Special features
Sprinkler-proof plug-in
Sprinkler-proof plug-in design is the standout feature. It reduces environmental risk, simplifies enclosure integration, and minimizes wiring changes during retrofits. It also supports quick plug-in replacement and minimizes field wiring changes. The 100% neutral with 50% internal grounding improves circuit stability and fault management, which translates to safer operation and regulatory alignment. This is particularly beneficial in data centers, control rooms, and heavy machinery applications where neutral accuracy matters. The 65 kAIC interrupt rating at 240 VAC provides a high fault withstand, reducing panel damage and downtime during motor starts and short circuits, ideal for industrial feeders, pumps, and conveyors. The ED frame, three-pole Pow-R-Way III design enables modular, fast replacement and easy integration with existing protection schemes, lowering procurement risk. Compliance with ANSI/IEEE, CSA, UL 857, and NEMA ensures regulatory acceptance and smoother audits across regulated sectors such as food & beverage, chemical processing, and general manufacturing. The warranty—Eaton Selling Policy 25-000—supports uptime and reduces early-life maintenance costs, while the plug-in approach enhances serviceability and long-term ROI in busy plant environments.
