High surge current and short-circuit ratings deliver a first line of defense for critical loads, reducing wear and unplanned downtime. With up to 120 kA per phase and a 200 kAIC short-circuit rating, this SPD minimizes damage from large transients in 120/208V panelboards, supporting uptime in manufacturing lines and data-center environments. In practical terms, customers experience fewer cascading faults and lower repair costs, enabling more predictable maintenance windows and longer equipment life. Nominal discharge current of 20 kA provides robust protection without nuisance trips, preserving production continuity for PLCs, drives, and automated sensors across general industry applications. EMI/RFI filtering offers up to 50 dB attenuation from 10 kHz to 100 MHz, yielding cleaner control signals and more reliable communications for factory automation networks. The audible alarm with silence button and a Form C relay appearance enable immediate status indication and remote signaling for plant-wide monitoring, reducing investigative time during disturbances. Internal integrated mounting and left-terminal design streamline wiring, shorten installation cycles, and fit neatly into standard panelboard footprints, including PRL-C configurations. Meets IBC 2006, CBC2007, and UBC Zone 4 requirements, supporting code-compliant installations and reducing compliance risk. Operating at 50/60 Hz and rated for -40 to 50 C, the SPD120208Y2H remains dependable in demanding environments while providing a compact, scalable protection solution for growing electrical systems.

FAQs
SPD120208Y2H is designed for internal integrated mounting with left-terminal access, simplifying wiring in standard panelboards. It supports 120/208V, 4W+G configurations and is compatible with panelboard families like PRL-C. Ensure sufficient clearance for the 12 x 12 x 6 inch footprint and verify ambient temperature ratings of -40 to 50 C for industrial environments.
The SPD120208Y2H provides up to 120 kA per phase surge current and a 200 kAIC short-circuit rating, with a nominal discharge current of 20 kA. These ratings protect downstream equipment such as motors, drives, PLCs, and sensors from high-energy transients common in commercial and industrial power systems.
This device carries UL 1449, UL 1283, and UL Listed certifications. These approvals support code compliance, electrical safety, and performance validation, giving procurement teams confidence in meeting regulatory requirements for panel protections in commercial and industrial facilities.
EMI/RFI filtering provides up to 50 dB attenuation from 10 kHz to 100 MHz, reducing electrical noise that can affect PLCs, sensors, and motor controllers. The result is more stable control signals, fewer false alarms, and improved measurement accuracy—especially in electrically noisy industrial environments.
The SPD operates from -40 to 50 C and at 50/60 Hz, making it suitable for harsh industrial spaces and outdoors-based electrical rooms. Its robust construction, combined with a compact, integrated mounting footprint, supports reliable protection in challenging environments while minimizing space requirements in control panels.
