Sprinkler-proof plug-in design provides robust protection in sprinkler environments, reducing risk of accidental contact and enabling safer maintenance windows. This translates to a measurable business impact: lower incident exposure and faster equipment turnover during routine protection upgrades in large facilities that rely on busway systems. In practice, engineers install the unit in Pow-R-Way III busways to achieve reliable fault isolation for three-pole circuits, with a compact form factor that simplifies field routing and panel space planning. The 25A amperage rating delivers targeted protection for low-to-moderate load branches, while the three-pole configuration ensures balanced current sharing and predictable trip behavior in multi-phase distributions. Pairing this with the high interrupt ratings—65 kAIC at 240 VAC, 25 kAIC at 480 VAC, and 18 kAIC at 600 VAC—supports scalable protection across mixed voltage zones commonly found in data centers and manufacturing floors. A 100% Neutral and 50% integral/housing grounding option enhances fault signaling and system grounding integrity, reducing the risk of neutral overloading and ground faults in complex bus duct installations. The unit’s NEMA compliance, along with CSA UL 857 and IEEE certification, provides assurance for code-backed deployments and long-term maintenance programs. With a Sprinkler-proof design and a dedicated plug-in approach, field replacements become quicker, minimizing downtime during critical maintenance windows. The product’s dimensions—12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, and 5.43 in width—coupled with a 25 lb weight, enable straightforward handling and mounting in standard service bays, lowering installation labor time and overall project costs. Compatibility with busway infrastructure and the Pow-R-Way III design streamlines retrofits and new builds alike, helping procurement reduce SKU proliferation while maintaining consistent performance expectations across sites.

FAQs
Start by confirming busway compatibility and ensuring power is isolated. Remove the existing section, align the P3BFD3025NSP plug-in unit with the busway mating surfaces, and secure with the standard mounting hardware. Connect the three poles, verify the 100% neutral arrangement, and install the 50% integral ground as specified. Verify ratings (25A) and voltage compatibility for the intended feeders, then perform a functional test to confirm proper tripping and signaling. The compact dimensions and plug-in design minimize downtime during replacement and ensure a straightforward field retrofit.
The device is rated at 25A with three-pole operation. Interrupt ratings are 65 kAIC at 240 VAC, 25 kAIC at 480 VAC, and 18 kAIC at 600 VAC, enabling fault current protection across mixed-voltage busways. A 100% Neutral option and 50% integral/housing grounding improve fault reliability and safe operation. These ratings guide selective coordination and ensure proper protection for branch circuits within Pow-R-Way III installations in commercial and industrial facilities.
Yes, the P3BFD3025NSP features a sprinkler-proof plug-in design suited for sprinkler-protected areas. Grounding options include 50% integral/housing grounding, which streamlines grounding conductor routing and reduces the need for separate ground attachments in compact busway configurations. The 100% Neutral option ensures stable neutral distribution essential for sensitive loads and balance across three poles, improving overall protection in sprinkler zones.
This unit carries CSA Certified, UL 857, and IEEE Certified marks, plus NEMA Compliant status. These certifications support regulatory approvals for industrial power distribution, enable safer operation in code-governed facilities, and help meet project specifications that demand recognized third-party verification for electrical equipment installation and service.
The plug-in design enables faster field replacements, reducing downtime during protection upgrades or fault events, which translates to lower maintenance costs and shorter outage windows. A one-year warranty from installation (or 18 months from shipment) provides supplier-backed risk mitigation. Combined with standardization on the Pow-R-Way III platform, procurement can reduce SKU variety while maintaining consistent performance and serviceability across sites.
