Switch Disconnector Switch
Switch Disconnector Switch
Switch disconnectors are capable of switching equipment and parts of electrical installations
when they are conducting their operational current under normal operating conditions.
Switch disconnectors do not have an overload or short-circuit release. For this reason, a
molded case circuit breaker or a fuse must be installed upstream of every switch
disconnector. Refer to chapter Upstream protection of switch disconnectors (Page 125).
