Product details

The Schneider Electric EVS20H3NW5A is a 3-pole drawout circuit breaker from the EasyPact EVS range, rated 2000 A at 40 °C and carrying a 65 kA Icu breaking capacity at 440 V AC 50/60 Hz per IEC 60947-2.

Durability and compliance

Mechanical durability is rated at 20,000 cycles with maintenance and 10,000 without, per IEC 60947-2. Electrical durability for Category B duty is 5,000 cycles at 440/690 V without maintenance. Pollution degree 4 per IEC 60664-1 means it's rated for harsh indoor environments with conductive pollution — typical for industrial switchgear rooms near process areas.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of EVS20H3NW5A?
