Schneider Electric XA2EG33 XA2E key selector, 3 pos, 2 NO
Description
XA2EG33: XA2E key selector switch, 3 positions 45°, 2 NO
The XA2EG33 is a Schneider Electric Harmony XA2 complete key selector switch in the XA2E plastic series. It has 3 positions 45°, a stay-put operator and 2 NO, and it is operated with key number 455. The key can be withdrawn in the center position. Seven Star LLC supplies the XA2EG33 in Oman and the GCC as an independent supplier in Muscat.
The datasheet used for this page is dated 8 Nov 2026 and shows the reference as discontinued: discontinuation is dated 9 Jan 2026 and end of service 1 Jul 2026. Treat availability as stock-dependent and ask about replacement options when you enquire. The key switch is a deliberate-access device: only a person holding the key can change the selected position.

Key, positions and withdrawal on the XA2EG33
The datasheet lists key number 455 and withdrawal in the center position. Withdrawal in the centre position means the key comes out only when the switch sits in the neutral middle position. The switch has 3 positions 45°; the handle is a key cylinder rather than a lever.
Treat key number as a part of the order, not an afterthought: all switches that must share one key need the same number, while switches that must not share a key need different ones. Ask which key arrangement your site rule uses before ordering.
Mounting and wiring of the XA2EG33
The body fits a 22.5 mm panel hole with a fixing-nut torque of 2–2.4 N.m. Overall size is 30 mm wide, 42 mm high and 85.7 mm deep and the net weight is 0.078 kg. The extra depth compared with a lever selector is the key cylinder, so check clearance behind the door. Wiring goes to screw clamp terminals for up to 2 x 1.5 mm² or 1 x 2.5 mm² (minimum 0.5 mm²), or 6.3 mm Faston tabs, tightened to 0.8 N.m.
The 2 NO contacts are normally open: with two contacts, each closes on a different side. Mark the schematic with the key number and the position used for each contact.
Electrical ratings and life of the XA2EG33
The rated operational current is 3 A at 240 V AC-15 and 0.27 A at 250 V DC-13; rated insulation voltage is 600 V and impulse withstand voltage 6 kV. A 10 A gL fuse is named as short-circuit protection. Electrical durability is 500000 cycles at 3 A AC-15 / 230 V and 500000 cycles at 0.2 A DC-13 / 110 V. Mechanical durability is 100000 cycles, noticeably lower than a push-button because a key cylinder is a heavier mechanism.
Key switches are normally used for infrequent changes of mode, so that figure is usually adequate; they are not meant for rapid cycling.
The XA2EG33 among XA2E key selectors
The three key selectors in this range of references share key number 455 but differ in positions, contacts and where the key can be withdrawn.
| Reference | Positions | Contacts | Key withdrawal | Depth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XA2EG21 | 2 positions 90° | 1 NO | Left | 85.7 mm |
| XA2EG33 (this page) | 3 positions 45° | 2 NO | Center | 85.7 mm |
| XA2EG43 | 2 positions 90° | 2 NO | Left and right | 85.7 mm |
The choice depends on which states must be lockable and how many independent contacts the circuit needs.
Where the XA2EG33 is used in Oman and the GCC
Key selectors restrict who can change a mode: bypass or override switches on safety interlocks, local-remote selection on pump and compressor panels, test or maintenance modes, and access control on machine guards. On Gulf sites with contractors on shift, a key held by the supervisor prevents a casual change.
This unit has a front rating below that of push-buttons, so in sandy, humid or wash-down areas use it inside a closed enclosure or under a cover, and keep the key cylinder clean.

About brand
Schneider Electric is the French group for energy management and industrial automation: low and medium voltage switchgear and circuit breakers, motor control, drives, PLCs, power monitoring, UPS systems and building management. Its history goes back to 1836, when the brothers Adolphe and Eugène Schneider took over the iron and steel works at Le Creusot in Burgundy. Over the 20th century the company left steel and heavy engineering and became an electrical group through acquisitions such as Merlin Gerin, Télémécanique, Square D and Modicon. Its head office is in Rueil-Malmaison near Paris, and its shares are listed on Euronext Paris.

Milestones
- 1836: The Schneider brothers acquire the Le Creusot works; the business grows in steel, locomotives and heavy engineering.
- 1975: First investment in Merlin Gerin, a French maker of electrical distribution equipment.
- 1988–1992: Télémécanique, Square D (USA) and Merlin Gerin join the group, making it an electrical specialist.
- 1997: Modicon, the company behind the first programmable logic controller, joins the group.
- 1999: The group takes the name Schneider Electric.

Choosing Schneider Electric breakers and motor control
Circuit breakers are chosen by current and breaking capacity. Acti9 miniature circuit breakers (iC60, C120) protect final circuits up to 125 A. ComPacT NSX molded case breakers cover about 16 to 630 A, and the letter after the frame size sets the breaking capacity: B, F, N, H, S, L from lowest to highest. MasterPacT air circuit breakers are used as main incomers on large switchboards. For motors, a TeSys contactor with an LRD overload relay or a GV2 motor circuit breaker suits direct starting, an Altistart soft starter reduces starting current, and an Altivar drive controls speed. The breaking capacity must always be at least the prospective short-circuit current at the point of installation.
Where Schneider Electric products are used
In Oman and the GCC, Schneider Electric equipment is found in main and sub-main switchboards of commercial and residential buildings, motor control centres in water, oil and gas and industrial plants, substations protected by Sepam and Easergy relays, data centres powered by Galaxy and APC UPS systems, and buildings controlled by EcoStruxure Building Operation.
APC by Schneider Electric: UPS and critical power
Since 2007, APC has been part of Schneider Electric and is now its product brand for uninterruptible power supplies, replacement batteries, battery packs, network management cards and rack power distribution. Our APC catalogue covers Smart-UPS line-interactive and on-line models, Easy UPS On-Line, the modular Symmetra LX, RM and PX ranges, Silcon three-phase systems and their spare part kits, and the RBC cartridges that keep them running. Schneider Electric breakers, drives and PLCs can be quoted together with APC UPS systems in one request.

Ordering Schneider Electric products: what we need
Send the commercial reference from the label (for example LC1D18M7 or ATV320U22N4C). For breakers, confirm the rated current, number of poles, breaking capacity and trip unit. For contactors, give the coil voltage. For drives, give the motor power and supply voltage. APC products are listed on their own brand page.
