The double side break design is useful in applications where there is limited overhead clearance and interphase distances need to be kept at a minimum. The switch is ideal for EHV applications where a naturally counterbalanced blade is advantageous.

  • Aluminum tubular blades
  • Non-cast aluminum terminal pads with NEMA standard hole pattern
  • High pressure, silver-to-silver line contacts at jaws
  • Stainless steel contact springs
  • Patented blade turnover mechanism designed to provide full blade rotation with minimal operating force
  • Hot-dip galvanized double channel base

Reference the DB-AV tab for drawings of the switch in a “V” configuration for low profile mounting.
