energy that would otherwise reach downstream equipment, reducing the risk of insulation breakdown and unexpected downtime. This capability translates into lower repair costs and longer service life for motor starters, drives, and PLCs in industrial panels. The unit operates at 120/240 V and supports multiple reference points—150 L-N, 150 L-G, 150 N-G, and 300 L-L—facilitating versatile protection for common U.S. electrical systems, which speeds up design decisions and reduces the need for multiple protection devices in a single installation. A NEMA 4X stainless steel enclosure provides durable protection against moisture and corrosive environments, extending service life in challenging industrial settings. The external sidemount mounting enables installation outside the main electrical distribution equipment, freeing space inside panels and enabling retrofit in existing installations without major disassembly. The standard feature package includes a surge counter, giving operators visibility into surge activity and enabling proactive maintenance and regulatory audits. A 15-year warranty reduces lifecycle costs and simplifies procurement planning, while compatibility with the SPD series sidemount variants supports scalable protection as facilities expand. In practice, users experience fewer unplanned outages, easier compliance reporting, and faster project justifications for protection upgrades.
