Electrical enclosure accessory Hager SA480 — AC input 230–415 V, 4-pole isolating modular switch

The Hager SA480 is a high-quality 4-pole isolating modular switch designed for professional electrical distribution systems. This device serves as a reliable disconnect mechanism, allowing for the safe isolation of electrical circuits during maintenance, testing, or emergency procedures. Engineered for seamless integration into standard distribution boards and enclosures, it supports an AC input voltage range of 230–415 V, ensuring compatibility with a wide variety of residential and light commercial power setups.

Advantages

This modular switch offers robust construction and high operational reliability, which are hallmarks of Hager electrical components. Its 4-pole configuration allows for the simultaneous disconnection of all phases and the neutral, providing a comprehensive safety barrier. The compact modular design ensures it occupies minimal space within an enclosure, while the ergonomic toggle mechanism allows for quick and intuitive manual operation. Furthermore, the device is built to withstand the rigors of frequent switching, ensuring long-term durability in demanding electrical environments.

Suitable for

• Residential power distribution boards
• Light commercial electrical panels
• Circuit isolation for maintenance and repair
• Safety disconnection in modular enclosures

This switch may not be suitable for high-voltage industrial applications exceeding 415 V or for environments requiring specialized explosion-proof or heavy-duty outdoor-rated enclosures without additional protection. It is intended for use within controlled distribution board environments and should not be used as a substitute for a circuit breaker or residual current device in applications where overcurrent or leakage protection is required.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 4
• Rated operational voltage: 230–415 V AC
• Mounting type: DIN rail
• Function: Isolating switch

The Hager SA480 is designed for installation by qualified personnel onto a standard DIN rail within an electrical enclosure. Once mounted, the input and output cables should be connected to the corresponding terminals, ensuring that all connections are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque settings. The switch is operated manually via the front-facing toggle, which clearly indicates the ON and OFF positions for safe circuit management.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the current rating matches your specific circuit requirements
• Verify available space on the DIN rail within your enclosure
• Confirm that the 4-pole configuration meets your system's wiring needs

For optimal safety and performance, always ensure the power supply is disconnected before beginning installation. Regularly inspect the switch for any signs of wear or loose connections during routine maintenance of your electrical distribution system.
