Mechanism 12 High-Current Isolation

Switch-disconnectors provide a dedicated means of manually switching and isolating electrical circuits from their power source. The ABB OT1250E12P combines a substantial 1250 A current capacity with three-pole switching and a mechanism positioned between the poles, providing a practical arrangement for high-current three-phase power distribution systems.

Unlike versions supplied without operating accessories, the OT1250E12P includes the handle, adjustable shaft and terminal bolt kit as standard. The IP65 handle is padlockable in the OFF position and supports door interlocking, while the switch's 50 kA Icw for 1 s and high AC-23A switching performance make it suitable for demanding industrial isolation duties.

Typical Applications

  • High-current industrial power distribution.
  • Main and sub-main electrical isolation.
  • Industrial switchboards and distribution assemblies.
  • Large machinery and production equipment.
  • High-power motor and load switching.
  • Manufacturing and process installations.
  • Power generation and infrastructure systems.
