Eaton SPD080480D4C Surge Protection Device - UL 1449
Part Number: SPD080480D4C
Quick Summary
SPD080480D4C is a surge protection device designed for 480 Delta three-phase systems in switchboards and panel boards. Engineers face downtime and equipment damage from transient surges, so reliable protection is critical to safeguard drives, PLCs, and other sensitive electronics. UL 1449 certification anchors its safety and performance, while many projects in global facilities reference additional regional requirements such as CE or IP ratings where applicable. This Eaton solution integrates with Power Xpert SPD, offering fast response, clear diagnostics, and straightforward installation in compatible switchgear. By protecting feeders and distribution panels, it helps reduce maintenance, spare parts, and unplanned outages, delivering tangible business value for electrical protection programs.

Surge current
80 kA per phase
80 kA per phase surge capability delivers robust protection for critical feeders and downstream equipment. This translates to fewer interruptions from transient events, reduced arc-flash risk, and lower replacement costs over the life of the installation. It is designed for 480 Delta (3W+G) systems and is ideal for switchboards, busways, and panel boards in industrial facilities. UL 1449 certification provides a proven baseline for safety and surge performance, helping project teams meet common electrical protection standards. The Eaton SPD series is built for long-term reliability in harsh environments, supported by documentation for fast engineering approval. Power Xpert SPD compatibility enables seamless integration with Eaton's protection ecosystem, offering coordinated response between upstream protection and downstream devices. The defined enclosure boundaries simplify mounting, while the compatibility with PRL1a, 2a, 3a, 3e, 4 panels broadens applicability. Maintenance and lifecycle costs are reduced through minimized outages and lower spare-parts requirements.
