SPD120208Y3F delivers robust, panel-level protection with a 120/208V wye configuration and a 200 kAIC interrupt rating, translating to safer electronics, reduced downtime, and lower replacement costs in high-surge environments. The 20 kA nominal discharge current provides a practical balance of protection and component life, enabling reliable operation across 50/60 Hz systems and a wide operating temperature range. Top terminals and internal integrated mounting simplify installation, enabling neater wiring and faster panel integration, especially in crowded electrical rooms or retrofit projects. Audible alarm with a silence button, Form C relay contact, and EMI/RFI filtering up to 50 dB give immediate fault visibility and EMC compliance without adding external accessories. The standard feature package includes a surge counter for maintenance planning and traceability, making ongoing diagnostics straightforward. Compatibility with PRL-C panelboards supports scalable protection for growing facilities, while the counter package helps ensure traceable protection performance over time.
