FAQs
Yes. SPD100600Y2L is designed for external side mounting and sidemount configurations, making it suitable for retrofit and new installations adjacent to distribution equipment. It supports 347/600V wye systems and is compatible with standard electrical panels, motor control centers, and feeders where external protection devices are permitted by the enclosure design. Confirm mounting clearances and ensure compliance with local codes during integration.
Key specs include a 100 kAIC interrupt rating and a 347/600V wye (4W+G) configuration, with operating voltages of 420 L-N, 420 L-G, 420 N-G, and 840 L-L. These values indicate robust transient protection for typical medium-voltage distributions found in industrial plants, helping absorb energy from lightning and switching surges while maintaining system integrity and reducing equipment wear on drives and controllers.
Yes. The device’s high interrupt rating and wide operating voltage range make it well-suited for motor control centers, feeders, and other critical distribution points in manufacturing and process facilities. It provides reliable protection for drives, PLCs, sensors, and instrumentation, contributing to improved uptime and reduced nuisance tripping caused by transient events.
SPD100600Y2L is UL 1449 listed, ensuring compliance with safety standards for surge protection devices. This certification supports procurement decisions by aligning with safety and reliability requirements for electrical assemblies. While other certifications like CE or IP ratings are not listed here, the UL 1449 listing and NEMA 1 enclosure offer a clear pathway to compliant installation in many industrial environments.
By limiting transient damage, the SPD reduces repair costs, extends the life of power electronics, and lowers unplanned downtime—key drivers of ROI in manufacturing. Eaton’s technical data, installation manuals, and datasheets support proper selection and installation, while the 15-year warranty provides long-term reliability and predictable maintenance budgeting.
