3-Pole protection for high-current feeders is essential in Pow-R-Way III busway systems. The P3BEDH3150N is rated at 150A with a 100 kAIC interrupt rating at 240 VAC, delivering fast, reliable fault clearance. This combination minimizes arc flash exposure for workers and reduces unplanned downtime by isolating faults before they spread. In data centers, manufacturing lines, and other large facilities, that level of protection translates to improved uptime, safer operation, and predictable maintenance windows. The 3-Pole plug-in design with 100% neutral and the EDH frame ensures balanced load currents and precise trip performance across all poles. This accuracy reduces nuisance trips on sensitive equipment and helps protect drives and motors from voltage imbalances. The plug-in unit format also enables rapid replacement and modular expansion within Pow-R-Way III busways, eliminating extended downtime during upgrades and simplifying field service with readily available Eaton spare parts. Grounding options are 50% integral/housing, reducing the need for extra conductors and simplifying enclosure design. The EDH frame type supports Eaton's engineering ecosystem, ensuring compatibility with other Pow-R-Way III components and factory-tested performance. This reduces engineering verification effort and helps you meet your plant's grounding requirements without compromising safety or protection coordination across feeders and subfeeders. Compliance and standards coverage give procurement teams confidence. The unit carries IEEE and CSA certifications, along with ANSI and UL 857 listings, and is NEMA compliant. This ensures regulatory alignment for facilities across sectors, supports clean documentation for audits, and simplifies vendor qualification. Real-world projects benefit from documented performance in Eaton datasheets and multimedia resources that illustrate installation, testing, and long-term reliability. Physical footprint and plug-in convenience also streamline deployment. With dimensions of 12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, and 5.43 in width, and a 25 lb weight, the P3BEDH3150N fits compactly into Pow-R-Way III enclosures. The plug-in approach reduces field labor, speeds commissioning, and supports straightforward retrofits or expansions without major enclosure redesigns.

FAQs
Install the P3BEDH3150N by locating it in a Pow-R-Way III busway section designed for plug-in circuit breakers, verifying the 3-Pole configuration and 150 A rating. Slide the unit into the appropriate EDH frame slot, ensure the 100% neutral connection is intact, and secure mounting per Eaton installation guidelines. Use proper torque and perform a functional test before energizing.
The unit provides a 100 kAIC interrupt rating at 240 VAC. This rating defines the maximum fault current the breaker can interrupt without damage, which informs coordination with upstream devices and ensures selective tripping. Properly matching fault current levels reduces downtime, protects equipment, and minimizes arc energy exposure during faults.
Yes. The P3BEDH3150N carries IEEE Certified, CSA Certified, ANSI, and UL 857 listings, and is NEMA compliant. These certifications support regulatory alignment, improve QA outcomes, and simplify audits. Refer to the Eaton specification sheet for detailed mapping to your local codes and standards.
The unit measures 12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, and 5.43 in width, weighing 25 lb. This compact footprint fits standard Pow-R-Way III enclosures and simplifies space planning. Accurate sizing helps avoid enclosure crowding, ensures adequate cooling, and supports safe maintenance clearances during service.
Grounding options are 50% integral/housing, with 100% neutral across all poles, reducing extra grounding hardware. The plug-in, modular design enables field replacement without extensive rewiring, and compatible spare parts are available through Eaton’s network, minimizing downtime during maintenance or upgrades.
