Eaton UCTB302G - 225A, 600V Universal Cable Tap Box for Standard Plug-In Busway | AmpState

The Eaton UCTB302G Universal Cable Tap Box delivers a purpose-built solution for expanding power distribution on Eaton standard plug-in busways. Rated at 225 A and designed for operation up to 600 V, this tap box provides a secure lugged cable connection to the busway run, enabling fast, dependable branch taps without sacrificing conductor protection or simplicity.

Key advantages that help you optimize industrial distributions:

• High-current capability — 225 A rating supports demanding loads from motors, conveyors, and processing equipment without oversizing your installation.
• Wide voltage compatibility — 600 V rating ensures suitability for most industrial environments and typical equipment voltages seen on plug-in busways.
• Plug-and-play with Eaton busways — Universal compatibility with Eaton standard plug-in busway reduces layout complexity and speeds up deployment in existing systems.
• Robust lugged cable connection — A secure lug interface delivers dependable, serviceable connections to the busway run, easing maintenance and inspections.
• Compact, modular fit — Engineered to integrate neatly into standard busway footprints, helping you maximize space on crowded distribution runs.

Ideal use cases

• Adding a dedicated branch tap on an Eaton plug-in busway to feed a machine, workstation, or subfeed without running separate panels.
• Expanding an existing busway network in manufacturing cells, packaging lines, or process areas where quick, reliable taps are needed.
• Reconfiguring or extending power distribution in facilities that rely on modular plug-in busways, minimizing disruption and hardware counts.

Why this tap box stands out

• Specifically engineered for Eaton standard plug-in busways, offering a dependable match in performance and compatibility.
• Eliminates the need for extra junction boxes in many layouts by providing a direct, lugged connection to the busway run.
• Clear, low-probability path for future expansions—swap or add taps with predictable electrical characteristics and physical footprint.
