Why Choose the ABB EPX-8004DC Protecta Power 800 A 4-Pole Direct Connection Kit?
The ABB EPX-8004DC is an 800 A, 4-pole direct connection kit specified for the ABB Protecta Power range of low-voltage electrical distribution panelboards. Designed for compatible four-pole connection arrangements, this accessory supports the integration of an electrical supply connection into a Protecta Power distribution assembly.
As part of the ABB Protecta Power Enclosures product group, the EPX-8004DC provides a dedicated connection accessory for applications requiring an 800 A current rating and four-pole configuration. It is intended for use within an appropriately designed electrical distribution system, where the connection arrangement, busbar configuration and associated equipment are selected to meet the installation requirements.
Identified by ABB manufacturer order code 1SKV328840S0001, the EPX-8004DC enables electrical contractors, panel builders and consulting engineers to specify a direct connection kit using its defined current and pole configuration. It is a connection accessory rather than a standalone circuit breaker, switch disconnector or protective device.

800 A Four-Pole Direct Connections in Protecta Power Distribution Systems
Higher-current electrical distribution panelboards require carefully specified connections between the incoming electrical supply and the internal distribution arrangement. The selected components must be suitable for the intended current, conductor configuration, busbar arrangement and overall assembly design. The ABB EPX-8004DC provides an 800 A four-pole direct connection kit for compatible Protecta Power applications, allowing engineers to identify a dedicated accessory for this connection requirement.
The ABB Protecta Power range also includes MCCB incoming devices, switch disconnectors and their associated connection kits. A direct connection arrangement differs from an MCCB-based incoming arrangement because the connection kit itself does not provide circuit protection or switching isolation. Installers should verify the exact panelboard compatibility, required upstream protective device, connection details, conductor suitability and installation instructions before incorporating the EPX-8004DC into a completed electrical distribution assembly.
Typical Applications
- ABB Protecta Power low-voltage distribution panelboards.
- Compatible 800 A direct connection arrangements.
- Four-pole electrical distribution connections.
- Commercial building main distribution systems.
- Industrial low-voltage switchboard assemblies.
- Electrical plant room distribution installations.
- Higher-current power distribution projects.
- Professional switchboard manufacturing and panel-building.
- Compatible Protecta Power connection upgrades and modifications.
