Product details

The Schneider Electric ENW24217 is a 4-pole switch disconnector from the EasyPact NW range, rated for 2000 A in AC-23A duty at 690 V AC — that's the heavy motor-switching category, covering mixed resistive and inductive loads including occasional motor starts.

The 2000 A AC-23A rating is the headline number, but the real selector for panel builders is the short-time withstand: 66 kA for 1 s or 36 kA for 3 s (Icw). That tells you the switch can ride through a downstream fault long enough for an upstream breaker to clear — critical for selectivity coordination in a distribution board. The making capacity (Icm) of 143 kA peak means it can close onto a fault without welding contacts. Rated insulation voltage is 1000 V AC, and impulse withstand is 12 kV — so it's comfortable on 690 V systems with decent surge margin.

This is a panel-mount drawout switch — it sits on a rail inside a switchboard cubicle, not a standalone enclosure. The 556 mm width and 439 mm height give you the envelope for the cradle cutout; depth is 395 mm behind the panel face. Neutral is on the left, and connections are rear-entry, horizontal or vertical.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key electrical ratings for ENW24217?

Rated operational current is 2000 A in AC-23A at 690 V AC, short-time withstand is 66 kA for 1 s, making capacity is 143 kA peak, and rated insulation voltage is 1000 V AC.

What standards does the ENW24217 comply with?

It complies with IEC 60947-3 for switch-disconnectors and IEC 60664-1 for pollution degree 4 insulation coordination.

What is the mounting style and panel cutout for ENW24217?

It is a drawout (withdrawal) switch with rear connections, 556 mm wide, 439 mm high, 395 mm deep, neutral on the left, and a connection pitch of 115 mm without spreader.
