Eaton / Westinghouse FDPW325R - 25A, 240V, 3-Pole Panelboard Switch / Switchboard Unit | AmpState

The Eaton / Westinghouse FDPW325R is a compact, highly practical 3-pole fusible panelboard switch engineered for dependable control within lighting and distribution panelboards. With 25 A at 240 V and a true three-pole design, it brings together switching and overcurrent protection in a single, space-saving assembly—making panel design faster and more reliable for three-phase systems.

• Integrated protection and switching: a single component that both interrupts load and provides fusible protection when paired with the correct upstream protection and fuse class, reducing wiring complexity and potential errors.
• Three-phase, 240 V operation: specifically designed to manage 3-pole, 3-phase circuits, ensuring balanced load control and straightforward integration into commercial or industrial panels.
• Compact, panel-friendly design: consolidates protection and switching in one unit, helping you fit cleanly inside lighting and distribution panelboards without clutter.
• FDP family reliability: part of the trusted FDP line from Eaton / Cutler-Hammer, known for robust performance in panelboard environments and long-term operating confidence.
• Tailored protection: compatibility with upstream protection and fuse classes lets you tailor overcurrent protection to match exact circuit requirements and safety standards.

Why this matters in real-world setups: when servicing three-phase equipment, you need fast, safe isolation and dependable protection without creating a tangle of separate devices. The FDPW325R lets technicians shut off all three phases in one action, reduces install time, and minimizes the number of components that can fail or be miswired—crucial for downtime-sensitive environments like maintenance windows, manufacturing lines, and large lighting installations.

Ideal applications: - Lighting and distribution panelboards in commercial buildings that require a compact, integrated solution for three-phase loads - Industrial distribution panels where reliable 3-pole switching and protection are essential - Retrofit or panel upgrade projects that benefit from consolidating protection and switching into a single module

Installation and compatibility notes: - Use inside compatible panel enclosures and pair with the appropriate upstream protection and fuse class to achieve the desired overcurrent protection - Verify mounting, enclosure compatibility, and adherence to local electrical codes per the panel manufacturer’s guidelines

Key specifications: - Amperage: 25 A - Voltage: 240 V - Poles: 3 - Series: FDP - Manufacturer: Eaton / Cutler-Hammer - Part Number: FDPW325R

Designed for electricians and facilities operators who value a streamlined, reliable method to switch and protect three-phase loads in a single, integrated unit, the FDPW325R offers precise compatibility with 3-phase panelboard designs and the flexibility to tailor protection to your exact electrical distribution needs.
