Why Choose the ABB OT1600FPC-A 1600 A 4-Pole Manual Change-Over Switch?
The ABB OT1600FPC-A is a heavy-duty 1600 A 4-pole manual change-over switch supplied in a robust steel enclosure for demanding low-voltage power distribution applications. As part of the ABB OT switch range, it provides manual transfer between electrical circuits where dependable high-current switching and four-pole change-over operation are required.
This complete enclosed assembly combines a high-current manual change-over switching mechanism with a durable steel enclosure. Its IP65 protection rating provides protection against dust ingress and water jets, making the OT1600FPC-A suitable for industrial environments where electrical switching equipment requires a high degree of enclosure protection.
With a rated current of 1600 A and a 4-pole configuration, the OT1600FPC-A is designed for substantial industrial distribution duties. Manual operation gives personnel direct control over source or circuit selection, while the enclosed construction provides a practical integrated solution for plant distribution, infrastructure and other high-current electrical systems.

Reliable Manual Change-Over for High-Current Power Systems
Manual change-over switches provide a controlled means of transferring an electrical load or distribution circuit between alternative supply paths. The ABB OT1600FPC-A combines a substantial 1600 A current rating with four-pole switching, making it suitable for installations where all four conductors must be changed over together.
The integrated IP65 steel enclosure provides robust environmental protection for the switching assembly and simplifies installation as a complete enclosed unit. Manual operation makes the OT1600FPC-A particularly suitable for applications where deliberate operator-controlled change-over is required rather than automatic source transfer.
Typical Applications
- Manual change-over between electrical power sources.
- Industrial low-voltage power distribution systems.
- Main distribution and switchboard applications.
- Generator and alternative-supply change-over systems.
- Manufacturing and process plant electrical installations.
- Infrastructure and high-current industrial power systems.
