Why Choose the ABB EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 Protecta Power Circuit Breaker?

The ABB EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 is a high-performance 63 A three-pole moulded case circuit breaker (MCCB) designed to provide reliable overload and short-circuit protection in commercial and industrial low-voltage electrical distribution systems. Part of the ABB Protecta Power Devices range, this circuit breaker incorporates the proven ABB SACE Tmax XT2N160 platform with an Ekip LS/I electronic trip unit, delivering precise and dependable circuit protection.

Featuring a 36 kA short-circuit breaking capacity at 415 V AC, the EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 is designed to interrupt electrical faults while helping protect cables, switchgear and connected equipment. Its electronic protection system provides long-time overload protection (L) and selectable short-time (S) or instantaneous (I) short-circuit protection, supporting effective coordination within low-voltage distribution networks.

With a 63 A rated current, three-pole configuration and compact 100 mm nominal width, this MCCB is suitable for three-phase outgoing feeders, commercial distribution boards and industrial switchboards. Its electronic trip technology and compatibility with appropriately configured ABB Protecta Power distribution assemblies make it a practical choice for electrical contractors, panel builders and maintenance engineers.

Advanced Ekip LS/I Electronic Protection for Three-Phase Distribution

The ABB EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 incorporates an Ekip LS/I electronic trip unit designed to protect electrical installations against overloads and short-circuit faults. Unlike conventional thermal-magnetic protection, the electronic trip system uses electronic sensing and processing to deliver defined protective characteristics, helping engineers coordinate protection across electrical distribution networks.

The L (long-time) protection function responds to sustained excessive current, helping prevent overheating of cables and connected equipment. The S/I protection arrangement allows selection between short-time delayed short-circuit protection and instantaneous short-circuit protection. Short-time delay can assist coordination with downstream protective devices, while instantaneous protection provides rapid interruption of high fault currents.

The ABB SACE Tmax XT2N160 platform combines electronic protection with robust moulded case construction. Its three-pole configuration enables simultaneous switching of three phase conductors, making it suitable for appropriately designed commercial and industrial three-phase distribution circuits.

When installing the EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 within an ABB Protecta Power distribution board, suitable mounting components, terminal connections and protective covers must be selected. Electrical designers should verify the prospective short-circuit current, conductor ratings, electronic trip settings and protective device coordination before commissioning.

Typical Applications

  • ABB Protecta Power electrical distribution boards.
  • Commercial low-voltage power distribution systems.
  • Industrial electrical switchboards and distribution panels.
  • 63 A three-phase outgoing feeder protection.
  • Three-phase electrical equipment supply circuits.
  • Building services and mechanical plant distribution.
  • Manufacturing and industrial facility electrical infrastructure.
  • Commercial switchboards and sub-distribution assemblies.
  • Electrical panel building and switchboard manufacturing.
  • Distribution circuits requiring electronic overload and short-circuit protection.
  • Electrical installations where protective device coordination is important.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ABB EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 used for?

The ABB EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 is a 63 A three-pole moulded case circuit breaker designed to protect commercial and industrial low-voltage electrical distribution circuits against overloads and short circuits using an Ekip LS/I electronic trip unit.

What is the rated current of the EPX-XT2N-E1-0633?

The EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 has a 63 A rated current and uses the ABB SACE Tmax XT2N160 platform, which has a maximum frame rating of 160 A. The frame rating does not change the specified 63 A rating of this device.

What is the breaking capacity of this circuit breaker?

The EPX-XT2N-E1-0633 has a 36 kA rated ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity at 415 V AC. Its rated service breaking capacity at the same voltage is also 36 kA. The applicable breaking capacity must be checked against the operating voltage and prospective fault current of the installation.

What does LS/I mean on the ABB EPX-XT2N-E1-0633?

LS/I identifies an electronic protection arrangement providing L (long-time overload protection) with a choice between S (short-time delayed short-circuit protection) and I (instantaneous short-circuit protection). The S and I functions are selectable alternatives rather than simultaneous independent functions.

What is the difference between Ekip LS/I and Ekip LSI?

Ekip LS/I provides long-time overload protection with a choice between short-time delayed and instantaneous short-circuit protection. Ekip LSI provides long-time, short-time delayed and instantaneous protection functions together, offering additional flexibility for protection coordination.
