Eaton Specification Sheet - PRL1X1225X42C
Feature: Amperage rating and circuit density. The PRL1X1225X42C is rated for 225 A with 42 circuits, enabling substantial loads within a single interior panelboard. This high-density configuration reduces the number of enclosures required on a production line and streamlines wiring diagrams, resulting in faster commissioning and lower installation labor. Applications include industrial control panels, packaging lines, and automated manufacturing cells where space and reliability matter. Feature: Copper bus and low-resistance path. With copper bus material, the panelboard delivers superior conductivity and mechanical durability. The 42-circuit copper bus configuration minimizes voltage drop and improves thermal performance under heavy switching, supporting longer service life in demanding environments. This translates to fewer maintenance cycles and predictable performance for critical loads such as drives, motors, and PLC I/O cabinets. Feature: Physical footprint and enclosure dimensions. The unit measures 49 in L, 6 in H, and 15 in W, providing a compact footprint suitable for tight control rooms and cabinet spaces. The interior design supports straightforward mounting and field wiring, accelerating setup. When upgrading legacy panels, this size balance can simplify retrofits and reduce structural changes. Feature: Certifications and compliance. UL 67 certification and NEMA compliance ensure the PRL1X1225X42C meets essential safety and performance standards for power distribution in commercial and industrial settings. These certifications help speed regulatory approvals, reduce the risk of non-compliance fines, and provide a solid baseline for audits and maintenance planning. Feature: Installation compatibility and program support. As an interior PRL1X series panelboard, it aligns with Eaton's Pow-R-Xpress stocking program, supporting availability and rapid procurement for project deadlines. It integrates with standard 120/240 V single-phase service, 1-phase 3-wire configurations, enabling straightforward field wiring, plug-and-play compatibility with common feeders, and scalable upgrades as loads grow.

FAQs
Proper installation follows standard electrical enclosure guidelines for interior panelboards. Maintain clearances around the front and sides for door access and wiring, ensure adequate ventilation, and follow local codes for mounting, wiring, and circuit labeling. The unit’s dimensions (49 in L, 6 in H, 15 in W) help planners assess fit within existing cabinets and enclosures.
Key specs include 225 A amperage rating, 42 circuits, 120/240 V single-phase service, copper bus material, and UL 67 certification with NEMA compliance. These specs support high-load distribution in industrial panels while ensuring safety and reliability for drives, motors, and PLC I/O systems.
Yes. Its 225 A capacity and 42-circuit density are well-suited for machine control panels, robotics stations, and automated lines. The copper bus minimizes resistance, and the interior design simplifies wiring, labeling, and future upgrades, reducing downtime during line changes or new equipment installations.
UL 67 certification ensures compliance with safety and performance standards for panelboard assemblies, while NEMA compliance confirms suitability for typical industrial environments. These certifications streamline regulatory approvals, support audits, and reduce risk during installation and ongoing maintenance.
The high-density 42-circuit configuration reduces the number of enclosures needed, cutting hardware, wiring, and space costs. Faster commissioning, simplified maintenance, and easier future expansion translate to lower total installation and life-cycle costs, delivering measurable savings over a traditional, larger panel setup.
