Product details

The Schneider Electric ENW24281 is a 4-pole EasyPact NW switch disconnector rated for 2000 A in AC-23A duty at 690 V AC, 50/60 Hz. The drawout mounting lets you rack the unit out for maintenance without disturbing the main bus connections, which saves panel access time on a 2000 A line.

Rated operational current of 2000 A in AC-23A at 690 V sets the continuous load it can carry and the motor-switching capability — not a resistive-only rating. Short-time withstand current of 66 kA for 1 s tells you the bus and contacts can survive a fault of that magnitude until an upstream breaker clears it, which is the coordination figure the panel designer needs. The short-circuit making capacity of 143 kA peak confirms it can close onto a fault without welding contacts — critical for a switch disconnector that may be used as a load-break device.

This is a drawout switch disconnector for distribution panels — the 556 mm width and 439 mm height fit standard EasyPact NW cubicle cutouts. Rear connection with vertical or horizontal orientation and a 115 mm connection pitch without spreader means the bus bars land on fixed terminals behind the unit. The right-side neutral position is fixed, so verify your panel's neutral bus alignment before cutting the gland plate. IP40 is basic finger protection — fine inside a closed switchboard, not for washdown areas.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to ENW24281 in the EasyPact NW family?

The ENW24281 is a 2000 A, 4-pole, drawout, right-neutral variant. The closest sibling would be the same frame with a different breaking capacity code or left-neutral position — the physical footprint and connection pitch are shared across the EasyPact NW H-range drawout units, so a panel cutout designed for this unit accepts the others in the same rating class. The deciding factor is the neutral position and the breaking capacity code (HA on this unit).

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for ENW24281?

The ENW24281 is designed and tested to IEC 60947-3 for switch-disconnectors, including isolation suitability. The standard declaration of conformity and CE marking apply. For specific RoHS, REACH, or UL documentation, request the compliance package with your RFQ.
