B-LINE P3BEHD3020G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What amperage and interrupting rating does the B-Line P3BEHD3020G busway plug-in unit provide?
The P3BEHD3020G is a 20 amp plug-in unit built around an E frame breaker, and it interrupts 18 kAIC at 240 Vac and 14 kAIC at 480 Vac. Match that AIC against the available fault current at the tap point on your busway run, not at the service entrance, before you commit to it.
2) Will this plug-in unit fit an Eaton Pow-R-Way III busway run?
Yes. The P3BEHD3020G is an Eaton Pow-R-Way III circuit breaker plug-in unit, so it plugs directly onto Pow-R-Way III bus duct. It is not a bolt-on panelboard breaker and will not mount in a load center or a different manufacturer's busway.
3) What grounding does the P3BEHD3020G plug-in unit use?
It is configured with 50 percent internal ground. If your busway run and the downstream feeder are specified for a full-size or external ground bar, this configuration will not match the drawing.
4) How big and how heavy is this 20A Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit, and can one person hang it?
It measures 21.2 x 12.36 x 5.43 inches and weighs 25 pounds. That is a two-hand lift on a ladder at bus height, so plan on a second person or a lift for overhead runs, and confirm you have the clearance along the busway for a body that size next to adjacent plugs.
5) Can I use this 20A unit as a spare for larger taps on the same busway run?
Only up to what the frame covers. The plug-in is fixed at 20 amps, though it uses the E frame that spans 15 to 225 A, so larger taps on the same run take a different plug-in unit from the same frame family rather than a change to this one. For MRO stock, carrying one unit per amp rating you actually feed is the way to standardize.
6) Is a busway plug-in unit the right choice, or should I run a branch panel instead?
A plug-in unit like the P3BEHD3020G taps power directly off the bus duct at the point of use, which suits shops, data halls, and machine lines where loads move. A panelboard makes more sense when circuits are fixed and centralized. Here you get a single 20A breaker tap with 18 kAIC at 240 Vac and 14 kAIC at 480 Vac behind it, so it covers one load, not a distribution board.
