Overhead Linear Puffer Switches

Load break with 40kA asymmetrical momentary.

G&W's overhead Linear Puffer (LP) load break switches are designed for operation on distribution systems rated through 38kV, 630A continuous and 40kA asymmetrical short circuit. LP switches can accommodate almost every user switching requirement. The switches are designed and tested to applicable ANSI and IEC standards.

Features:
Heavy Duty Ratings – LP switches are designed for rugged duty applications. Switches are tested and rated to 40kA rms asymmetrical momentary and fault close, 1200 load break operations at full rated current and 2000 mechanical operations.
Visible Open/Close – A color coded contact indicator (green/open, red/closed) is standard and easily visible from ground level. An optional viewing window is available permitting visible verification of contact position for all 3 phases.
