Feature: The P3BHFD3100G employs a 3-pole, 100A design within Eaton’s HFD breaker frame to deliver balanced protection across all phases in a Pow-R-Way III busway segment. Business impact: this coordinated protection reduces nuisance trips, extends motor life, and stabilizes demand on upstream feeders, contributing to higher overall line uptime. Application: it is well suited for industrial facilities with dense busway configurations and high motor starting currents, where modular protection must align with existing Eaton infrastructure. Feature: The 50% Internal Grounding option simplifies grounding schemes by providing a built-in, partial-ground reference. Business impact: fewer field wiring runs lowers labor costs and potential wiring errors, accelerating commissioning. Application: ideal for retrofit projects and new builds that require clean grounding management in crowded electrical rooms. Feature: Plug-in unit design enables rapid maintenance and straightforward replacement of the protective device without dismantling the entire busway assembly. Business impact: reduces maintenance windows and supports live-area work practices, improving maintenance planning. Application: aligns with preventive maintenance programs in manufacturing lines and data centers where downtime costs are significant. Feature: Compliance with IEEE Certified, CSA Certified, ANSI standards, and UL 857 protects against regulatory risk and ensures interoperability. Business impact: simplifies supplier qualification and cross-compatibility with downstream components. Application: critical in regulated environments such as food processing, pharma manufacturing, and critical infrastructure where standards conformance is mandatory. Feature: Dimensional footprint and weight (12.36 in L x 21.2 in H x 5.43 in W, 25 lb) balance robustness with manageable handling. Business impact: fits into constrained enclosures, reduces shipping costs, and lowers on-site installation time. Application: ideal for retrofit projects and new installations in spaces with limited clearance around busways. Feature: High interrupt ratings—100 kAIC at 240/480 Vac and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac—provide strong fault tolerance for demanding loads. Business impact: enhances system reliability under fault conditions and supports protective coordination. Application: suited for heavy industries, metal forming, and large-motive-load feeders using Pow-R-Way III busways.
