By Mohammad Afzal Siddiqui | Published: May 2026 | Last Updated: June 2026

If you are a switchgear panel builder, EPC contractor, or procurement manager looking for Schneider EasyPact NW air circuit breakers without a factory lead time, this is the page you need. Electrical Junction maintains stock of EasyPact NW1 and NW2 in Types C, N, and H at our Dubai warehouse — ready for same-day dispatch to UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and Africa.

This guide covers everything your procurement or engineering team needs: NW1 vs NW2 selection, breaking capacity types, trip unit options, fixed vs draw-out versions, MasterPact NW migration guidance, and how to get a firm quote within 2 hours.

What Is the Schneider EasyPact NW ACB?

The Schneider EasyPact NW is a next-generation air circuit breaker designed for main incomer, bus coupler, and large feeder protection in industrial and commercial switchboards. It replaces the legacy EasyPact MVS range and is built on Schneider Electric's platform of field-proven ACB technology.

Key features that make it a preferred choice for GCC and African projects:

• Breaking capacity up to 66kA — handles high fault levels in industrial zones close to large transformers
• Colour-coded health status bar — instant visual diagnostics without opening the panel, reducing maintenance downtime
• Native connectivity — built-in Modbus and optional Ethernet for BMS and SCADA integration
• Detailed event logs — records trip history, contact wear, and operational data for predictive maintenance
• IEC 60947-2 compliant — meets all GCC and Saudi SEC project specifications
• 50Hz and 60Hz compatible — suitable for both UAE (50Hz) and Saudi Arabia (60Hz) installations

EasyPact NW1 vs NW2 — Which Frame Do You Need?

The EasyPact NW range is split into two frame sizes. Selecting the wrong frame is a costly mistake — specify based on your incomer current rating:

Selection rule: If your transformer incomer or bus coupler current rating is 1600A or below — specify NW1. Above 1600A up to 4000A — specify NW2. For 4000A to 6300A requirements, consider the MasterPact MTZ ACB.

Breaking Capacity Types — C, N and H Explained

The EasyPact NW is available in three breaking capacity types. Selecting the wrong type for your fault level is a safety hazard — the breaker can fail catastrophically under a fault rather than trip safely:

⚠ For GCC panel builders: Most DEWA and SEC-approved switchboard designs in industrial zones specify Type N (50kA) as minimum. If the transformer is 1600kVA or above and the ACB is installed close to the LV busbar, specify Type H (66kA). Never downgrade the breaking capacity to save cost — the consequences of an undersized ACB failing under fault are catastrophic.

Trip Unit Options — TS vs TSE

The EasyPact NW is available with two trip unit options:

• TS (Basic Trip Unit) — provides LSIG protection (Long-time, Short-time, Instantaneous, Ground fault). No display. Cost-effective for standard protection requirements where BMS integration is not required
• TSE (Trip Unit with Display) — provides LSIG protection plus real-time current display, event logging, trip history, and Modbus communication. Recommended for main incomers where energy monitoring and fault diagnostics are required per DEWA or SEC metering specifications

For data centres and critical infrastructure: Always specify TSE with display and Modbus — the event log and connectivity are essential for facilities management and compliance with uptime SLAs.

Fixed vs Draw-Out Installation

EasyPact NW is available in three installation configurations:

• Fixed (F) — bolted directly into the switchboard. Lower cost. Suitable for installations where maintenance outages can be planned and the ACB can be de-energised for servicing
• Manual Draw-Out (MDO) — chassis can be manually withdrawn from the switchboard without disconnecting busbars. Enables ACB maintenance and replacement without full switchboard shutdown
• Electrical Draw-Out (EDO) — motorised racking in and out. Required for remote operation and automation. Specified on data centres, critical infrastructure, and large industrial facilities where manual access is restricted

EasyPact NW Applications — GCC and Africa Projects

These are the B2B sectors where Electrical Junction regularly supplies EasyPact NW ACBs for panel projects:

Main LV Switchboards (MLVS) — Commercial Buildings

EasyPact NW is the preferred ACB for main incomer positions in Main LV Switchboards for hotels, office towers, shopping malls, and hospitals across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, and Jeddah. Typically specified as NW1 or NW2 Type N (50kA), 4P with TSE display unit for DEWA sub-metering compliance.

Industrial Facilities and Factories

Manufacturing plants, food processing facilities, and industrial parks in Saudi Arabia's industrial cities (SIDF-approved zones) specify EasyPact NW on transformer incomer and MCC bus coupler positions. Type H (66kA) is commonly required for incomers directly connected to 1600kVA or 2000kVA transformers.

Data Centres

Dubai and Riyadh's rapidly expanding data centre sector specifies EasyPact NW on main incomer, bus coupler, and generator tie positions in switchboards rated 2000A to 4000A. EDO (Electrical Draw-Out) with TSE display and Modbus is standard — enabling remote racking and real-time monitoring without entering live switchgear.

Oil and Gas — Onshore and Offshore

Onshore processing plants and offshore platform topsides across Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and Oman specify EasyPact NW on main distribution board incomers. Type H (66kA) with 4P configuration is standard for offshore platforms where generator fault levels are high.

Water Treatment and Infrastructure

DEWA, ADWEA, and SEC water infrastructure projects specify EasyPact NW on pumping station main switchboards. NW2 Type N, 4P, with MDO installation is the typical specification — enabling ACB withdrawal for maintenance without shutting down the entire pumping station.

MasterPact NW to EasyPact NW — Migration Guide

If your panel design was originally specified with the legacy MasterPact NW (MVS) range which is now being phased out, the EasyPact NW is the direct replacement with improved specifications:

Important for replacement orders: The EasyPact NW uses a new chassis — it is NOT a plug-in replacement for the legacy MVS draw-out chassis. If you are retrofitting an existing switchboard, confirm chassis compatibility with our engineering team before ordering. We can advise on whether a chassis adapter or full ACB replacement is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between EasyPact NW1 and NW2?

EasyPact NW1 covers 630A to 1600A. EasyPact NW2 covers 800A to 4000A. Both are available in Types C (36kA), N (50kA), and H (66kA) breaking capacities, and in Fixed, MDO, and EDO installation versions. Select based on your incomer or feeder current rating.

Is the EasyPact NW compatible with 60Hz for Saudi Arabia?

Yes. The Schneider EasyPact NW is rated for 50Hz and 60Hz operation. It is suitable for direct use on Saudi Arabia's 60Hz electrical grid without any modification. Our team confirms frequency compatibility on every GCC export order.

Can the EasyPact NW replace the legacy EasyPact MVS in an existing switchboard?

The EasyPact NW is the direct successor to the MVS range with improved specifications. However, the draw-out chassis is not identical — a plug-in replacement is not always possible. Contact Electrical Junction with your existing switchboard drawing and we will confirm compatibility and advise on the correct migration path.

Does Electrical Junction stock EasyPact NW ACBs for immediate dispatch?

Yes. We maintain stock of EasyPact NW1 and NW2 in Types N and H at our Dubai warehouse for immediate dispatch. For less common configurations (Type C, specific EDO variants), lead time is confirmed at quotation stage — typically 5–7 working days from Schneider Electric.

What export documentation do you provide for Saudi Arabia and GCC shipments?

Every GCC export shipment includes commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and SABER PCoC for Saudi Arabia. G-Mark confirmation is provided for all regulated product categories. Our team handles all documentation — your goods will not be held at the border.
