Eaton BG3033P Open Fuse Block UL Recognized - 100 kAIC
Part Number: BG3033P
Quick Summary
BG3033P is an open fuse block that safely houses SC fuses for protecting electrical feeders in industrial control panels. Engineers often struggle with ensuring reliable terminations, proper wire sizing (#14-10 AWG Cu/Al), and meeting safety standards during panel retrofits. This unit carries UL Recognized and CSA Certified markings and RoHS compliance, with a Class G designation and a 100 kAIC interrupt rating for dependable protection. Its compact 2.5 in depth and 3 in width simplifies mounting in crowded panels, saving space and reducing wiring time. In practice, field installation is further aided by a pressure-plate connection and thermoplastic body for reliable, lightweight operation.

Eaton Specification Sheet - BG3033P
Open fuse block design enables rapid fuse installation and replacement. This reduces maintenance downtime and labor costs in busy panels. It is ideal for SC fuse configurations in power distribution blocks and control cabinets. High-current and voltage capability delivers a safety margin for fault events. The BG3033P is rated 25–30 A at 480 V with a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, enabling dependable protection for motors, conveyors, and feeders in industrial panels. Compact, reliable termination is achieved through a pressure-plate connection in a thermoplastic enclosure. This design reduces termination torque issues, simplifies field wiring, and improves vibration resistance in challenging environments. Wire-size versatility with #14-10 AWG Cu/Al simplifies field wiring and reduces the need for adapters or splicing. It enables quick, code-compliant terminations in standard control panels. RoHS compliance alongside UL Recognized and CSA Certified marks support regulatory acceptance. This minimizes risk during inspections and ensures consistent performance in regulated environments. Compact footprint and light weight facilitate retrofits and enclosure planning. With 2.5 in depth, 3 in width, 2.5 in height, and 0.191 lb weight, installation is straightforward in tight spaces.

FAQs
The BG3033P is designed for SC fuses and supports wire sizes #14-10 AWG Cu/Al. It is rated 25–30 A at 480 V with a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, Class G, and uses a pressure-plate termination in a thermoplastic enclosure. It is RoHS Compliant and UL Recognized, CSA Certified for compliance.
Install BG3033P by mounting the block in the target enclosure with the pressure-plate terminals accessible. Use #14-10 AWG Cu/Al conductors, strip per local code, and tighten to recommended torque as per manufacturer. The 2.5 in by 3 in footprint fits compact panels, while its 480 V rating and 100 kAIC interrupt rating provide margin for fault conditions. Verify RoHS and UL CSA markings.
Yes. BG3033P carries UL Recognized and CSA Certified markings, confirming electrical safety and performance standards, and it is RoHS Compliant, restricting hazardous substances. These certifications support regulatory compliance during audits and in regulated environments. The thermoplastic body and Class G fuse block construction further align with industry best practices for panel protection in industrial settings.
BG3033P occupies a compact footprint suitable for tight enclosures. The product measures 2.5 in depth, 3 in width, and 2.5 in height, with an approximate weight of 0.191 lb. These dimensions facilitate clean routing, reduce enclosure space requirements, and streamline retrofits in control panels while maintaining robust mechanical integrity. The compact size also eases ventilation considerations in confined electrical rooms.
Typical applications include protection and control of feeders in industrial control panels, switchgear, and distribution blocks where SC fuses are preferred for fast clearing. The BG3033P’s 480 V rating, 100 kAIC interrupt capability, and Class G construction support reliable protection for motors, conveyors, and process lines while complying with RoHS and recognized safety standards.
