Three-pole HFD plug-in design enables fast, plug-in installation on Pow-R-Way III busway frames. This architecture minimizes wiring runs and field connections, shortening commissioning time and reducing labor costs without compromising protection. Application: ideal for industrial switchgear, manufacturing facilities, and data centers where space efficiency and reliable protection are essential. High fault-current capability matters in dense electrical networks: 100 kAIC at 240/480 Vac and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac provide robust interruption for large motors and feeder circuits. Business impact: increased system availability and reduced arc-flash exposure during faults. Application: critical busway feeds in manufacturing plants and warehouses demanding fast, selective tripping. Neutral and grounding options add flexibility: 100% Neutral with 50% integral or housing grounding supports safe, code-compliant distribution and easier fault analysis. Business impact: simplifies neutral current management, improves protective coordination, and streamlines compliance efforts. Application: multi-branch busway runs and applications requiring reliable grounding strategies. Compliance and durability are foundational: IEEE Certified, UL 857, CSA, ANSI, and NEMA compliance help satisfy regulatory audits and customer specifications. Business impact: reduces supplier risk and accelerates project approvals. Application: healthcare facilities, data centers, and process industries where standards conformance is non-negotiable. Sprinkler-proof plug-in design and a compact form factor support integration into crowded installations: 12.36 in depth, 5.43 in width, and a 25 lb weight, enabling straightforward retrofits and new builds. Business impact: minimizes downtime during module replacement and lowers total installed cost. Application: facilities deploying busway-based protection across distributed power networks.

FAQs
For a seamless install, plan for the three-pole plug-in unit to mount onto compatible Pow-R-Way III busway frames and ensure proper neutral termination and grounding. Verify 100% Neutral and 50% integral or housing grounding, and follow the Eaton installation guidelines to maintain NEMA compliance and safe clearances in crowded switchgear environments.
The 100 kAIC interrupt rating at 240/480 Vac provides robust fault interruption for large feeders and motor circuits, reducing arc-flash risk and limiting damage during short circuits. At 600 Vac the rating is 25 kAIC, allowing appropriate protection across a range of industrial applications and enabling selective tripping within busway distributions.
The P3BHFD3150NSP carries IEEE Certified, UL 857, CSA Certified, and ANSI certifications, plus NEMA compliance. These validations help meet regulatory requirements, simplify customer audits, and reassure end-users in regulated environments such as data centers, healthcare facilities, and manufacturing plants.
This unit is ideal for busway-based power distribution in industrial and commercial settings, including factory floor feeders, data centers, and large motor drives. Its three-pole plug-in design and 150 A rating support scalable protection for complex busway networks while maintaining ease of maintenance and rapid replacement during outages.
The product carries a one-year warranty from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This adds predictable maintenance costs and reduces risk of unexpected repair expenses, contributing to lower total cost of ownership when combined with reduced downtime and straightforward plug-in replacements in busy facilities.
