FAQs
Begin by confirming the 230/400 V Wye configuration and 80 kA per phase rating. Mount the SPD onto the panel’s bus structure per manufacturer's guidelines, connect the L, N, and ground conductors to the appropriate terminals, and secure all connections. Verify UL 1449 compliance during commissioning and test the protection function with a controlled surge source to ensure correct operation before energizing critical loads.
SPD080400Y4A provides 80 kA per phase surge current rating and is specified for 230/400 V Wye (4W+G) systems. This combination supports robust transient suppression for multi-load panels while maintaining safe, reliable operation across typical industrial power distributions.
Yes. The device is designed for direct bus mounted panel boards and integrates with the Power Xpert SPD family, enabling streamlined protection deployment and future upgrades within existing panel architectures.
It is well suited for industrial control panels, MCCs, and other critical loads powered by 230/400 V systems. Its high surge capacity, UL 1449 listing, and direct bus mounted compatibility make it a preferred choice for protecting servo drives, PLCs, and other sensitive equipment across manufacturing lines.
By reducing transient damage, downtime, and unplanned maintenance, the SPD helps extend equipment life and lower operating costs. Its easy installation and scalable Power Xpert SPD integration also simplify preventive maintenance planning and compliance auditing, delivering measurable total cost of ownership benefits over the life of the protection system.
