Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 3-pole, 10A amperage rating provides precise protection for individual circuits, reducing nuisance trips and extending equipment life in demanding manufacturing lines. This translates to lower maintenance costs and improved line uptime for automated processes, especially in Pow-R-Way III busway layouts where plug-in units must respond quickly during faults. Feature → Business Impact → Application: An 18 kAIC interrupt rating at 240 VAC (and 14 kAIC at 480 VAC) delivers robust short-circuit protection in high fault-current environments, enabling safer start-ups and preventing collateral damage to downstream components across assembly lines and process plants. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 100% neutral configuration ensures balanced loads and reliable tripping behavior, simplifying panel design and preventing neutral-related faults in complex busway configurations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The grounding option of 50% integral/housing reduces installation time and enhances safety by providing a straightforward, compliant grounding path in confined panel spaces common to industrial facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The EHD frame and compact footprint fit standard Pow-R-Way III assemblies while maintaining compatibility with existing Eaton accessories, lowering retrofit risk and simplifying procurement for OEMs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Broad certification coverage (IEEE, CSA, ANSI, UL 857) minimizes compliance risk for regulated environments, supporting QA and safety programs as plants scale their automation initiatives. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Documented dimensions and weight (12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, 5.43 in width, 25 lb) enable precise panel planning and field installation, reducing site surprises and expediting commissioning in new builds or expansions.
