B-LINE P3BFDC3020G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line P3BFDC3020G plug-in unit fit any busway, or only Pow-R-Way III?
It is a Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit. The bus stabs and housing are built for the Pow-R-Way III busway run, so it plugs onto that system, not onto another manufacturer's bus duct or an earlier Pow-R-Way generation. If your run is Pow-R-Way III with a 50% internal ground, this matches it.
2) What is the interrupting rating on this 20 amp B-Line busway plug-in breaker?
It is rated 200 kAIC at 240 Vac, 100 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 35 kAIC at 600 Vac. That is the number your engineer checks against the available fault current at the tap point, so on a 480 Vac distribution run you have 100 kA of interrupting capacity behind a 20 amp, 3-pole tap.
3) Does the ground bar on my busway need to match this plug-in unit?
Yes. This unit is built with a 50% internal ground. If your Pow-R-Way III run was ordered with a different grounding arrangement, such as a full-capacity or an external ground bar, the unit will not land correctly on the run. Confirm the grounding option on the busway nameplate before ordering.
4) Can I use this 20 amp plug-in unit on a 600 volt busway run?
Yes, it carries a rating at 600 Vac, with 35 kAIC of interrupting capacity at that voltage. At 480 Vac it goes to 100 kAIC and at 240 Vac to 200 kAIC. Match the rating to the available fault current at your tap location.
5) What does FDC frame type mean on this B-Line plug-in unit?
FDC is the Eaton molded case breaker frame installed inside the plug-in unit, catalogued here as frame F. The frame decides the physical breaker size and the interrupting class, while the 20 amp trip decides what the circuit is protecting. If a drawing calls out an FDC frame breaker at 20 amps, 3-pole, P3BFDC3020G is that combination.
6) How heavy is a Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit and do I need two people to hang it?
25 pounds, measuring 21.2 by 12.36 by 5.43 inches. That is a one-man lift at ground level, but hanging it overhead on an elevated bus run is a two-person job with a lift or platform, since the unit has to be held square to the bus opening while the stabs engage.
7) What exact part number do I order for a 20 amp, 3-pole FDC plug-in unit for Pow-R-Way III?
P3BFDC3020G. The suffix G carries the 50% internal ground. It is a single configuration, so there are no finish or trim options to specify with it.
8) Does this plug-in unit meet NEMA standards for a spec job?
It is NEMA compliant and IEEE certified, which is usually what a submittal package for busway tap equipment asks for on an institutional or industrial project.
