Why it Matters

Weatherproof isolation you can trust
The IP66 rating means the 56SW210/2-GY is fully protected against dust ingress and powerful water jets from any direction. That level of sealing makes it a go-to choice for locations where a switch faces exposure to the weather, high-pressure washdowns or airborne debris. The moulded polycarbonate housing also resists UV and impact, so the enclosure holds its shape and finish even after years of sun exposure.

Two-pole switching for safer maintenance
A 2-pole design breaks both the active and neutral conductors in a single action. That gives full circuit isolation when working on downstream equipment, which is why 56 Series isolators remain a familiar sight on Australian sites governed by the AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules. Clear I-II marking on the surface makes the switch position easy to read at a glance, and the rotary knob gives positive tactile feedback with every operation.

Built for the Australian environment
The wide -25 to 75 degrees C operating range and UV-stable polycarbonate housing suit installation across the country, from cool southern climates to hot northern job sites. The padlockable rotary handle also supports lock-out, tag-out procedures on plant and equipment, so maintenance crews can safely isolate a circuit and secure it while work is carried out. A tightening torque specification of 0.8 N.m and screw terminals keep termination straightforward for licensed installers.

Q: Is the 56SW210/2-GY suitable for outdoor installation?
A: Yes. It carries an IP66 rating to AS 60529 and is designed for weather-exposed surface mounting.

Q: Can this switch isolate motor loads?
A: Yes. It carries a Motor M40 rating at 250V under AS/NZS 3133, which covers the specified motor loads within its 10A current rating.

Q: What size padlock fits the rotary handle?
A: The handle accepts up to two padlocks with an 8mm shackle diameter for lock-out purposes.
