Heavy-Duty Protection for Mining ApplicationsThe E2NM3800WA06S10 is part of Eaton's E2 Mining Series, a family of circuit breakers developed through close collaboration between Eaton design engineers and a focus group led by engineers from several major coal companies. This partnership ensured that E2 mining breakers incorporate the rigorous specifications and testing procedures required for safe, reliable operation in underground mining environments.
Designed for the N-frame platform, this complete breaker delivers 800A continuous current capacity at 1000Y/577 Vac, with a 25 kAIC interrupting rating at 1000 Vac. It is also rated for 250 Vdc applications, providing versatility for mining power systems that often include both AC and DC distribution.

Precision Electronic Trip Protection
The breaker features an electronic LI trip unit (Long-Time and Instantaneous protection), delivering true RMS current sensing for accurate correlation with thermal characteristics of conductors and equipment . The magnetic trip range spans 500-2500A, offering flexible adjustment to match specific system requirements.
As part of the E2 Mining Series, the trip unit utilizes a custom ASIC microprocessor design, making these breakers the first in the mining industry to provide true RMS sensing. This technology improves protection accuracy and coordination, reducing nuisance tripping while ensuring reliable fault clearing.
Designed for Mining Environments
The E2NM3800WA06S10 comes equipped with features specifically tailored for mining applications:
Without terminals as standard, the breaker offers flexibility for custom lug configurations based on specific installation needs.
Compact and Durable Construction
With dimensions of 8.25 inches in height and width, and 5.5 inches in depth, the E2NM3800WA06S10 features a compact N-frame design weighing approximately 45 pounds. The glass polyester case construction provides durability in harsh mining conditions.
Warranty and Support
Like all E2 mining breakers, the E2NM3800WA06S10 is backed by Eaton's Selling Policy 25-000, offering a one-year warranty from the date of installation or eighteen months from the date of shipment, whichever occurs first.
Applications
The E2NM3800WA06S10 is ideal for:
Underground mining power distribution systems
Mining equipment feeders and branch circuits
High-capacity AC and DC mining power networks
Applications requiring remote tripping and status monitoring
