EBM’s Distribution Air-Break Switches are rugged, pole-mounted disconnectors designed for overhead distribution networks. These switches provide a reliable method for isolating or switching overhead conductors, essential for safe maintenance, network sectionalizing, or emergency disconnection of faulted lines.
They are suitable for medium-voltage distribution applications and are approved for use by the relevant utility standards in South Africa (Eskom-approved).
- Pole mounted disconnectors up to 52kV.
- Available in off load and load break.
- Available in single pole or H-pole mounting.
- Silicone insulators.
- Eskom SA approved.
- Pull to open / Pull to close.
Typical Applications
- Isolation of overhead line sections for maintenance, inspection, or repair.
- Switching overhead distribution feeders or transformers in a distribution network.
- Network sectionalizing, enabling parts of the network to be disconnected without affecting other circuits.
- Emergency disconnection of faulty lines to protect the network and for safer restoration or repairs.
