Eaton Pow-R-Xpress PDG2XG Main Breaker Kit, 480V

The Eaton Pow-R-Xpress PDG2XG Main Breaker Kit is engineered as the primary overcurrent protection and disconnect device for Pow-R-Xpress series panelboards, available with 150A and 175A amperage ratings to match a range of panelboard load requirements. Rated 480V and suitable for single- or three-phase electrical distribution systems, this kit pairs a PDG2XG type circuit breaker with a mounting design that supports both top and bottom installation orientations. Positioned at the service entrance or main feeder point of the electrical system, the kit provides the primary point of overcurrent protection ahead of downstream branch circuit breakers, and is designed to integrate cleanly with compatible Pow-R-Xpress enclosures and interiors.

Key Features

  • Amperage Rating: Available in 150A and 175A main breaker ratings to size primary overcurrent protection to the connected panelboard load.

Eaton BKG2G175 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amp ratings does the Eaton Pow-R-Xpress PDG2XG main breaker kit come in?
Two ratings: 150A (model BKG2G150) and 175A (model BKG2G175). Size the kit to the connected panelboard load, not to the panel bus alone, since this breaker is the primary overcurrent device ahead of the branch breakers.
2) Will this main breaker kit work in a 480V three-phase panelboard?
Yes. The PDG2XG main breaker kit is rated 480V and suited to single- or three-phase distribution, with a 3-phase number-of-poles configuration stated for the kit. That covers typical 480/277V commercial and industrial service and feeder panels.
3) Can I mount this main breaker at the bottom of the panel instead of the top?
Either orientation works. The kit's mounting design supports top and bottom installation, so it can go in a bottom-feed panelboard as well as a top-feed one. That matters on retrofits where the existing conduit entry is fixed and you cannot reroute feeders.
4) Is this breaker kit compatible with any panelboard, or only Eaton Pow-R-Xpress?
It is built for the Eaton Pow-R-Xpress platform and configured for the PDG2XG breaker type, so it mounts in compatible Pow-R-Xpress enclosures and interiors. It is not a universal main breaker kit; a different panelboard line needs the main breaker kit made for that line.
5) What exactly is included in a main breaker kit like this, versus buying a loose breaker?
This is a conventional main circuit breaker kit: the PDG2XG type breaker together with the mounting arrangement that lands it in the panelboard as the main device. Buying a loose breaker alone leaves you without the mounting provisions to convert or feed a main-breaker position, which is why the kit format exists for panel conversions and upgrades.
6) Which model number do I order, BKG2G150 or BKG2G175?
BKG2G150 is the 150A version and BKG2G175 is the 175A version. Both are 480V, single- or three-phase, PDG2XG type. The only difference to specify is the amp rating that matches your calculated load and feeder protection.
7) Can I use this kit to add a main breaker to an existing main-lug Pow-R-Xpress panel?
That is one of its intended uses. It is a conversion main circuit breaker kit, installed as the primary overcurrent device and disconnect ahead of the branch breakers, and Eaton lists main breaker replacement and retrofit projects plus power distribution equipment upgrades among its applications. The panel has to be a compatible Pow-R-Xpress interior for the kit to land.
8) Will a 150A or 175A PDG2XG kit serve as service entrance protection?
Yes, it is intended for the service entrance or main feeder point, giving the single point of overcurrent protection and disconnect ahead of downstream branch circuits in a 480V panelboard. Confirm the interrupting rating and service configuration required by your drawings before it goes in ahead of a service.
