£710.17
The Lovato GE0250E is a heavy-duty three-pole manual changeover switch designed for safe and reliable transfer between two AC power sources in industrial and commercial electrical installations. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, this GE series device is ideal for applications requiring dependable source selection, mains-to-generator transfer and robust low-voltage switching.
With a rated conventional free air thermal current of 250A, the GE0250E provides strong performance for demanding power distribution systems. Its I-0-II stable switching positions allow clear source selection, while screw-on plate installation supports secure mounting inside electrical panels and switchboards.
The Lovato GE0250E is supplied without a handle, allowing panel builders to select the appropriate Lovato direct operating or door-coupling handle and shaft arrangement for the installation. It is a reliable choice for mains changeover, standby power systems and industrial control panels where safe manual switching is essential.
Changeover switches such as the Lovato GE0250E are used to manually transfer electrical loads between two separate AC power sources. This supports safe and controlled switching between mains supply, standby generator systems or alternative incoming feeds in industrial and commercial environments.
The robust three-pole construction, high current rating and I-0-II switching sequence make the GE0250E suitable for demanding power distribution applications. Its accessory compatibility also allows engineers to configure the switch for direct operation, door-coupled operation or motorised control where required.
