Eaton P3BEHD3040GN Pow-R-Way III circuit breaker plug-in unit - UL 857
Part Number: P3BEHD3040GN
Quick Summary
Eaton P3BEHD3040GN Pow-R-Way III circuit breaker plug-in unit provides reliable overcurrent protection for busway systems. In demanding industrial environments, installers struggle with grounding configurations, space, and compatibility across modular busway runs. This unit meets NEMA requirements and carries IEEE, CSA, ANSI, and UL 857 certifications, enabling safer, faster commissioning. With 40A protection, 50% internal grounding and 100% neutral, it supports scalable, compliant power distribution for manufacturing lines and data centers. Its 12.36 inch depth, 21.2 inch height, and 5.43 inch width align with standard Pow-R-Way III footprints, simplifying retrofit and field installation in crowded switchgear corridors. Engineers will value the 25 lb weight for safer handling, plus the 3-pole configuration and 40A rating that match typical industrial loads and short-circuit protection needs.
