FAQs
Plan for a three-pole, FD-frame breaker in Pow-R-Way III busways. Verify enclosure compatibility with the 12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, and 5.43 in width footprint, and anticipate a unit weight of about 25 lb for field handling. Ensure the busway spacing allows plug-in engagement and confirm 60A rating with 65 kAIC at 240 Vac for the protected load profile.
The unit is IEEE Certified, UL 857 listed, and CSA Certified, with NEMA compatibility. These certifications support safe integration into standard enclosures, compliant commissioning, and reliable performance across diverse industrial environments such as manufacturing facilities, data centers, and process plants.
Yes. With a 60A rating and interrupt ratings of 65 kAIC at 240 Vac, 25 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 18 kAIC at 600 Vac, this three-pole plug-in unit provides strong protection for three-phase busway systems. Its F-frame design and 50% integral grounding option support dependable operation in demanding environments.
The plug-in design enables quick replacements without extensive rewiring, reducing downtime during maintenance or upgrades. At roughly 25 lb, the unit is manageable in field conditions, and the standard warranty (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) lowers lifecycle risk. It remains compatible with Pow-R-Way III for future-proof protection upgrades.
