GE0315BT4 - 4P SWITCH DISCONNECTOR W/BS FUSE HOLDER

Why Choose the GE0315BT4?

Lovato’s GE0315BT4 is a four-pole switch disconnector with BS fuse holder designed for reliable AC isolation and protection in demanding panels. With 315 A Ith and robust duty ratings across AC21A and AC22A to 690 V, it handles high currents confidently. The GE0315BT4 fits screw-on plate installations, helping panel builders streamline assembly while maintaining safe, compliant switching performance.

Built for reliability, this GE series unit offers Ui 1000 V and Uimp 12 kV, with AC23A switching to 315 A at 400/500 V and 250 A at 690 V. It delivers 100 kA conditional short-circuit withstand, 3150 A making and 2600 A breaking (AC23A, 400 V), plus 10,000 mechanical cycles. IP20 frontal protection, -25 to 55 °C operation, 3000 m altitude capability and 24 Nm max terminal torque support dependable service in pollution degree 3 environments.
