Special features
Sprinkler-proof plug-in
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 90A amperage rating alongside a three-pole F-frame and sprinkler-proof plug translates to consistent protection for busway circuits, reducing nuisance tripping and enabling predictable maintenance windows. This improves overall system reliability and simplifies spare-parts planning, making it ideal for data centers, manufacturing lines, and large facilities. | Feature → Business Impact → Application: High interrupt ratings of 200 kAIC at 240V, 100 kAIC at 480V, and 35 kAIC at 600V enhance fault tolerance, minimizing outages and extending equipment life. This supports resilience in industrial plants and commercial buildings with multiple voltage rails. | Feature → Business Impact → Application: Sprinkler-proof plug and 50% internal grounding provide safety and flexibility in environments with water exposure or specialized grounding strategies, enabling easier installation in warehouses and outdoor busway runs. | Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEMA compliance along with UL 857, CSA, IEEE, and ANSI certifications streamline procurement and audits, reducing compliance risk for global projects and intensive automation deployments. | Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact plug-in design and busway compatibility reduce field wiring and enable modular expansions, delivering lower labor costs and faster rollouts for expanding facilities. | Warranty and service: A one-year warranty from installation (or eighteen months from shipment) plus Eaton support resources justify lifecycle costs and support ongoing maintenance in critical facilities.

FAQs
The P3BFDC3090GSP is designed for sprinkler-protected, three-pole busway distributions. It integrates with Pow-R-Way III busways, offering a 90A protection level with high interrupt ratings suitable for data centers, manufacturing floors, and large facilities that rely on modular power distribution. Its sprinkler-proof design simplifies installation in challenging environments while maintaining access for testing and maintenance.
The unit provides 200 kAIC at 240V, 100 kAIC at 480V, and 35 kAIC at 600V. Higher ratings at lower voltages translate to greater fault withstand capability and reduced likelihood of nuisance clears in unrated fault conditions. This supports critical loads and minimizes downtime in mixed- voltage busway configurations common in industrial facilities.
Yes. It is UL 857 listed, CSA Certified, IEEE Certified, and ANSI compliant, with NEMA protection suitable for industrial environments. These certifications help streamline procurement, qualify for code-compliant installations, and support audits in regulated facilities such as manufacturing plants and data centers.
The combination of a sprinkler-proof plug, modular plug-in design, and high fault tolerance reduces downtime and field wiring complexity, translating to lower labor costs during installation and maintenance. The product carries a one-year warranty (or 18 months from shipment) and is supported by Eaton’s service resources, aiding lifecycle cost management in long-running automation projects.
Yes, it is designed for busway integration with Pow-R-Way III configurations. Consider mounting clarity, accessible plug-in access for testing, proper grounding strategy (50% internal grounding), and compliance with NEMA and UL guidelines. Confirm compatible busway dimensions, mounting provisions, and voltage rails to ensure a seamless upgrade or expansion in facilities upgrading their power distribution.
