Special features
Standard with surge counter
320 kA per phase surge rating delivers substantial protection against high-energy transients. This translates to lower risk of data loss, equipment damage, and unplanned downtime in critical loads. In data centers, manufacturing lines, and switchgear rooms, that protection translates to higher uptime and longer asset life. Two-module architecture in a 120/208 V Wye (4W+G) configuration enables scalable protection for common North American power systems. That means easier panel-wide deployment and consistent protection across multiple circuits without redesign. Field engineers can rely on a familiar arrangement while maintaining coordination with upstream breakers. NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal circuit breaker provides durable, weather-resistant protection plus integrated fault isolation. This reduces external components and simplifies installation in outdoor, wet, or dusty environments. For industrial sites or outdoor equipment cabinets, this minimizes enclosure penetrations and maintenance complexity. Standard surge counter offers real-time visibility into surge events. This improves maintenance planning and evidence-based asset management, helping justify protection budgets. Installers and inspectors benefit from accurate event history in control rooms and service vans. RoHS compliance and UL/CSA certifications validate safety and regulatory readiness. That supports compliance reporting, supplier audits, and quality assurance programs. In regulated industries like oil and gas, water treatment, and data centers, this reduces procurement risk. Long warranty of 15 years, 20 years when registered on Eaton SPD site, provides total cost of ownership advantages. Coupled with robust protection, this reduces replacement costs and extends asset life. In practice, engineering teams report faster ROI through reduced downtime and fewer spare-part requirements.

FAQs

The SPM320208Y1W is designed for 120/208 V Wye installations (4W+G). Mount the unit in a suitable enclosure, connect line and load conductors to the two-module assembly, and ensure proper grounding. The enclosure is NEMA 4X, enabling outdoor or harsh-environment installations. After wiring, verify the internal circuit breaker is in the ON position and confirm surge-counter readings during commissioning for baseline documentation.
This model is UL 1283 and UL 1449 listed with CSA references, and RoHS compliant. These certifications verify electrical safety, surge protection performance, and regulatory compliance, which supports risk management, supplier audits, and compliance reporting for regulated industries.
Yes. The unit features a NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal circuit breaker, providing weather resistance and protection in outdoor or damp environments. This makes it suitable for exterior panels, outdoor equipment rooms, and exposed electrical installations when installed by qualified personnel.
The device provides 320 kA per phase protection in a 120/208 V Wye (4W+G) configuration. This high rating helps absorb large transient events, reducing the likelihood of equipment damage and unplanned downtime in critical power feeds.
The product carries a 15-year warranty from delivery, extending to 20 years when registered on Eaton’s SPD site. Combined with the built-in surge counter and robust enclosure, this reduces replacement costs, improves asset life, and supports a faster return on investment through minimized downtime and predictable power protection budgets.
