Eaton Specification Sheet - 16530-3
High current capability, 760 A at 600 Vac / 600 Vdc, enables higher power handling in a single block, reducing the need for multiple parallel modules and simplifying wiring in industrial panels. This translates to faster installation, lower assembly time, and improved reliability in motor drives and industrial controls. The three-pole molded thermoplastic construction offers robust mechanical integrity while resisting vibration in harsh environments, supporting longer service life in manufacturing floors and outdoor enclosures. UL 94-V0 flammability rating enhances safety in critical panels, helping meet fire-safety codes and simplifying compliance documentation. RoHS compliance reduces environmental impact and streamlines procurement for modern automation equipment. Its compact footprint (5.48 in depth, 2.89 in height, 8 in width) fits standard enclosures, enabling denser layouts without sacrificing accessibility for terminations. The Eaton Bussmann series compatibility ensures consistent parts availability, straightforward stocking, and unified sourcing across automation projects. Overall, the 16530-3 delivers reliable high-current distribution with straightforward installation, regulatory alignment, and long-term cost reductions in panel designs.

FAQs
Install the 16530-3 in a suitable enclosure using standard mounting practices for three-pole blocks. Ensure adequate clearance for heat dissipation and proper terminal access. Verify the 760 A rating aligns with your feeder conductor sizing and use appropriate connectors compatible with molded thermoplastic bodies. Always follow manufacturer guidelines for torque and safety precautions to maintain UL 94-V0 compliance.
The 16530-3 supports up to 760 A with a voltage rating of 600 Vac and 600 Vdc. This makes it suitable for high-current distribution in industrial control panels, conveyor systems, and motor drives. When designing a system, ensure wiring and protection devices are sized to meet or exceed these ratings for safe operation.
Yes. The 16530-3 is a three-pole power distribution block designed for high-current, three-phase or three-supply configurations in 600 Vac environments. Its molded thermoplastic body and UL 94-V0 rating provide safe operation in panel-mounted applications, while the 760 A rating supports substantial current in compact form factors.
The unit features UL 94-V0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance, with manufacturer certification notes. These certifications help with safety documentation, regulatory approvals, and supplier audits, enabling smoother integration into modern automation equipment and compliant energy systems.
The 16530-3 offers high-current capacity in a single block, reducing part count and wiring complexity, which lowers installation time and potential fault points. Its robust construction and RoHS compliance support long service intervals, while compatibility with the Eaton Bussmann series helps stabilize procurement costs and lead times, contributing to lower total cost of ownership over the panel’s lifecycle.
