Special features
Sprinkler-proof plug-in
The P3BFDC3150GNSP is designed as a three-pole, F-frame circuit breaker in a Sprinkler-proof plug-in configuration for busway systems. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 150A amperage rating supports mid-to-high load feeders, reducing the need for oversized panels and enabling tighter layouts in industrial facilities. This translates to cost savings on hardware and installation time, particularly in confined spaces where busway runs are common. The unit’s high interrupt ratings—200 kAIC at 240 Vac, 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 35 kAIC at 600 Vac—offer robust fault protection, minimizing downtime and equipment damage in critical manufacturing lines. Such performance is essential for facilities with high fault-current potential and dense busway configurations, ensuring reliable startup and continuous operation. The 100% Neutral with 50% Internal Ground enhances fault detection and safe neutral distribution, improving system stability during transients and faults. Its sprinkler-proof plug-in design simplifies maintenance and testing in hazardous environments, reducing service time and exposure. Compact dimensions (12.36 in L x 21.2 in H x 5.43 in W) and a 25 lb weight support easy field install and swap-outs in crowded electrical rooms, enabling quicker retrofits and scalable protection for growing busway networks. The unit’s compatibility with Eaton busway systems and NEMA-compliant construction provides a cohesive protection strategy for modern facilities, while the warranty and certifications reinforce long-term value and compliance confidence.
