Eaton PDB370-1 Power Distribution Block - IP-20 Finger-safe
Part Number: PDB370-1
Quick Summary
Eaton PDB370-1 power distribution block provides safe, single-pole power distribution for industrial panels. Engineers often contend with finger-safe enclosures and the challenge of meeting high SCCR in compact control cabinets. It delivers IP-20 finger-safe protection, RoHS compliance, and a short-circuit rating up to 200 kAIC, supporting demanding electrical architectures. With a panel-mount footprint and tin-plated aluminum connectors, wiring is quicker and more reliable, reducing install time and field maintenance. This combination translates to lower total cost of ownership while maintaining safety, compliance, and performance in machinery and process automation.

Eaton Specification Sheet - PDB370-1
The IP-20 Finger-safe enclosure mitigates personal injury risk while enabling safer panel wiring in compact spaces, improving operator safety and regulatory compliance in panel design. The 600 Vac / 600 Vdc voltage rating supports versatile power distribution across DC controls and AC systems, enabling designers to consolidate power rails without rework. The SCCR up to 200 kAIC (#6-2 AWG) and 100 kAIC (#14-2 AWG) delivers robust short-circuit protection for high-current machinery, reducing the need for downstream protection devices and improving system reliability. Tin-plated aluminum connectors resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance in harsh environments, extending service intervals and cutting maintenance costs. With a 310 A amperage rating in a compact footprint, the PDB370-1 optimizes panel real estate, freeing space for control components and reducing enclosure costs. The panel-mount design (4 in x 3.22 in x 1.75 in) simplifies installation and wiring harness integration, while RoHS compliance supports regulatory acceptance in global markets. Overall, the PDB370-1 is a practical, high-performance solution for panel-mounted power distribution in industrial automation, machine builders, and OEM equipment requiring dependable current sharing and quick, clean wiring.
