The P3BFDC3030GN is a 3-pole, plug-in unit built for the Eaton Pow-R-Way III busway system. This configuration enables rapid protection deployment and minimizes panel depth during installation, reducing engineering time and field labor. In industrial facilities, manufacturing lines, and data centers, it protects multi-phase feeders while preserving valuable floor space and simplifying future upgrades. A 30A amperage rating paired with 200 kAIC at 240 Vac (and 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, 35 kAIC at 600 Vac) delivers robust fault current handling for modern facilities, allowing you to optimize protection coordination and avoid over-sizing devices. Grounding options include 50% internal grounding to streamline grounding schemes and reduce external wiring, while 100% neutral options ensure balanced, stable load distribution across feeders. The device is compliant with NEMA, IEEE, CSA, ANSI, and UL 857 standards, easing regulatory audits and system acceptance across markets. Its F-frame circuit breaker with a plug-in design facilitates quick retrofits and simplified maintenance in expanding power-distribution networks. Compatibility with the Pow-R-Way III busway family enables modular upgrades, faster commissioning, and lower life-cycle costs as facility needs evolve. Industry-specific benefits include reduced downtime, improved fault isolation, and scalable protection for mission-critical processes.
