FAQs
Yes. The P3BHFD3080NSP is a three-pole HFD plug-in unit designed specifically for Eaton Pow-R-Way III busway configurations. Its plug-in form factor and F-frame design (15-225 A range) ensure quick, secure mounting in compatible panels and busway sections, reducing commissioning time and minimizing field wiring complexity.
The unit provides 100 kAIC interrupt ratings at 240 Vac and 480 Vac, with a lower 25 kAIC rating at 600 Vac. This combination supports robust short-circuit protection for typical industrial feeders while maintaining safe operation across the most common distribution voltages in manufacturing environments.
Yes. The design includes a sprinkler-proof plug-in feature, which enhances protection and reliability in environments where sprinkler systems are present. This reduces concern about incidental water exposure while maintaining plug-in accessibility for maintenance and replacement tasks.
The unit carries ANSI UL 857, IEEE Certified, and CSA Certified markings and is NEMA compliant. These certifications support regulatory compliance, cross-border procurement, and consistent safety performance in critical electrical distribution applications.
The plug-in design enables rapid replacement and reduced downtime during maintenance cycles, while the high interrupt ratings and 100% neutral with optional grounding simplify fault isolation and reboot sequences. Together with modular busway compatibility, this reduces long-term maintenance costs and supports scalable expansion in growing facilities.
