B-LINE P3BFDB3050GN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What amperage and breaker frame does the B-Line P3BFDB3050GN plug-in unit use?
The P3BFDB3050GN is a 50 amp plug-in unit built on an F frame breaker, the frame that covers 15 to 225 amps. If your load calls for more than 225 amps you are out of F frame territory and need a larger frame unit.
2) What is the interrupting rating on the Pow-R-Way III 50A plug-in unit, and will it hold at 480V?
Interrupting capacity is 18 kAIC at 240 Vac and 14 kAIC at both 480 Vac and 600 Vac. So on a 480 volt busway run you are working with 14 kAIC available fault current. If your short circuit study puts available fault above that at the tap point, this unit is not the right selection.
3) Does this Eaton Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit include a neutral and ground?
It is built with a 100 percent rated neutral and 50 percent internal ground. The full-capacity neutral matters if you are feeding nonlinear loads such as lighting ballasts, VFDs or large receptacle panels, where neutral current can approach or exceed phase current.
4) Will a Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit fit any busway, or only Eaton Pow-R-Way III?
This is a Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit, and plug-in units are matched to the busway system they bolt onto. It belongs on Eaton Pow-R-Way III busway. Other manufacturers' busway uses different stab geometry and housing dimensions, so treat this as a Pow-R-Way III only device.
5) How big and how heavy is the P3BFDB3050GN plug-in unit for planning the install?
It measures 21.2 by 12.36 by 5.43 inches and weighs 25 pounds. Plan on two people or a lift for overhead busway work, and confirm you have that much clearance at the plug-in opening before you get on the ladder.
6) What exact part number do I order for a 50 amp F frame Pow-R-Way III plug-in unit?
Order B-Line P3BFDB3050GN. That single catalog number covers the 50 amp F frame breaker plug-in unit with the 100 percent neutral and 50 percent internal ground, so there are no separate suffixes to specify.
