Mersen MPDB69143 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes will the Mersen MPDB69 power distribution block accept on the line and load sides?
The MPDB69143 takes 350 kcmil down to #6 on the primary (line) side and #4 down to #14 on the secondary side. Both sides use box (set-screw) connectors, with 2 openings per pole on the primary and 12 openings per pole on the secondary, so one feeder pair per phase in and up to twelve branch conductors per phase out.
2) Can I use this Mersen block on a 600V or 1000V DC solar/battery circuit?
Yes. The MPDB69 series is rated 1000 V on both AC and DC under UL, and it is listed for AC/DC service at 50/60 Hz, so it covers 480V and 600V AC three-phase gear as well as DC bus work up to 1000V.
3) What short circuit current rating does this power distribution block have, and does it need to be fused?
Standalone, the MPDB69 block is rated 10 kA. To get the full 100 kA SCCR it has to be protected by the right upstream fuse: Class CC at 30A, Class G at 60A, Class J at 600A, Class RK1 or RK5 at 600A, or Class L or Class T at 800A. If your panel schedule calls for a 100 kA SCCR, the fuse class and amp rating ahead of the block is what gets you there.
4) How much space do I need in the enclosure for this distribution block, and how does it mount?
Plan on a footprint of 7.89 in wide by 5.7 in long with 3.55 in of height, and remember it is an open-style block, so you also need bending space and clearance to live parts inside the enclosure. It attaches by direct screw mount straight to the panel or enclosure back pan. It weighs 5.4 lb, so the mounting surface needs to be solid, not a thin cover plate.
5) What is the difference between the Mersen MPDB69143 and MPDB69313?
Ampacity. The MPDB69143 is the 620A block; the MPDB69313 is rated 620A/760A. Both are 3-pole open-style blocks in the same MPDB69 family, so pick by the feeder ampacity your drawing calls for.
6) Is an open-style power distribution block allowed where the block could be touched, or do I need a covered version?
An open-style block like the MPDB69 has exposed energized connectors, so it belongs inside a panelboard, switchboard or other enclosure that provides the dead-front protection. Where the block sits in an accessible space or in a location where personnel could contact it, you want a fully insulated or cover-equipped block instead, not this one.
7) Can I land aluminum conductors in the Mersen MPDB69 block?
The connectors themselves are tin-plated aluminum with a glass-filled polycarbonate insulating body, which is standard dual-rated construction for this class of block. Confirm the CU/AL marking stamped on the connector body against the conductor you are landing, and torque to the value marked on the block.
8) Is this Mersen block UL listed and RoHS compliant for a spec job?
It is UL 1953 Listed and RoHS compliant, which is what most industrial and institutional submittals ask for on a power distribution block.
9) Can one of these blocks feed twelve branch circuits off a single feeder?
Yes, that is what it is built for. With 12 secondary openings per pole and 2 primary openings per pole, one MPDB69 block takes the incoming three-phase feeder and splits it into as many as twelve taps per phase, which is why it shows up in manufacturing plant feeds, data center distribution and multi-circuit panel work. Each tap conductor still needs its own overcurrent protection per your design.
