FAQs

The P3BFDB3125G is a 3-pole, plug-in circuit breaker unit designed specifically for Eaton Pow-R-Way III busways. Its F frame, 50% internal grounding, and standard 12.36 in length, 21.2 in height, and 5.43 in width ensure a field-installable fit that matches the busway's connection scheme, reducing misalignment and installation risk.
Key specs include a 125 A amperage rating, 18 kAIC interrupt rating at 240 VAC, and 14 kAIC at 480/600 VAC. It is a 3-pole breaker with a ground option of 50% internal, certified to IEEE, CSA, ANSI, and UL 857 standards, and it is NEMA compliant.
Yes. With a 125 A rating and high interrupt ratings (18 kAIC @ 240 VAC, 14 kAIC @ 480/600 VAC), the P3BFDB3125G is well-suited for high-current motor feeders, heavy machinery circuits, and dense busway configurations common in manufacturing plants and data centers, all while maintaining regulatory compliance.
The unit carries IEEE Certified, CSA Certified, ANSI, UL 857, and is NEMA compliant. These certifications validate electrical safety, performance, and interoperability, simplifying procurement, speeding audits, and ensuring consistent performance across sites that require rigorous regulatory adherence.
The plug-in design minimizes hot-work and wiring during replacements, dramatically reducing downtime. Internal grounding simplifies maintenance, while the modular plug-in approach shortens spare-part cycles and supports rapid field swaps, delivering lower labor costs and faster restoration of service after faults or upgrades.
