General Duty Safety Switches

Product Description

Light duty safety switches are ideal for home applications when disconnecting power to workshops, hobby rooms, furnaces and garages. General duty safety switches are designed for residential and commercial applications where durability and economy are prime considerations. Typical loads include lighting, air conditioning and appliances. They are suitable for use as service equipment when equipped with a factory-installed neutral assembly or field-installed service grounding kit, as applicable. Light duty and general duty safety switches are UL℠ Listed, File E2875, and meet or exceed the NEMA® Standard KS1.

Construction

Visible Blade Construction

Indoor NEMA Type 1 or Outdoor NEMA Type 3R enclosures
Visible blades for positive indication that the switch is “OFF”
Quick-make, quick-break operating mechanism (general duty only)
Lugs suitable for aluminum or copper conductors. See Equipment Grounding Kits for additional lug data
Spring reinforced, plated copper fuse clips

Spring Reinforced Fuse Clips

Operating Mechanism with Line Base Series F

Series F handle/lock-plate is a field-replaceable modular design
Series F operating mechanism is an enclosed, field-replaceable, modular design
Series F NEMA Type 3R covers have side opening construction
Top endwalls in 30–200 A NEMA Type 3R switches have bolt-on hub provisions
Multiple padlock provisions in “OFF” position
Tangential combination knockouts alleviate the need for offset bends

Enclosures

Enclosures are finished in gray, baked enamel that is electrodeposited on cleaned, phosphatized steel.

NEMA Type 1 general purpose, indoor
NEMA Type 3R general purpose, outdoor

Accessories

Rainproof Hubs

RB Hub Provisions 30–200 A

Bolt-on hubs for rainproof applications. Switches with RB suffix accept 3/4 in. (19 mm) through 2-1/2 in. (63 mm) bolt-on hubs. Switches with R suffix have blank endwalls.

Hub Cat. Number	B075	B100	B125	B150	B200	B250	B300	B350	B400	BCAP

NEMA Type 3R rainproof enclosures with a catalog number ending in RB, have a bolt-on closing cap factory-installed. Order bolt-on hubs separately. Refer to the information in Rainproof Bolt-On Hubs—For Use on NEMA Type 3R Enclosures. Hubs through size 2-1/2 in. (63 mm), can be directly installed on RB devices. Devices requiring 3 in. (76 mm) or larger hubs, must have holes cut in the field. Gaskets are provided on 3 in. (76 mm) and larger hubs. All hubs are UL Listed for indoor and rainproof applications and suitable for use with conduits containing an ANSI standard taper pipe thread.

Electrical Interlock Kits

Electrical interlocks for Series F 100–200 A general duty safety switches and Series F 60 A fusible general duty safety switches are available in kit form for field installation. Each kit contains instructions for proper field mounting. A pivot arm operates from the switch mechanism, breaking the control circuit before the main switch blades break. Switches with electrical interlocks installed are UL Listed.
