Special features
With LSIG
Feature: Three-pole F-frame plug-in unit with LSIG capability. Business Impact: Facilitates seamless integration with common busway assemblies and safer grounding paths, reducing field modification time. Application: Ideal for factory floor distribution panels using busway configurations. The LSIG feature simplifies wiring layouts and improves fault-clearance reliability in live environments. Feature: High interrupt ratings of 100 kAIC at 240/480 Vac (and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac). Business Impact: Enables robust protection against high fault currents, minimizing equipment damage and downtime. Application: Essential for main feeders and critical busways in manufacturing facilities. Feature: 225 A amperage rating and three-pole design. Business Impact: Supports medium-to-large distribution feeders with reliable coordination and selectivity. Application: Standard in industrial power distribution where balanced loading is required. Feature: 50% internal grounding and NEMA compliance. Business Impact: Enhances safety and regulatory alignment while simplifying installation. Application: Suitable for compliant, easy-to-maintain busway installations. Feature: Compact dimensions and manageable weight (12.36 in depth, 21.2 in height, 5.43 in width, 25 lb). Business Impact: Eases mounting, serviceability, and retrofits in crowded equipment rooms. Application: Retrofit projects and retrofit-friendly panel upgrades across plants.

FAQs
The P3BHFDE322536G is a three-pole, F-frame plug-in unit designed for standard busway distributions. Its LSIG option and 50% internal grounding simplify field wiring and grounding, reducing integration time and potential miswiring. For compatibility, verify busway pitch, mounting spacing, and insulation clearances in your panel schedule; the unit aligns with typical Eaton Pow-R-Way busway configurations.
This model provides 100 kAIC interrupt rating at 240 and 480 Vac, and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac. Use 100 kAIC where your system experiences high fault currents, such as main feeders or close-to-source protection in large industrial facilities. For routine distribution, 25 kAIC at higher voltages may suffice, but sizing must account for busway fault current and coordination with downstream devices.
Yes. The product is designed as a three-pole plug-in unit with an F-frame design, optimized for standard industrial panels and busway connections. The three-pole arrangement supports balanced phasing and improves protection coordination across phases, while maintaining compatibility with common enclosure footprints and mounting practices.
The unit is ANSI UL 857 listed, CSA Certified, and IEEE Certified. These certifications confirm regulatory compliance, safety, and interoperability with other certified components in industrial power systems. They simplify procurement, reduce the risk of non-conformance during audits, and support safer, proven installations in regulated facilities.
LSIG presence simplifies wiring and ground path management, lowering commissioning time and error rates. The plug-in design enables faster replacement of a failed breaker without extensive rewiring, reducing mean-time-to-repair (MTTR) and improving uptime. Combined, these features contribute to lower maintenance costs and a shorter path to return on investment in busy plant environments.
