Eaton 16220-3H Power distribution block - SCCR 100 kAIC
Part Number: 16220-3H
Quick Summary
Eaton 16220-3H Power distribution block is designed to deliver reliable, compact power distribution in industrial control panels. This three-pole unit handles up to 175 A with a 600 Vac / 600 Vdc rating, helping engineers simplify wiring and reduce panel depth. In practice, teams struggle with matching high fault-current ratings to safe, accessible termination in limited space; the 100 kAIC SCCR supports heavy-duty protection while maintaining service continuity. Compliance notes include RoHS compliance and manufacturer-driven certifications; confirm CE/UL/IEC marks with the supplier as part of your qualification process. By combining robust performance with easy installation and documented compatibility, this block supports fast deployment, reduces lifecycle costs, and improves overall system reliability for manufacturing, packaging, and energy-management applications.
