The P3BED3030N is built as a three-pole, ED-frame circuit breaker plug-in unit, enabling fast swaps in busy busway environments with minimal downtime. The 30A rating paired with a 65 kAIC interrupt capacity delivers dependable fault protection for feeders and downstream loads, which translates into fewer unplanned outages and lower repair costs. Its 100% Neutral design simplifies neutral wiring and balancing, while the 50% Integral/Housing Ground option streamlines grounding practices in modular busway assemblies. The physical footprint—12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, and 5.43 in width—fits compact Eaton Pow-R-Way installations, reducing enclosure size and material costs. With a weight of 25 lb, installation crews can handle replacements quickly, and the product’s NEMA and UL/CSA/IEEE certifications support regulatory compliance across facilities. The unit’s warranty aligns with Eaton’s policy, reducing long-term risk for mission-critical applications. Compatibility with existing busway modules minimizes integration effort, delivering faster deployment and predictable performance in industrial environments.
