Bussmann PDBFS220 IP-20 Finger-Safe Power Distribution Block, 175A

Bussmann PDBFS220 IP-20 Finger-Safe Power Distribution Block, 175A

The Bussmann PDBFS220 is part of the Eaton Bussmann series PDBFS power distribution block line, engineered to deliver reliable, code-compliant power distribution in panel and control-enclosure applications. This IP-20 finger-safe block is rated 600 Vac / 600 Vdc at 175A, mounts directly to standard DIN rail, and carries a short-circuit current rating (SCCR) of 200 kA for 12 to 4 AWG conductors and 100 kA for 14 to 4 AWG conductors. It's built for electricians and panel builders who need a compact, touch-safe distribution point that stands up to demanding fault-current conditions.

Key Features

• Conductor Range: Accepts 12 to 4 AWG conductors at a 200 kA SCCR, and 14 to 4 AWG conductors at a 100 kA SCCR, giving installers flexibility across wire gauges without sacrificing fault-current protection.
• IP-20 Finger-Safe Design: Touch-safe terminal construction helps protect personnel from accidental contact with live parts during installation and maintenance.
• Electrical Rating: Rated 600 Vac and 600 Vdc at 175A, suitable for demanding power distribution requirements in industrial and commercial systems.
• DIN Rail Mounting: Snaps onto standard DIN rail for fast, standardized installation inside panels and enclosures, simplifying layout and maintenance.
• High Short-Circuit Current Rating: SCCR of 200 kA (12 to 4 AWG) and 100 kA (14 to 4 AWG) supports use in systems with elevated available fault current.
• Power Distribution Block Function: Provides a centralized, space-saving point to split a single incoming feed into multiple branch circuits within a control panel or enclosure.
