Paragraphs are presented in a continuous text format to meet the requested structure. 100 kAIC interrupt rating provides robust transient protection for critical loads in industrial panels, helping prevent unplanned downtime and costly equipment wear. The SPD100600Y3K is designed for 347/600V wye systems (4W+G) and supports 420 V line-to-neutral, line-to-ground, and 420 V line-to-line alongside 840 V L-L operating voltage, giving broad compatibility with common distribution schemes. This combination minimizes the risk of nuisance trips during voltage spikes while preserving control system integrity and protecting motors, drives, and programmable logic controllers. External side mounting simplifies installation and future upgrades by allowing sidemount integration without modifications to the main bus or distribution equipment. That compatibility translates to shorter commissioning times, easier retrofits, and reduced field wiring complexity in crowded electrical rooms. The standard feature package, including a surge counter, enables proactive monitoring and immediate visibility into surge events, supporting maintenance planning and root-cause analysis after events. Enclosure is NEMA 1, suitable for indoor installations in controlled environments and aligns with common facility codes for manufacturing, data centers, and warehouses. The device is UL 1449-listed, reinforcing safety and performance under surge conditions. By delivering a clearly defined 100 kAIC rating, it supports reliable protection for heat-sensitive loads and power supplies while avoiding excessive energy dissipation in the distribution network. Warranty of 15 years signals long-term reliability, reducing owner risk for mission-critical equipment and lowering total cost of ownership. The built-in surge counter provides auditable data, supporting maintenance intervals and evidence of performance during disturbances. External sidemounting also simplifies compliance documentation and inspections, while the compact footprint keeps valuable panel space available for future expansion. In practice, this translates to faster project execution and lower lifecycle costs for electrical protection investments.

FAQs

When planning installation, ensure compatible indoor space for a sidemounted device with external access. Verify that the mounting surface accommodates the 9.5 in depth and 5.4 in width, and leave clearances for serviceable access to the surge counter. Use proper wiring practices for 347/600V wye systems and follow local codes to maximize protection efficacy and ease future upgrades.
A 100 kAIC interrupt rating provides headroom to absorb large transient events without tripping upstream breakers. This reduces the likelihood of nuisance outages and protects sensitive loads such as drives and PLCs. In practice, you gain higher reliability during lightning surges or switching transients while maintaining system availability and extending component life.
No, the SPD100600Y3K is configured with a NEMA 1 enclosure intended for indoor installations in controlled environments. For outdoor or harsh environments, a different enclosure rating (such as NEMA 3R or higher) would be required, and integration should consider environmental protection, cooling, and moisture ingress prevention.
The SPD100600Y3K is UL 1449-listed, confirming safety and performance under surge conditions. It is designed for indoor panels with a NEMA 1 enclosure and external sidemounting, aligning with common electrical protection standards and installation practices in industrial facilities.
The built-in surge counter provides tangible event data, enabling proactive maintenance planning and documentation of surge activity. This data supports root-cause analysis after disturbances, helps justify protection investments, and contributes to lower downtime costs by enabling targeted preventative actions and more accurate lifecycle cost assessments.
