What an Isolator Switch Does

An isolator switch provides a clear, positive means of disconnecting a circuit or piece of equipment from the supply, so it can be worked on safely. Being lockable, it can be secured in the off position with a padlock so the circuit cannot be re-energised while maintenance is in progress. The UKF1-20 is the single-pole 20A version, switching one pole of a single-phase circuit, and its IP66 housing suits outdoor and exposed installations.

Built for Australian Conditions

GEN3 industrial switchgear is rated IP66 and made from PCA18 virgin-grade plastic with 316 stainless steel springs and mounting screws, with an operating temperature range of −25°C to +70°C. Brass internal components are greater than 85% copper, which reduces heat rise under load. The isolator has top and bottom cable entries and comes with a mounting template for fast installation, and carries Australian/NZ approval or compliance certification.
