FAQs
SPD100208Y1Q uses an external side mounting arrangement designed for sidemount installations. This configuration simplifies retrofits, allowing quick integration alongside existing electrical distribution equipment without major panel modifications. Ensure there is adequate clearance for heat dissipation and access for inspection during routine maintenance.
A 100 kAIC interrupt rating indicates the device can safely interrupt and divert very large surge currents without compromising protected circuits. In practice, this reduces the risk of insulation damage to connected equipment such as motors and transformers, lowers the likelihood of nuisance trips, and improves overall system reliability in high-transient environments.
Yes. The SPD100208Y1Q is housed in a NEMA 4X stainless steel enclosure, providing corrosion and moisture resistance appropriate for outdoor or industrial environments. With UL 1449 listing, it meets essential safety and performance standards while remaining reliable under challenging conditions encountered near external distribution equipment.
The device carries UL 1449 listing, a key standard for surge protection performance and safety. The rugged NEMA 4X enclosure further supports environmental protection. These certifications help with regulatory compliance, facilitate procurement approvals, and reassure end users that the equipment meets recognized industry requirements for electrical protection.
With a 15-year warranty and robust construction, SPD100208Y1Q offers a favorable lifecycle cost by reducing downtime, limiting equipment wear from surges, and lowering maintenance frequency. Regular inspections and periodic functional checks are recommended to verify protection status and ensure continued performance in evolving electrical systems.
