FAQs
Yes. SPD080600Y4J is designed for motor control centers and uses a 347/600 V Wye (4W+G) configuration, making it a natural fit for common MCC wiring. It integrates with Eaton protection equipment and supports straightforward retrofits in facilities seeking to upgrade transient protection without redesigning the panel. Ensure wiring parity and enclosure clearance during installation.
SPD080600Y4J delivers 80 kA per phase surge capability, allowing it to clamp high-energy transients before they reach motors and drives. This protection reduces insulation stress, minimizes electrical noise, and lowers the risk of nuisance trips. In practice, it extends motor life and improves downstream drive reliability in MCC environments.
Yes. The device is specified for 347/600 V Wye with 4W+G (four conductors plus ground), aligning with typical MCC configurations. This setup supports proper surge routing to ground and ensures compatibility with common motor starter panels, minimizing grounding issues and installation complexity.
SPD080600Y4J carries UL 1449 certification, indicating compliance with recognized safety and performance standards for surge protective devices. This certification supports safer operation, smoother procurement across regulated projects, and easier audits or inspections within industrial facilities that rely on certified protection gear.
