60A amperage rating provides precise overload protection for busway feeders without unnecessary nuisance trips. This translates to improved uptime and reduced risk of downstream equipment damage, making it ideal for mid-range, three-pole busway circuits in manufacturing facilities seeking modular protection and scalable expansion. The 100 kAIC interrupt rating at 240/480 VAC and 25 kAIC at 600 VAC delivers high fault-current withstand, enhancing safety margins and protecting upstream equipment in high-inertia loads and short-circuit scenarios. Neutral options of 100% and grounding with 50% integral or housing ground ensure robust fault management and stable multiwire distribution, reducing leakage paths and improving protection accuracy across critical feeders. Three-pole configuration in the compact F-frame plug-in unit simplifies installation, reduces control wiring, and optimizes space in crowded switchgear environments, supporting faster changeouts and modular upgrades. Compliance and reliability are reinforced by NEMA conformance and certifications to UL 857, ANSI/IEEE, and CSA, which simplify procurement and cross-product compatibility. Dimensions and weight—12.36 in long, 21.2 in high, 5.43 in wide, and 25 lb—facilitate precise space planning and easier retrofit into existing busway layouts. Warranty terms include one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever comes first, lowering risk and providing a clear baseline for maintenance planning.

FAQs
Installation begins with verifying busway compatibility and ensuring proper panel enclosure clearance. The plug-in design facilitates quick insertion into the busway segment, followed by secure mounting, neutral connections, and grounding as specified (100% neutral, 50% integral/housing ground). Use the manufacturer’s Eaton specification sheet as a guide for torque settings and alignment, and confirm UL 857/CSA compatibility to maintain compliance and warranty validity.
Key ratings include a 60A amperage rating, 100 kAIC interrupt rating at 240/480 VAC, and 25 kAIC at 600 VAC. It supports 100% neutral and 50% integral or housing grounding, with a three-pole configuration. These specs enable reliable fault isolation and protection for typical three-phase busway feeders in industrial environments.
Yes. The P3BHFD3060N is designed as a plug-in unit within the Pow-R-Way III family, offering interchangeability and streamlined integration with compatible busway systems. Its standard three-pole F-frame design and grounding options support cohesive system protection across modular Eaton installations.
The unit is UL 857, ANSI/IEEE, and CSA certified, with NEMA compliance. These certifications validate safety, performance under fault conditions, and regulatory acceptance, reducing procurement risk and facilitating code-compliant installations in industrial facilities.
ROI benefits come from reduced downtime due to reliable fault isolation, faster replacement with plug-in modularity, and lower lifecycle costs thanks to standardized protection and simplified maintenance. Coupled with high interrupt ratings and compliance, the P3BHFD3060N helps optimize uptime and protect valuable motor loads in busway distribution networks.
