Eaton 16377-1 Power Distribution Block - SCCR 10 kAIC
Part Number: 16377-1
Quick Summary
Power distribution block from Eaton 16377-1 provides reliable, high-current distribution for industrial control panels. Engineers often struggle with limited SCCR ratings and wiring flexibility in compact enclosures, driving the need for a robust block. With 570 A amperage, 600 Vac/600 Vdc voltage ratings, SCCR of 10 kAIC, and RoHS compliance, it supports safe, code-conforming installations. The single-pole Bussmann series block uses a molded thermoplastic base and tin-plated aluminum connectors for durable performance in harsh environments. At just 0.83 lb and a compact footprint, it simplifies panel layouts and reduces assembly time, delivering tangible total cost of ownership benefits.

Eaton Specification Sheet - 16377-1
Feature: The 570 A amperage rating supports large downstream loads without needing multiple blocks. Business Impact: Fewer components mean shorter install times and fewer potential failure points, lowering total costs. Application: Ideal for machine power distribution in presses, conveyors, and integrated packaging lines. Feature: Dual voltage capability (600 Vac and 600 Vdc) offers flexibility across AC and DC control circuits. Business Impact: Simplifies design and reduces part counts when serving mixed-supply equipment. Application: Integration in industrial control panels and drive systems where both AC and DC feeders exist. Feature: SCCR 10 kAIC with a single-pole design provides robust short-circuit protection in shared bus environments. Business Impact: Improves panel safety margins and code compliance without dedicated fuse blocks. Application: Protective distribution in power cabinets within heavy manufacturing. Feature: Molded thermoplastic base and tin-plated aluminum connectors enhance durability and corrosion resistance. Business Impact: Longer service life in harsh environments with reduced maintenance. Application: Enclosures subject to vibration, humidity, and dust. Feature: RoHS compliant, lightweight design at 0.83 lb with a compact footprint of 3.96 in x 3.21 in x 1.97 in. Business Impact: Regulatory compliance and space savings, enabling easier retrofits and new builds in space-constrained panels. Application: Control panels in automotive, packaging, and material handling environments.
