Feature → Business Impact → Application: 100 kA per phase surge current with a 200 kAIC short-circuit rating prevents high-energy transients from reaching motor controls, reducing equipment damage and downtime in MCCs. Application: protects motor starters and drives in industrial facilities with heavy motor loads, improving uptime and extending component life. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 277/480 V wye (4W+G) with 320 L-N, 320 L-G, 320 N-G, and 640 L-L MCOV provides versatile protection across common MCC feeders, streamlining installation and minimizing miswiring risks. Application: suitable for mixed-voltage MCC configurations in manufacturing lines and process plants. Feature → Business Impact → Application: EMI/RFI filtering delivering up to 50 dB noise attenuation from 10 kHz to 100 MHz reduces electrical noise, improving PLC and drive performance and signaling reliability. Application: helps precision control systems maintain accurate operation in noisy plant environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: audible alarm with silence button, Form C relay contact, and surge counter with rest button enable proactive monitoring and quick response to surge events. Application: simplifies maintenance routines and enhances fault diagnostics in MCC ecosystems. Feature → Business Impact → Application: internal integrated mounting and a compact footprint (9.5 in L × 3.45 in H × 5.4 in W, ~3.5 lb) allow easy retrofits and clean panel integration. Application: ideal for space-constrained MCC cabinets and new installations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL 1449 Listed certification and a 15-year warranty provide regulatory confidence and long-term protection, reducing lifecycle risk and warranty costs. Application: procurement teams gain a robust, standards-aligned surge protector for mission-critical MCC protection.

FAQs
Install the SPD100480Y3J as an internal MCC protection module, using its internal integrated mounting method. Ensure clearance for venting and wiring, connect across L-N, L-G, and N-G per the 320/640 MCOV ratings, and integrate the Form C relay for status signaling. Utilize the surge counter for ongoing monitoring and set the audible alarm to match plant procedures.
This device provides 100 kA per phase surge current with 200 kAIC short-circuit capacity and a nominal discharge current of 20 kA. It operates at 277/480 V wye (4W+G) with multiple phase-to-neutral and line-to-line voltage protections (320 L-N, 320 L-G, 320 N-G, 640 L-L) and 50/60 Hz compatibility.
Yes. It operates from -40 to 50 °C and is designed for motor control centers. Its EMI/RFI filtering (up to 50 dB from 10 kHz to 100 MHz) helps reduce electrical noise in drives and PLCs, while the integrated mounting and compact footprint support easy retrofit and clean installation in space-constrained MCC cabinets.
The SPD100480Y3J is UL 1449 Listed, ensuring compliance with recognized safety standards. It meets or exceeds applicable building and electrical protection norms for MCC environments, and it carries a 15-year warranty, supporting long-term reliability and regulatory confidence in industrial facilities.
By limiting transient surges and providing a surge counter for proactive maintenance, the SPD reduces unplanned downtime and wear on MCC components. The audible alarm and Form C relay enable rapid fault detection, while the 15-year warranty lowers lifecycle risk and supports predictable maintenance budgeting.
