Intermatic IG1200RC3 – Surge Protective Device – 120/240 Volt, 7.5kA, Single Phase

What This Part Is Used For
The Intermatic IG1200RC3 is a surge protective device installed at the equipment pad or load center to protect pool and spa electrical systems. It is designed for 120/240 volt single phase applications and helps shield pumps, heaters, and control systems from voltage spikes.

Why This Part Matters
