FAQs

Yes, the BKG2M125H is designed for integration into compatible panelboards within three-phase 480V systems. It is listed for horizontal (HORZ) installation as indicated in Eaton’s Pow-R-Xpress documentation, which simplifies retrofits where space constraints and alignment with existing hardware are considerations. Ensure mounting provisions match the panel profile and that supported bus configurations align with the kit’s 125A rating.
Key specs include a 125A rated operating current, 480V system voltage, three-phase configuration, and a short-circuit rating of 65KAIC. The unit is UL 67 listed and NEMA compliant, providing regulatory assurance for industrial environments. These characteristics support reliable protection for typical manufacturing loads while enabling safer fault current control.
The kit is ideal for panelboard upgrades, new installations, and retrofit projects in manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and processing facilities that use three-phase 480V power. Its compact form and 125A rating make it suitable for control panels and distribution boards that require reliable, code-compliant protection with minimal installation footprint.
The BKG2M125H carries UL 67 certification and NEMA compliance, ensuring it meets essential electrical safety and performance standards. This combination supports compliance with regional electrical codes, reduces validation time during audits, and helps streamline installation approvals in industrial facilities.
By standardizing on the Pow-R-Xpress kit, you obtain a shared component across multiple panel builds, which lowers procurement complexity and lead times. The UL 67 listing and 65KAIC rating improve reliability under fault conditions, reducing downtime costs. The compact footprint also lowers space-related installation costs during retrofits and future expansions.
