Why Choose the ABB OT3200E03CP Manual Change-over Switch?

The ABB OT3200E03CP is a heavy-duty 3200 A 3-pole manual change-over switch designed for dependable manual transfer between two high-current electrical power sources. Supplied under ABB product ID 1SCA129156R1001 and forming part of the ABB OT Change-over Switches range, it provides I-O-II operation for demanding industrial and commercial low-voltage distribution systems.

The OT3200E03CP uses an open-transition, break-before-make switching arrangement, providing a defined OFF position between source I and source II. It is front operated, base mounted and features its operating mechanism at the left-hand end of the switch, providing a robust arrangement for integration into high-current switchboards.

With a rated operational current of 3200 A and a 3-pole configuration, the OT3200E03CP is engineered for substantial three-phase power distribution duties. It is supplied with a black plastic IP65 I-O-II double pistol-type handle, operating shaft and cable connection bolt set, providing the principal manual operating components required for installation.

Reliable 3200 A Three-pole Power Source Change-over

Manual change-over switches provide a controlled method of transferring electrical loads between alternative power sources. The ABB OT3200E03CP uses I-O-II open-transition operation, ensuring the existing source connection is broken before the alternative source is connected and providing a defined OFF position between the two source positions.

The three-pole configuration is designed for high-current three-phase systems, while the 3200 A AC-21B rating and 65 kA short-time withstand capability support demanding distribution environments. Combined with its supplied IP65 double pistol-type handle, operating shaft and M12 × 100 connection bolt set, the OT3200E03CP provides a comprehensive manual switching solution for large switchboards and power distribution assemblies.

Typical Applications

  • High-current three-phase mains-to-generator change-over systems.
  • Main industrial electrical distribution switchboards.
  • Alternative and standby power source selection.
  • Large commercial and infrastructure power distribution systems.
  • Industrial plants and high-current electrical installations.
  • OEM switchboards and heavy-duty power distribution assemblies.
