Product details

The EVS20H4MW6A is a 4-pole drawout circuit breaker from the EasyPact EVS range, rated 2000 A continuous at 40 °C with an electronic trip unit (EVS Trip System6A). IEC 60947-2 Category B utilisation confirms it is designed for selectivity (discrimination) with downstream breakers, so a fault on a branch clears without tripping this main breaker.

Drawout mounting and panel integration

Drawout mounting means the breaker slides in and out of a fixed cradle — no need to disconnect power cables for removal or replacement. This is standard for main breakers where uptime matters: pull the breaker for maintenance or swap without de-energising the bus. Mounting support is a rail or base plate; connection is rear with a 115 mm pitch without spreader. Vertical or horizontal connection orientation gives flexibility in cabinet layout. Dimensions: 556 mm wide × 439 mm high × 395 mm deep — verify the cubicle depth before specifying.

Protection and trip unit

The electronic trip unit provides overload (long-time), instantaneous short-circuit, short-time short-circuit, and earth-fault protection. The 20-minute thermal memory means the trip curve accounts for prior heating — important when re-energising after a fault, preventing nuisance trips on a still-hot cable. Fault indication covers internal fault, overload, short-circuit, and earth fault on the digital display. Maximum breaking time is 25 ms — fast enough to limit let-through energy for downstream equipment.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of the EVS20H4MW6A?

65 kA Icu at 220...440 V AC and 50 kA Icu at 690 V AC, both per IEC 60947-2. The 'H' in the short name EVS20H indicates the high breaking capacity code.

Where can I buy the EVS20H4MW6A and get current pricing?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent industrial-automation distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial offer.

What is the closest alternative to the EVS20H4MW6A in the EasyPact EVS family?

Within the same EasyPact EVS range, the closest peer is the equivalent frame size with a different trip unit rating or breaking capacity code. The EVS20H4MW6A uses the EVS Trip System6A electronic trip unit rated 2000 A with 'H' breaking capacity. A lower-current variant or a different trip unit type would change the protection curve and interrupting rating — verify the specific BOM requirements before substituting.
