Product Overview
General Duty Safety Switches are intended for applications where reliable performance and continuity of service are needed, but where duty requirements are not severe and usual service conditions prevail. These switches are intended for use primarily with supply circuits rated 240-Volt AC or less where the available fault current is less than 100,000 Amp when used with Class R or T fuses or 10,000 Amp max when used with class H fuses.
- 120/240-Volt, single phase, 3 wire, fusible safety switch
- Quick-make, quick-break operating mechanism that ensures positive operation
- Generous wiring gutters that meet or exceed NEC wire-bending space requirements
- Visible blade, double-break switch action
- Highly visible on/off indication
- Single cover interlock
- Side-hinged door that opens 180Ëš for easier wiring
- Unique enclosure design that adds rigidity and strength, its rolled edge prevents cuts and scrapes to conductors and to installer's hands
- NEMA type 3R: enclosure is intended for outdoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against falling rain and sleet and must remain undamaged by the formation or ice on the enclosure; they are not intended to provide protection against conditions such as dust, internal condensation, or internal icing

The inside of the switch box does not have any protection cover that prevents someone coming in contact with the 240 volts coming into the switch. To prevent anyone becoming electrocuted that should open the switch that doesn't know what they are doing it must be kept padlocked at all times. Siemens needs to add a protective cover over the inside connectors.
