Why Choose the ABB EPX-PA812 800A 12-Way Pan Assembly?
The ABB EPX-PA812, manufacturer order code 1SKV580249S0001, is an 800 A, 12-way pan assembly designed for the ABB Protecta Power low-voltage electrical distribution system. This internal distribution component supports the construction of compatible high-capacity panelboards, providing the designated pan assembly arrangement for outgoing power distribution circuits.
With a specified 800 A current rating and 12 outgoing ways, the EPX-PA812 is suited to commercial and industrial electrical installations requiring substantial distribution capacity and flexible outgoing circuit arrangements. It forms part of ABB's modular Protecta Power system, which is designed around coordinated enclosures, busbar arrangements, incoming devices and outgoing moulded case circuit breakers (MCCBs).
The EPX-PA812 is a pan assembly component rather than a complete enclosed panelboard. It is intended for integration with the appropriate Protecta Power enclosure and separately selected compatible electrical equipment, allowing panel builders to construct a distribution assembly suited to the installation's circuit protection and power distribution requirements.

800A Pan Assemblies for ABB Protecta Power Distribution Boards
The ABB Protecta Power range provides modular low-voltage distribution solutions for installations requiring reliable power distribution and configurable outgoing protection. The system supports a range of incoming devices and ABB Tmax XT outgoing circuit breakers, allowing electrical designers to develop panelboard arrangements matched to the installation's requirements.
The EPX-PA812 is the 800 A, 12-way pan assembly within this product family. Other configurations include the EPX-PA808 for 800 A, 8-way applications and the EPX-PA818 for 800 A, 18-way applications. ABB also offers corresponding 400 A pan assemblies, including the EPX-PA408, EPX-PA412 and EPX-PA418.
The associated EPX-PB812 panelboard configuration features an 800 A busbar rating, 12 outgoing ways and an enclosure measuring 1700 mm high × 1000 mm wide × 300 mm deep. ABB identifies a useful outgoing breaker mounting length of 720 mm for the 12-way Protecta Power panelboard arrangement. These dimensions describe the associated panelboard configuration and should not be interpreted as the standalone physical dimensions of the EPX-PA812 pan assembly.
ABB Protecta Power incorporates a modular outgoing breaker system with plug-in connections and an improved finger-safe busbar stack. The complete distribution assembly must be configured using the appropriate ABB components and installation instructions. Electrical designers should verify the incoming device rating, outgoing circuit breaker selection, short-circuit withstand requirements, cable connections and protective device coordination. The 800 A pan assembly rating does not mean that each individual outgoing circuit is rated at 800 A.
