High surge current rating of 80 kAIC provides substantial headroom for large surges from switching, lightning, and grid events, directly reducing transient‑induced equipment damage. The business impact is clear: fewer unplanned outages and extended life for drives, PLCs, and control panels, especially in feeder and MCC installations where surge events are frequent. Designed for 347/600V wye systems (4W+G) with a 420 V‑L references, the device fits common industrial distributions, enabling faster qualification and safer protection of motors, sensors, and power electronics. The NEMA 4X enclosure offers rugged environmental protection, supporting outdoor and washdown areas, while external sidemount mounting accelerates retrofit projects by simplifying wiring and service access. A standard feature package plus an integrated surge counter provides asset‑monitoring data that supports predictive maintenance and compliance reporting. The 15‑year warranty further reduces total cost of ownership by lowering replacement cycles and service interruptions. This model’s compact footprint (9.5 in L × 5.4 in W × 3.45 in H) and 3.5 lb weight help with space planning in crowded panels, making installation quicker and safer for technicians.

FAQs
Install the SPD080600Y3O externally to distribution equipment per Eaton's installation manual. Use the sidemount mounting method to minimize panel wiring, ensure proper clearances, and connect to L, N, and protective ground as specified for 347/600V wye configurations. The unit includes a surge counter for monitoring and validation during commissioning.
An 80 kAIC interrupt rating indicates the device can safely interrupt and divert very large surge currents without failing, providing superior protection for critical loads such as drives, PLCs, and panels. This reduces the likelihood of transient damage during severe lightning or switching events and supports longer asset life and lower maintenance costs.
Yes. The unit uses a NEMA 4X rated enclosure, designed to withstand outdoor and washdown environments. This makes it suitable for exterior panels, service entrances, and harsh industrial settings where moisture and dust resistance are required.
The SPD080600Y3O is UL 1449 listed, meeting standard safety requirements for surge protective devices. This certification helps ensure compliance with electrical safety codes and reduces commissioning risk. The rugged enclosure and external mounting features further support compliant, safe operation in challenging environments.
The device includes a built‑in surge counter to monitor transient events, supporting proactive maintenance planning and reliability analytics. Coupled with a 15‑year warranty, this translates to lower replacement costs, fewer unscheduled outages, and a clear ROI from protecting essential equipment and reducing downtime.
