Eaton Bussmann series power distribution block - 10 kAIC
Part Number: 16325-1
Quick Summary
The Eaton Bussmann series power distribution block is a reliable solution for safe, centralized power routing in industrial control panels. Upgrading legacy panels often stalls due to insufficient short-circuit ratings, cumbersome wiring, and installation challenges. While RoHS compliant, this block provides a robust 350 A rating with SCCR of 10 kAIC and supports both 600 Vac and 600 Vdc, enabling flexible use across AC and DC systems. This combination helps engineers reduce panel footprint, simplify wiring, and meet practical safety and compliance requirements. By leveraging a compact, single-pole design with a tin-plated aluminum connector, manufacturers can streamline commissioning, improve uptime, and lower total cost of ownership in automation and power-distribution applications.

FAQs
The 16325-1 is a single-pole block with a compact footprint designed for panel mounting in industrial control cabinets. It uses a molded thermoplastic base and a tin-plated aluminum connector, supporting straightforward wiring: ensure appropriate panel cutouts and secure mounting hardware, and follow standard torque values for the connection to maximize reliability in machines and conveyors.
Yes. The block is rated for 600 Vac and 600 Vdc, with an amperage rating of 350 A and a short-circuit rating (SCCR) of 10 kAIC. This enables safe distribution in mixed-power panels, reduces the need for upstream protective devices, and supports both motor drives and DC control circuits within automation cabinets.
Absolutely. Its compact dimensions, single-pole design, and high SCCR make it well-suited for dense control panels found in robotics, material handling, and packaging lines. The combination of RoHS compliance, durable materials, and reliable connections helps maintain uptime and simplifies panel layouts in high-volume automation environments.
The 16325-1 is RoHS compliant, and manufacturer certifications are available upon request. While specific third-party certifications aren’t listed in the provided data, RoHS compliance supports regulatory alignment in many global markets, and you can obtain official certification documents from Eaton as needed for your quality and regulatory filings.
The block’s robust electrical ratings, durable materials, and compact form factor reduce wiring complexity and panel space, which lowers commissioning time and maintenance labor. Its high SCCR enhances safety margins, potentially reducing downtime from fault events and enabling simpler spare-part strategies. Overall, the 16325-1 supports faster deployments and a lower total cost of ownership in automation installations.
