FAQs
The P3BFD3060G is a three-pole plug-in unit designed for direct installation into compatible Pow-R-Way III busway frames. Installation benefits include a compact footprint, straightforward alignment with busway connectors, and quick replacement without full panel disassembly. Ensure the unit is seated firmly, the grounding provision is connected, and that the interrupt ratings match the feeder fault current. Proper torque on mounting hardware and adherence to IEEE/UL wiring practices are essential for reliable performance.
Key specs include a 60A amperage rating with interrupt ratings of 65 kAIC at 240V, 25 kAIC at 480V, and 18 kAIC at 600V. It is a three-pole, F-frame breaker designed for busway applications and features 50% internal grounding. Compliance marks include IEEE Certification, ANSI, UL 857, CSA Certification, and NEMA compliance, important for regulatory acceptance and system reliability.
Yes. With a 60A rating and high interrupt capacities across multiple voltages, the P3BFD3060G is well-suited for mid-range feeders in manufacturing, processing plants, and industrial facilities using busway distribution. Its modular plug-in design reduces downtime for maintenance and upgrades, while the three-pole configuration provides robust protection for 3-phase circuits common in industrial environments.
The unit carries IEEE Certified, ANSI, UL 857, CSA Certified, and is NEMA compliant. These certifications support safety, interoperability, and regulatory compliance, simplifying supplier qualification, aiding procurement approvals, and ensuring the device meets industry standards for critical power systems in harsh industrial environments.
ROI comes from reduced downtime due to rapid plug-in replacement, standardized parts for spares, and predictable maintenance cycles. The unit’s modular design minimizes panel downtime during faults, while its compact dimensions and wiring compatibility streamline installation and future upgrades, often lowering total installed cost over the asset life in busway distributions.
