Eaton P3BHFD3030G Pow-R-Way III Plug-In - UL857
Part Number: P3BHFD3030G
Quick Summary
The Eaton Pow-R-Way III circuit breaker plug-in unit protects busway-based power distribution with fast, reliable interruption. Engineers often struggle to balance compact form-factor, high interrupt ratings, and regulatory compliance across multi-volt busways. This model meets CSA, ANSI/IEEE, and UL 857 requirements while maintaining NEMA compatibility, giving teams confidence in safety and performance. Designed for quick installation and scalable protection, it supports three-pole configurations, 30A protection, and 100 kAIC at common industrial voltages—delivering reliable protection with minimal footprint. In practice, that translates to reduced downtime, lower wiring complexity, and a clearer path to future capacity expansion.

Three-pole F-frame plug-in design delivers targeted protection for busway circuits while fitting standard panel layouts. This configuration supports 30A operation and high interrupt ratings—100 kAIC at 240 Vac and 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, with 25 kAIC at 600 Vac—ensuring fast fault clearance in demanding environments. Use in manufacturing lines and material handling systems improves reliability and protects downstream equipment. 50% internal grounding provides a controlled fault path, enhancing safety and simplifying wiring. The internal ground strategy reduces external connections, speeds commissioning, and improves diagnostic clarity in busway installations. Plug-in design streamlines installation and replacement in busy facilities, with a compact depth and 25 lb weight that eases crane-free handling and minimizes downtime during maintenance. Compatibility with Pow-R-Way III busway systems helps standardize protection across zones. Certifications to CSA, ANSI/IEEE, UL 857, and NEMA compliance provide regulatory assurance across regions. A one-year warranty from installation or eighteen months from shipment supports lifecycle cost management and predictable maintenance planning.

FAQs
Plan for a three-pole plug-in installation within standard Pow-R-Way busway enclosures. Confirm busway ratings, ensure the mounting footprint fits the 12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, and 5.43 in width, and accommodate the 25 lb unit weight for safe handling. Use the 50% internal grounding scheme and provide space for minimal external wiring to speed commissioning.
The device is a three-pole, F-frame plug-in unit rated for 30A. It delivers interrupt ratings of 100 kAIC at 240 Vac and 480 Vac, and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac. This combination supports fast fault clearance on busway feeders and aligns with common industrial voltages, complemented by 50% internal grounding for a robust fault path.
Yes. The P3BHFD3030G is specifically designed as a three-pole, plug-in unit for Pow-R-Way busway protection. Its 30A rating, 100 kAIC at 240/480 Vac, and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac provide strong protection for high-energy loads typical in manufacturing and process facilities. The plug-in design also supports quick upgrades without extensive rewiring.
It carries NEMA compliance and certifications from CSA, ANSI, IEEE, and UL 857, ensuring regulatory alignment for industrial facilities. These certifications support safe operation across North American codes, assist with vendor qualification, and provide documented quality for procurement teams. The unit is designed to integrate smoothly with busway systems while maintaining compliance.
The unit reduces maintenance time through its plug-in design, allowing quick replacements and minimizing downtime. The 50% internal grounding simplifies wiring and diagnostics, while the 25 lb weight eases handling during service. Plus, Eaton’s warranty—one year from install or 18 months from shipment—provides predictable lifecycle support and helps improve total cost of ownership.
