Load Break Switches
Switch-disconnectors, more commonly known as load break switches, provide a means for safe disconnection of electrical loads or equipment from the power supply. Such disconnection is essential and well suited for various scenarios, such as performing maintenance work, repairs, or inspections on electrical equipment. NHP’s load break switch offering includes modular and standard switches, along with switches with visible breaking and positive break indication, remote trip switches and enclosed options. Options are available to suit up to 415V AC and 1500V DC applications with a comprehensive range of current ratings. Accompanying accessories are also available to fulfil any application requirement.
