Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
Sprinkler-proof plug-in design minimizes water ingress risk in sprinkler-enabled zones while preserving fast, field-replaceable protection. This improves reliability during maintenance windows and reduces exposure to leak-induced trips. It is well-suited for busway systems in factories and distribution centers where sprinkler systems are active. Three-pole F-frame construction provides balanced protection across all phases, supporting precise coordination for motor loads and feeders while simplifying panel layout in compact electrical rooms. The unit delivers 60 A with high fault-current capability—100 kAIC at 240 Vac and 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, plus 25 kAIC at 600 Vac—ensuring fast, clean trips during short-circuits and protecting sensitive equipment. Compliance with NEMA, ANSI UL 857, CSA and IEEE standards reduces procurement risk and accelerates approvals for regulated facilities. Grounding options of 50% integral/housing simplify installation and reduce wiring complexity in busway assemblies. With its compact footprint and plug-in design, the P3BHFD3060SP enables straightforward replacements and upgrades in existing busway runs, delivering reliable protection without extensive rework. The combination of these features supports uptime, safety, and cost efficiency in industrial power distribution projects.

FAQs
Install the plug-in unit by aligning it with a compatible Pow-R-Way III busway section and seating it securely in the three-pole frame. Use the 50% integral grounding scheme and follow NEMA-compliant mounting guidelines. Verify conductor sizing and torque values, ensure proper busbar clearance, and perform a function check to confirm correct tripping coordination and protection coverage.
This unit is rated for 60 A continuous operation with high fault current capability: 100 kAIC at both 240 Vac and 480 Vac, and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac. It uses a three-pole F-frame design for balanced protection and is intended for sprinkler-protected busway installations, delivering reliable protection for motors and feeders in demanding environments.
Yes. The product is specifically described as sprinkler-proof, making it well-suited for installations within sprinkler zones along busway systems. It combines three-pole protection with robust grounding and standards compliance (NEMA, UL 857, CSA, IEEE), helping maintain uptime in safety-critical facilities such as manufacturing plants and distribution centers.
The unit carries ANSI UL 857, CSA certification, and IEEE certification, along with NEMA compliance. These marks demonstrate adherence to recognized safety and performance benchmarks, simplifying procurement, reducing regulatory risk, and ensuring reliable operation in regulated industrial settings where equipment performance and safety are mandatory.
Choosing the Pow-R-Way III unit supports longer uptime due to high interrupt ratings and sprinkler-proof protection, reducing nuisance trips and maintenance costs. Its plug-in design eases installation and replacement, while warranty terms—one year from installation or 18 months from shipment—provide assurance and help lower total cost of ownership for busway-based power distribution.
