High current capacity and multi-pole design enable streamlined wiring. The device offers 310 A amperage with a 600 Vac/600 Vdc rating and a three-pole configuration, backed by SCCR of 100 kAIC. Business impact: you can consolidate distribution for heavy feeders, reducing part counts and panel size. Application: machine controls in manufacturing lines where space is at a premium. Robust safety margins reduce downtime. The 100 kAIC SCCR provides a wide fault-current tolerance, allowing faster startup and fewer protective devices in series. Application: safety-critical feeders in automated lines, robotics stations, and packaging lines. Durable construction supports harsh environments. Molded thermoplastic base with tin-plated aluminum connectors delivers corrosion resistance and reliable contact. Application: outdoor or corrosive plant areas, or where frequent terminal maintenance occurs. Compact footprint simplifies installation. Dimensions 3.95 in length, 3.18 in height, 5.21 in width; weight 1.78 lb. These specs help fit into tight control cabinets and streamline cable routing. Application: panel builders looking to maximize enclosure density. Compliance and procurement efficiency. RoHS compliance and UL Recognized status simplify compliance testing and supplier qualification, while datasheet support provides quick access to installation sheets. Application: procurement and compliance teams seeking approved components for global plants.

FAQs
The 16371-3 is a three-pole power distribution block designed for use in standard control panels and power distribution assemblies. Its molded thermoplastic base and tin-plated aluminum connectors simplify wiring, while its compact footprint suits space-constrained enclosures. It is compatible with typical panel wiring schemes and supports up to 310 A continuous current.
This model delivers 310 A amperage with a voltage rating of 600 Vac and 600 Vdc. It features a short-circuit rating (SCCR) of 100 kAIC, and its three-pole configuration supports efficient distribution of power to multiple loads in a single block. These ratings support demanding automation and machine control environments.
Yes. The 16371-3 is RoHS compliant and UL Recognized, per Eaton's datasheets. These certifications help meet regulatory requirements for global installations and simplify supplier qualification, especially in industries with strict environmental, electrical safety, and compliance standards.
The block measures 3.95 inches in length, 3.18 inches in height, and 5.21 inches in width, with a weight of 1.78 pounds. This compact form factor facilitates dense panel layouts and reduces assembly time while maintaining robust mechanical integrity for industrial environments.
By combining a compact three-pole block, high SCCR, and durable tin-plated connectors, the 16371-3 lowers wiring complexity, reduces panel depth, and minimizes downtime during maintenance. Regulatory compliance and readily available datasheets further streamline procurement, training, and future upgrades, delivering measurable cost savings over the product lifecycle.
