FAQs
The P3BLD3600NSP is a plug-in unit designed for seamless integration with Pow-R-Way III busways. Begin by verifying busway compatibility, confirm 600 V rating, and ensure the four-wire, three-pole configuration matches your feeder. Mount the plug-in unit into the busway enclosure, connect neutral and grounding per the 50% integral grounding option, and perform a standard commissioning sequence to verify insulation, trip curves, and coordination with upstream protection.
This unit is rated for 600 V and 600 A with interrupt ratings of 65 kAIC at 240 Vac, 35 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac. It offers 100% neutral functionality and 50% integral grounding. It is a three-pole, four-wire breaker designed for sprinkler-proof plug-in operation in busway systems, delivering reliable fault protection and coordination with upstream devices.
Yes. The model is specified as sprinkler-proof, addressing equipment protection needs in spaces with active fire suppression systems. This design reduces risk of water ingress, supports code compliance in such environments, and streamlines installation by integrating protection directly into the busway assembly without compromising safety or performance.
The P3BLD3600NSP carries IEEE Certification, CSA Certification, ANSI, and UL 857 recognition, with NEMA compliance. These certifications support regulatory acceptance, electrical safety, and reliability in industrial and commercial facilities, helping with audits, procurement approvals, and cross-site standardization.
The plug-in design reduces field wiring and simplifies commissioning, accelerating project timelines and lowering labor costs. With 600 V, high interrupt ratings, 100% neutral, and sprinkler-proof protection, you gain improved uptime and easier upgrade paths. The warranty policy (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) further reduces lifecycle risk and supports budgeting for capital projects.
