Product details

The Schneider Electric EVS20H3MW5A is a 3-pole drawout air circuit breaker from the EasyPact EVS range, rated 2000 A at 40 °C and built to IEC 60947-2 for distribution duty.

Drawout mounting and panel integration

Drawout mounting means the breaker chassis stays wired to the bus; the moving portion pulls out for inspection or swap without disturbing the main connections. The rear connection position and 115 mm connection pitch without spreader define the bus-bar drill pattern — verify the existing switchgear footprint against the 441 mm width and 439 mm height before committing the cutout. IP40 front face keeps tools and fingers out; pollution degree 4 per IEC 60664-1 confirms it is rated for conductive-dust environments typical of industrial MCC rooms.

Category B utilisation means the breaker is intended for distribution, not direct motor starting — it handles occasional fault clearing, not daily switching of load current. Electrical durability is 5000 cycles at rated voltage without maintenance; mechanical durability is 20000 cycles with maintenance, 10000 without. The suitability-for-isolation mark per IEC 60947-2 and the contact position indicator let you use it as a visible-break disconnect for lockout-tagout — no separate isolator needed.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of the EVS20H3MW5A?

65 kA Icu at 220…440 V AC and 50 kA Icu at 690 V AC, both per IEC 60947-2. The H breaking-capacity code places it in the high-interrupting range of the EasyPact EVS family.

Where can I buy the EVS20H3MW5A?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for the EVS20H3MW5A?

The breaker is certified to IEC 60947-2 and carries suitability for isolation per that standard. Pollution degree 4 per IEC 60664-1 is documented. RoHS and REACH declarations are standard for Schneider EasyPact products — request them with the order.
