FAQs
The P3BHFW3100JGN is designed for busway systems and uses a three-pole, F-frame plug-in arrangement. It offers 100% neutral and 50% internal grounding, enabling straightforward integration with standard Eaton busway configurations and compatible plug-in units across industrial facilities.
With 100 kAIC at 220–240 VAC, 70 kAIC at 380–415 VAC, and 14 kAIC at 660–690 VAC, the device provides substantial fault current capability across a broad voltage range. This translates to enhanced protection for motors and feeders, reduced arc damage, and greater system resilience during short-circuit events.
Yes. The unit’s three-pole plug-in design, busway compatibility, and robust interrupt ratings make it well-suited for manufacturing lines, packaging, and process facilities. Its neutral and grounding features support reliable fault return paths, while regulatory certifications simplify installation in regulated environments.
The P3BHFW3100JGN carries IEEE Certified, ANSI/CSA Certified, and UL 857 listings, along with NEMA compliance. These certifications indicate adherence to critical safety, performance, and interoperability standards, supporting regulatory approvals, purchaser confidence, and cross-market deployment.
The plug-in design reduces commissioning time and field wiring complexity, lowering labor costs during upgrades. Its high interrupt ratings improve equipment protection and reduce downtime after faults, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership and faster ROI in both new builds and retrofit projects.
