Eaton Specification Sheet - BKG2G175H
Three-phase design with a 175A rated current and 480V operation delivers robust overcurrent protection for motor feeders and distribution circuits. This ensures reliable interruption performance and aligned interrupting capacity, reducing the risk of unexpected faults in demanding industrial environments. Application: ideal for Eaton panelboards and other three-phase distribution systems in manufacturing and facilities with high motor loads. Compact footprint (6 in depth x 4 in width x 3 in height) and a 5 lb weight simplify installation and preserve enclosure space. The compact form factor reduces cabinet depth requirements and eases conductor routing, cutting installation time and labor costs. Application: retrofit into existing panelboards and new construction where space is at a premium. UL 67 listing and NEMA compliance provide regulatory assurance and safer operation in harsh or damp environments. Compliance minimizes inspection hurdles and supports downstream certifications, helping to meet facility standards. Always verify local code adoption and ensure compatible enclosure ratings. Pow-R-Xpress series compatibility and access to quick selector references streamline configuration and reduce BOM errors. This accelerates commissioning and lowers project risk, especially for retrofit projects or multi-panel deployments. Application: panelboard design and distribution across industrial facilities that use Eaton's ecosystem. Dedicated to field installers and maintenance teams, the kit minimizes downtime through straightforward wiring and documented installation steps in Eaton guides. Real-world benefits include faster startups, fewer field calls, and an improved total cost of ownership.

FAQs
The BKG2G175H is designed for the Eaton Pow-R-Xpress family and supports three‑phase 480V systems up to 175A. It fits Eaton Pow-R-Xpress panelboards and compatible enclosures that accept a 6x4x3 in main breaker kit. When planning retrofit or new builds, confirm catalog references and enclosure ratings to ensure full compatibility.
Key ratings include 175A continuous operating current, 480V maximum, and 35KAIC interrupting capacity. The kit is UL 67 listed and NEMA compliant, designed for three‑phase systems and motor/distribution protection. Always coordinate with upstream protection and conductor sizing per NEC guidance for optimum protection.
Yes. The BKG2G175H targets industrial and commercial facilities using Pow-R-Xpress panelboards, supporting high‑demand motor loads and compact panel layouts. It is well-suited for manufacturing plants, process lines, and distribution panels that utilize 480V three‑phase services with a need for fast commissioning.
The kit carries UL 67 certification and is NEMA compliant, which aligns with common enclosure and safety requirements in industrial settings. These certifications help streamline inspections and regulatory approvals. Always verify local codes and ensure the enclosure and components are rated accordingly.
Using the Pow-R-Xpress kit reduces sourcing complexity within Eaton’s ecosystem, shortening project timelines and minimizing part-number mismatches. Its compact form factor lowers enclosure changes, and the UL 67/NEMA compliance reduces risk and maintenance calls, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership over the system lifecycle.
