Eaton 16323-1 Power distribution block - SCCR 100 kAIC
Part Number: 16323-1
Quick Summary
Power distribution block from Eaton provides a compact, high-current bus protection solution for industrial control panels. Engineers often struggle with fitting large conductors and meeting safety ratings in constrained enclosures, which leads to compromise on performance. The 16323-1 block delivers a robust 310A rating and a 100 kAIC short-circuit rating, with 600 Vac and 600 Vdc voltage capability, while its molded thermoplastic base and tin-plated aluminum connector support reliable, long-term service. RoHS compliance helps simplify regulatory adherence, and the compact 3.95 in length, 3.18 in height, and 1.98 in width support tight panel layouts. Using Eaton Bussmann series blocks can reduce wiring complexity and improve maintainability in power distribution stages.

High-current capability and compact footprint drive design efficiency. The 310A amperage rating paired with a single-pole configuration supports primary feeders in control panels without requiring oversized hardware, reducing enclosure footprint and material costs. This enables tighter layouts in machine automation while preserving performance and safety. The SCCR of 100 kAIC enhances fault tolerance, meaning panels are better protected during short-circuit events and compliance with electrical safety standards is easier to demonstrate. Voltage versatility is a key benefit, with a 600 Vac and 600 Vdc rating that accommodates both AC and DC control schemes across industrial installations, from motor drives to DC bus systems. The molded thermoplastic base and tin-plated aluminum connector offer durable mechanical and electrical interfaces, delivering reliable connections even in vibration-prone or harsh environments. Dimensions and weight—3.95 in L × 3.18 in H × 1.98 in W and 0.64 lb—support straightforward panel mounting and retrofit projects. RoHS compliance further simplifies regulatory conformity across global supply chains and end-user installations.
