80 kA per phase
80 kA per phase surge capability is the centerpiece of SPD080600Y4N. This rating ensures robust protection for sensitive loads such as VFDs, PLCs, drives, and control panels during high-energy transients, dramatically reducing the risk of downstream equipment damage and unplanned downtime. In practice, you’ll see fewer nuisance trips and extended life for motor starters and protective relays, translating into higher line efficiency and a more predictable maintenance window for production lines. The device is specified for 347/600 V Wye with a 4W+G configuration, aligning with common three-phase power distributions in manufacturing facilities. This wiring scheme simplifies installation and reduces the need for adapters or conversions, improving reliability and speeding up commissioning. The 347/600 V rating also provides a clear compatibility target for protection schemes around large loads, drives, and distribution panels. Enclosed in a NEMA 4-rated housing, SPD080600Y4N is built to withstand dust, moisture, and washdown environments encountered on plant floors, production lines, and outdoor installations. The device’s compact footprint fits standard electrical cabinets, enabling straightforward retrofits and minimizing field modification work. With durable construction and straightforward mounting, replacement is quick, reducing downtime during protection upgrades. UL 1449 certification confirms conformance to essential surge protection standards, while Power Xpert SPD compatibility supports monitoring, diagnostics, and integration with Eaton’s protection ecosystem. This combination helps maintenance teams verify protection status, trigger proactive alerts, and optimize spare parts and service intervals. The result is a more proactive protection strategy that aligns with reliability-focused procurement goals. Combined specifications—80 kA per phase, 347/600 V Wye, UL 1449, and a NEMA 4 enclosure—translate into measurable business value: lower maintenance costs, improved equipment uptime, and stronger protection against power quality disturbances. Engineers can rely on SPD080600Y4N to future-proof critical lines as the facility expands, while procurement gains a clearly defined, standards-based solution with predictable lead times.

FAQs
SPD080600Y4N is designed for straightforward mounting inside standard control cabinets and NEMA 4 enclosures. Use four conductors (4W) plus ground (G) per the 4W+G configuration and connect to the distribution bus per Eaton's installation guidelines. Ensure voltage rating matches your system (347/600 V) and verify torque specifications. Use Power Xpert SPD monitoring after wiring to confirm protection status.
An 80 kA per phase rating indicates the device can safely absorb high-energy transients without transmitting damaging energy downstream. This protects motors, drives, PLCs, and other controllers from lightning strikes and switching spikes, reducing the likelihood of component damage and unplanned downtime. It supports longer asset life in high-demand production environments.
Yes. The SPD080600Y4N is specifically rated for 347/600 V Wye (4W+G) configurations, aligning with common industrial distributions. It is designed for easy integration with Eaton’s Power Xpert SPD ecosystem, enabling monitoring and coordinated protection across drives, panels, and feeders for a cohesive protection strategy.
SPD080600Y4N carries UL 1449 certification, validating safety and performance for surge protection devices. This is a critical criterion for regulatory compliance, supplier qualification, and installation approvals. The product also features a NEMA 4 enclosure for environmental protection, ensuring reliable operation in dusty, wet, or washdown environments.
The ROI stems from reduced downtime, fewer equipment failures, and longer asset life due to robust surge protection. With 80 kA per phase and UL 1449 protection, maintenance costs decline as faults are detected earlier and monitored via Power Xpert. Over time, you gain more predictable production schedules and lower spare-parts inventory for protection systems.
