Why Choose the ABB OT400DLCC3TZ 400A 3-Pole IP65 Steel Enclosed Safety Switch?
The ABB OT400DLCC3TZ (1SCA022281R6070) is a heavy-duty 400 A three-pole steel enclosed safety switch-disconnector designed for reliable manual load switching and local electrical isolation in industrial and commercial installations. Part of the ABB OT enclosed switch-disconnector range, it combines high-current switching performance with a durable metal enclosure and flexible C-flange cable entry provisions.
Featuring a 400 A AC-23A operational current rating at 415 V AC, the OT400DLCC3TZ is suitable for demanding three-phase electrical applications, including industrial machinery, motor feeders and power distribution equipment. ABB's current enclosed switch catalogue lists a corresponding 220 kW AC-23A motor switching capability at 415 V AC. The three-pole switching mechanism allows all three phase conductors to be disconnected together.
The switch is housed in a galvanised steel enclosure with a protective polyester coating and an IP65 protection rating. Its black pistol-grip operating handle provides clear ON/OFF indication and can be secured with up to three padlocks in the OFF position. The enclosure also features a mechanically interlocked cover with an authorised defeat facility, supporting controlled maintenance and inspection procedures.
A distinguishing feature of the OT400DLCC3TZ is its top and bottom C-flange cable entry arrangement. The enclosure provides two C-flange openings at the top and two at the bottom, supporting suitable single or parallel cable installations. The unit measures 800 × 400 × 230 mm and includes auxiliary contacts, protective earth terminal facilities and a robust surface-mounted construction.

High-Current Three-Phase Isolation with C-Flange Cable Entry Flexibility
The ABB OT400DLCC3TZ is designed to provide a clearly identifiable local isolation point for industrial electrical systems carrying substantial operating currents. Its three-pole switch-disconnector mechanism allows the three phase conductors to be opened together, supporting safe maintenance, inspection and servicing of electrical machinery and power distribution equipment.
The black pistol-grip operating handle provides straightforward manual ON/OFF switching and can be secured with up to three padlocks in the OFF position. This supports controlled isolation procedures by helping prevent unintended operation while maintenance is being carried out. The enclosure cover is mechanically interlocked with the switch mechanism and includes a defeatable interlock facility intended for authorised procedures.
The IP65 galvanised steel enclosure is designed for demanding industrial environments. Its protective polyester coating and construction support use in appropriately specified indoor and outdoor installations. ABB also identifies an integrated pressure relief function and a door earthing arrangement through the hinges. These features complement, but do not replace, correct electrical protection and safe installation practices.
A major installation advantage is the C-flange cable entry arrangement. The enclosure provides two C-flange openings at the top and two at the bottom, allowing suitable cable entry accessories to be selected for the required cable sizes and routing. The arrangement can support single or parallel cable installations where permitted by the electrical design. Compatible C-flanges and compression glands must be selected and ordered separately.
The switch includes auxiliary contact facilities that can be incorporated into appropriately designed control circuits for switch-position indication or electrical interlocking. These contacts do not provide the main power switching function and must be used within their specified electrical ratings.
As a switch-disconnector rather than an automatic protective device, the OT400DLCC3TZ does not independently provide overload or short-circuit protection. Suitable upstream circuit breakers, fuses or other protective devices must be incorporated into the electrical installation. The selected switching duty must also comply with the applicable AC-21, AC-22 or AC-23 utilisation-category ratings.
