Selenium Explicit Waits

I am trying to automate a sharepoint-based application, which can be slow at times. In the example below, I am trying to wrap the password input into an explicit wait. Currently, Selenium runs the test to fast and it results in failure to perform the actions.

How can I wrap the password portion into a selenium explicit way? 

    // Enter username
        var input_Username = Driver.Instance.FindElement(By.Id("username_input"));
        input_Username.SendKeys("admin");

        WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(Driver.Instance, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3000));


        // Enter pasword

        var input_Password = Driver.Instance.FindElement(By.Id("pw_input"));
        input_Password.SendKeys("password");

Yes, you are on the right track.

WebDriverWait instance has been created, now you just need to call it like this:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(Driver.Instance, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3000));

var input_Password = wait.Until(d=> d.FindElement(By.Id("pw_input")));
input_Password.SendKeys("password");

Please refer to C# API doc for more details. Relevant classes are under OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI Namespace, in which there is an ExpectedConditions class that would be handy.

var input_Password = wait.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementExists(By.Id("pw_input")));

Also note that your code sets the timeout to 3000 seconds, seems way too long.
