FAQs
The P3BFDC3070G is a three-pole, F-frame plug-in unit designed for Pow-R-Way III busway installations. It integrates with the modular busway architecture, supports 70A protection, and fits standard busway segments with its specified dimensions (12.36 in L, 21.2 in H, 5.43 in W). This ensures quick swaps, clean panel layouts, and straightforward field installation.
This unit provides 200 kAIC at 240 Vac, 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 35 kAIC at 600 Vac. These ratings cover common fault currents in industrial power networks and help ensure selective coordination and fast fault clearance across varying supply conditions.
Yes. The device is NEMA compliant and carries UL 857, CSA, IEEE, and ANSI certifications, ensuring conformity with widely adopted electrical safety and performance standards. This reduces regulatory risk and supports interoperability across equipment from multiple manufacturers.
Plan for a three-pole, F-frame configuration within Pow-R-Way III busway sections. The unit's dimensions and weight (12.36 in L, 21.2 in H, 5.43 in W, 25 lb) inform clearance and mounting. Internal grounding is 50%, simplifying grounding design. Ensure compatible busway components and follow UL/CSA guidelines during installation to minimize rework.
The warranty is one year from the date of installation or 18 months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This policy offers protection against manufacturing defects and provides a baseline for maintenance planning. For extended coverage or service options, consult Eaton’s Selling Policy 25-000.
