Eaton SPD100208Y4C Surge Protection Device - UL 1449 Certified
Part Number: SPD100208Y4C
Quick Summary
SPD100208Y4C is a surge protection device that safeguards switchboards, busways, and panel boards in commercial and industrial settings. In practice, transient overvoltages can accelerate insulation wear, cause unexpected outages, and drive costly maintenance; this device mitigates those risks. UL 1449 certification underpins safety performance, and the 120/208 V Wye configuration (4W+G) supports typical campus and manufacturing networks, with compatibility that complements Power Xpert SPD systems. The result is improved reliability and reduced total cost of ownership, while enabling easier compliance and predictable protection for critical assets.

FAQs
When installing SPD100208Y4C, verify the device will fit the available panel footprint and mounting space (dimensions around 7.47 in wide, 12.05 in tall, 3.48 in depth) and accept a 6.8 lb unit. Ensure grounding continuity with the 4W+G configuration and connect to the appropriate distribution path in switchboards, busways, or panel boards. Use Power Xpert SPD accessories for monitoring where available to enhance fault visibility and coordination.
SPD100208Y4C is rated for 100 kA per phase surge current, providing robust transient suppression on 120/208 V wye networks. This rating helps absorb high-energy surges from utility events or switching transients, shielding connected equipment such as drives, relays, and control circuits, thereby reducing insulation stress and extending component life.
Yes, SPD100208Y4C is UL 1449 listed, signifying compliance with established surge protection safety standards. It is compatible with Eaton Power Xpert SPD accessories, enabling integrated monitoring and coordinated protection across switchboards, busways, and panel boards for enhanced reliability and easier system management.
This device is well-suited for commercial and industrial applications that utilize 120/208 V distribution, including switchboards, busways, and panel boards (PRL1a, 2a, 3a, 3e, 4). It protects critical equipment near drives, PLCs, and control panels by limiting surge energy, helping minimize downtime and replacement costs while supporting regulatory compliance.
The surge protection device reduces unplanned outages and equipment wear, lowering maintenance intervals and replacement costs. Its UL 1449 certification and compatibility with Power Xpert SPD provide clear regulatory alignment and easier asset management, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership by extending service life and improving system availability.
