Description

Schneider Electric's Square D general duty safety switches are designed for residential and light commercial applications where durability and economy are prime considerations. Typical loads include lighting, air conditioning, and appliances. General duty safety switches feature a quick make, quick break operating mechanism. This single throw safety switch is a fusible disconnect and has a rated current of 100A for 120/240VAC. This general duty switch has a 3 wire configuration with 2 poles and a factory installed bonded neutral. The device accepts cartridge fuse types. The enclosure is surface mounted and is a Type 1 galvannealed steel. This switch complies with CSA C22.2.

Features

Constructed from durable galvannealed steel, this NEMA 1 rated enclosure is explicitly designed for indoor surface mounting in dry environments like garages, basements, or commercial utility rooms. Utilizing this indoor-specific general duty safety switch protects the internal components from accidental physical contact and dust buildup, ensuring reliable, long-lasting performance for your electrical distribution system.
Engineered to manage heavy residential and light commercial equipment, this 2-pole disconnect switch safely handles 100 amps at 120/240VAC and supports motor loads up to 30 HP. It features a rugged quick-make, quick-break operating mechanism that minimizes dangerous electrical arcing during operation, guaranteeing safe, continuous power control for branch circuits, well pumps, and heavy appliances.
Designed to accept standard cartridge fuses, this fusible disconnect switch provides an impressive 100kA maximum short-circuit current rating (SCCR) to aggressively defend your hardware against destructive power surges. Complete with a factory-installed solid neutral, it instantly isolates critical electrical faults and breaks the circuit, preventing costly fire hazards and protecting expensive downline equipment from catastrophic damage.
Fully UL Listed and CSA Certified, this Square D general duty safety switch meets the most rigorous North American code requirements for safe use as residential or commercial service equipment. Installing this factory-tested, code-compliant hardware guarantees a seamless, penalty-free inspection process for licensed electricians while ensuring commercial liability and homeowner's insurance policies remain strictly valid.
