Product details

The ENW24246 is a 4-pole drawout circuit breaker from the EasyPact NW range, rated 1000 A at 40 °C. For the sourcing buyer: this is the main line-side breaker for a 1000 A bus, not a feeder or branch device. Breaking capacity is 66 kA Icu at 220...440 V AC and 50 kA Icu at 690 V AC, both per IEC 60947-2. The Icu is the ultimate short-circuit capacity the breaker can interrupt once and still be functional afterward. Drawout mounting means the breaker chassis stays wired to the bus; the moving portion pulls out for inspection or swap without disturbing the cable connections. Rear connection and vertical/horizontal orientation are both supported — check your switchgear layout for the connection pitch of 115 mm without spreader.

Pollution degree 4 per IEC 60664-1 is the highest industrial severity: conductive dust or heavy condensation expected. The breaker is designed for that environment, but the enclosure around it must keep the IP40 rating intact. Ambient operating range is -5 to 60 °C; storage from -40 to 85 °C without control unit, -25 to 85 °C with control unit. Electrical durability at 440 V is 6,000 cycles without maintenance — enough for a main breaker that operates infrequently.

Frequently asked questions

What is ENW24246's breaking capacity at 440 V?

The ENW24246 has a rated ultimate breaking capacity (Icu) of 66 kA at 220...440 V AC and a service breaking capacity (Ics) of 65 kA at the same voltage range, both per IEC 60947-2.

What compliance documentation does ENW24246 carry?

The ENW24246 is certified to IEC 60947-2 and carries suitability for isolation per that standard. Pollution degree 4 per IEC 60664-1 is specified. For RoHS, REACH, or UL documentation, request the manufacturer's compliance declarations with your RFQ.
