FAQs
External sidemount installation allows the SPD080600Y3K to be mounted outside electrical distribution equipment, reducing enclosure changes and minimizing work inside crowded panels. For retrofit projects, ensure mounting surface is level, use the provided hardware, and route conductors to the L-N, L-G, N-G, and L-L terminals. This approach speeds up replacement and reduces labor costs while maintaining accessibility for testing and surge monitoring.
An 80 kAIC interrupt rating indicates the device can safely interrupt high-energy surge events up to 80 kiloamperes at measured initiation. This level supports robust defense against lightning-induced and utility transients common in medium to large electrical systems. In practice, it translates to greater protection for equipment like drives, transformers, and control panels in industrial settings.
Yes, SPD080600Y3K is designed for 347/600V wye systems, including four-wire plus ground configurations (4W+G). It is well suited for industrial facilities, manufacturing lines, data centers, and commercial power distribution where reliable surge protection and monitoring are required to minimize downtime and equipment wear. Its sidemount, NEMA 1 enclosure simplifies integration in indoor environments.
The SPD080600Y3K carries UL 1449 listing, a key standard for surge protection devices. It uses a NEMA 1 enclosure suitable for indoor installations, providing basic protection against dust and incidental contact. While CE is not explicitly listed in the data, UL 1449 compliance is a strong indicator of industrial safety alignment, and the enclosure rating supports standard control room and equipment room deployments.
The built-in surge counter supports proactive maintenance planning by indicating surge activity and system health over time. The 15-year warranty reduces lifecycle costs, while the 4W+G configuration simplifies grounding strategies and reduces the risk of ground faults. Together, these features improve uptime, simplify compliance reporting, and lower total cost of ownership for critical loads in manufacturing and facilities management.
