FAQs
The P3BFD3015GN is a three-pole plug-in unit designed for Pow-R-Way III busway installations. It features an FD frame, 100% Neutral, and 50% Internal Ground to ensure balanced protection and safe grounding within modular busway panels. With dimensions of 12.36 in L, 21.2 in H, and 5.43 in W, it fits standard enclosures and enables straightforward field retrofit and expansion.
The unit provides 65 kAIC at 240 Vac, 25 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 18 kAIC at 600 Vac. These ratings specify the maximum fault current the breaker can interrupt safely, protecting downstream equipment and reducing the potential for cascading failures in high-current industrial environments such as manufacturing and process facilities.
Yes. The P3BFD3015GN supports busway-fed power distribution with a compact, modular design ideal for data centers and manufacturing floors. Its three-pole protection, 15A rating, and high interrupt capabilities align with common feeder circuits. IEEE/CSA/ANSI/UL 857 certifications and NEMA compliance further support reliable operation and ongoing maintenance in critical spaces.
The unit carries IEEE Certified, CSA Certified, ANSI, and UL 857 certifications, along with NEMA compliance. These standards ensure performance under fault conditions, material and installation integrity, and regulatory alignment for busway systems. The Eaton policy warranty (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) adds coverage to support ongoing maintenance and procurement confidence.
Eaton provides a warranty under policy 25-000: one year from the date of installation or 18 months from shipment, whichever occurs first. Maintenance recommendations include regular visual checks of connections and grounding, periodic breaker testing, and keeping spare parts or modules on hand for quick replacement. Local service support and access to Eaton’s technical resources help minimize downtime.
