Key specifications

• Number of poles: 3
• Rated operational current: 160A
• Connection type: M8 terminals
• Device type: Fuse switch disconnector

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local safety regulations. The unit is designed for mounting within a standard electrical switchboard. Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before beginning the installation. Connect the incoming and outgoing cables to the M8 terminals, ensuring that all connections are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque. Insert the appropriate fuses into the device before closing the housing and restoring power.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 160A rating matches your circuit requirements
• Ensure the M8 connection type is compatible with your existing cabling
• Confirm the physical dimensions fit your current switchboard layout
• Check that the fuse type used is compatible with the disconnector specifications

Usage recommendations

Always verify that the device is in the open position before performing any maintenance on downstream equipment. Regularly inspect the terminals for tightness and ensure the fuse contacts remain clean and free of debris to maintain optimal electrical conductivity.
