OT1600E22CP ABB 1600 A 4-Pole Manual Changeover Switch

Why Choose the ABB OT1600E22CP 1600 A Manual Changeover Switch?

The ABB OT1600E22CP is a heavy-duty 4-pole 1600 A manual changeover switch designed for reliable switching between two electrical supplies in low-voltage power distribution systems. As part of the ABB OT manual changeover switch range, it provides robust manual source selection for industrial switchboards, distribution panels and critical power installations.

This changeover switch uses an I-O-II open-transition operating sequence, providing a defined OFF position between the two supply positions. Its four-pole configuration allows four conductors to be switched, while the operating mechanism is positioned between the poles for a compact and practical installation arrangement.

With a rated current of 1600 A, the OT1600E22CP is engineered for high-current power distribution applications. The CP configuration is supplied with a black plastic pistol handle and operating shaft, supporting straightforward manual operation and integration into electrical switchboards.
