Ferraz Shawmut MPDB69122 Power Distribution Block 1000V 500A

Product Description

The FERRAZ SHAWMUT MPDB69122 is an open-style power distribution block rated for 1000 volts and 500 amps, designed for high-capacity electrical distribution applications. Built from tin-plated aluminum, this 2-pole block delivers reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance in demanding environments. It features a 620A continuous current capacity and accepts wire ranges from 350 kcmil down to No. 6 AWG on both the line and load sides. Electricians and electrical contractors install this block in panel boards, motor control centers, and industrial distribution equipment where organized, code-compliant termination of large-gauge conductors is required.

This distribution block is suited for commercial and industrial electrical installations where multiple branch circuits must be fed from a single source connection. The open-style construction allows for visual inspection of terminations and easier access during installation and maintenance. The box-to-box configuration supports direct mounting within enclosures, making it a practical solution for switchgear and panel assembly work. Its UL 1953 listing confirms it meets the standard requirements for power distribution blocks used in North American electrical systems.
