Three-pole, 100A rating with a J-frame plug-in unit enables compact, coordinated protection for 3-phase feeders in Pow-R-Way III busway networks. This configuration supports scalable protection for mid-range circuits and reduces wiring complexity, leading to faster panel assembly and easier future expansion in manufacturing floors and distribution centers. The circuit breaker provides a robust 200 kAIC interrupt capacity at 240V, with 100 kAIC at 480V and 35 kAIC at 600V, delivering strong fault withstand and improved safety for motors and sensitive loads, while enabling tighter coordination with upstream protection. Grounding options default to 50% integral/housing, simplifying installation and reducing external hardware without compromising safety. Compliant with NEMA and certified to IEEE, CSA, ANSI, and UL 857 standards, it supports reliable operation in code-driven environments. Dimensions and weight—12.36 in depth, 23.26 in height, 6.97 in width, 47 lb—facilitate accurate space planning and shipping logistics. The plug-in unit format enhances busway compatibility, enabling rapid replacement and modular upgrades in Pow-R-Way III installations across manufacturing facilities and data-center ancillary spaces.

FAQs
The P3BJDC3100 is designed for Pow-R-Way III busway systems and other plug-in configurations in industrial power distribution. Its 3-pole, 100A rating and J-frame design support modular installations along busway feeders, enabling fast integration with existing infrastructure and scalable expansion as electrical loads grow on the manufacturing floor or distribution center.
Key ratings include 3-pole, 100A protection with an interrupt rating of 200 kAIC at 240V, 100 kAIC at 480V, and 35 kAIC at 600V. These specifications ensure safe interruption during faults, enable close coordination with upstream devices, and support reliable operation for medium-size loads and critical equipment in industrial environments.
Yes. With a 200 kAIC interrupt capacity at 240V (plus 100 kAIC at 480V and 35 kAIC at 600V), it provides robust fault clearance for busway feeders, enhancing protection for motors, drives, and other high inrush loads while maintaining system integrity and safety.
The unit carries IEEE Certified, CSA Certified, ANSI, and UL 857 certifications, along with NEMA compliance. These attestations support regulatory compliance, product reliability, and cross-site acceptance, reducing procurement risk and ensuring safe operation across global facilities.
Plug-in installation simplifies maintenance by enabling quick replacement without rewiring, reducing downtime during service events. The robust interrupt ratings and certified build minimize risk of unplanned outages, driving higher uptime and predictable total cost of ownership in ongoing power management, equipment protection, and plant reliability programs.
