Cross connector In=20A P=6.5 kW T0-4-8410/I1 207140

Universal cam switch for various applications

This cam switch from Eaton, with a rated current of 20A and a power of 6.5 kW, is a robust solution for controlling electrical circuits. It is suitable for both industrial installations and public or residential buildings. Its versatility stems from the possibility of mounting it on a plate or in an enclosure, providing flexibility in choosing the installation location. The plastic construction ensures good insulation and resistance to mechanical damage.

Construction and functionality

A cam switch is a device designed for manual switching of electrical circuits. This model has three poles and is a complete device in an enclosure, which simplifies installation and provides additional protection. It is equipped with a "0" position, allowing for complete disconnection of the circuit. The type of connection of the main contacts – screw connection – ensures secure and durable electrical connections. The short rotary handle makes it easy to operate, and the IP65 degree of protection guarantees resistance to dust and water jets, allowing it to be used even in harsh environmental conditions. Additionally, it has a NEMA 12 degree of protection.
