FAQs
SPD080400Y2M is designed for external sidemount installation on distribution equipment. Plan for the 9.5 in length, 5.4 in width, and 3.45 in height, and ensure appropriate clearance for wiring L-N, L-G, N-G, and L-L connections. Use the internal disconnect option where available and conform to NEMA 1 indoor mounting practices. The device is rated 80 kAIC, which supports protection during high-energy surges, even in retrofit scenarios.
SPD080400Y2M offers an 80 kAIC surge capability, suitable for protecting critical loads against high-energy transients. It is rated for 230/400V wye systems (4W+G) with operating voltages of 320 L-N, 320 L-G, 320 N-G, and 640 L-L. This combination delivers robust performance for panelboards and switchgear in demanding industrial environments, helping to minimize downtime and equipment damage.
Yes. The SPD080400Y2M is designed for indoor use in NEMA 1 enclosures with external sidemount mounting, making it well-suited for control panels, motor control centers, and external distribution equipment where retrofit or new installations require reliable surge protection without compromising enclosure integrity or service access.
This device carries UL 1449 certification, validating its surge protection performance and safety for electrical installations in North America. The product’s enclosure and mounting design also align with standard indoor electrical protection practices. For regional projects, verify local approval requirements and consult Eaton datasheets to confirm compatibility with your regulatory framework.
A 15-year warranty provides long-term assurance of performance and reduces replacement risk, improving total cost of ownership for industrial protection. Access to Eaton brochures, installation manuals, and datasheets accelerates design verification and field deployment, helping OEMs and maintenance teams optimize budgeting, reduce unexpected maintenance, and justify protection investments.
