VOLTAGE CLASS

VOLTAGE CLASS                        up to 38 kV

CONTINUOUS CURRENT            up to 600 A

INTERRUPT RATING                   up to 31.5 kAIC

Core features

Available in stand-alone or line-ups, with indoor and outdoor configurations

Meets or exceeds IEEE C37.20.3 for metal-enclosed switchgear

Meets or exceeds NEMA SG5 and NEMA SG6

Quick-make, quick-break mechanism drives switch blades at high speed into either open or closed position  

Switches can be supplied with manual or electrical operating mechanisms and with or without primary fuses

Can eliminate the need for protective clothing around the perimeter of electrical distribution equipment

Door interlocks ensure that the switch and fuse panels remain closed unless the switch is opened

Viewing window provides clear, visible confirmation of disconnected switch contacts

Through-the-door switch operation is provided to maintain arc-resistant protection while operating the switch

Powerful switch protection

With the ability to manually cut off the power supply to a certain area or equipment, MVS switches are ideal for applications such as transformer primaries, duplex switches and selector switches. They are available in both stand-alone or line-ups.

Exceptional interrupting capabilities

The quick-make, quick-break mechanism on the medium-voltage switch provides full-load current interrupting capability, while fuses deliver accurate, permanently calibrated short circuit detecting and interrupting capabilities.

Safety is our top priority

Eaton’s medium-voltage switch includes numerous safety features, including a high-impact viewing window that allows visibility of actual blade position, door interlocks, switch interlocks, and grounded metal barrier.

Safeguard against switching transients

Ohmic voltage sensing (OVS) increases reliability over traditional  core and coil voltage transformers. Watch this brief video for an overview of the benefits of including an OVS system to protect against damaging transients.
