£828.84
The Lovato GE0315E 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 suitable for mains-to-generator systems, dual-supply panels and low-voltage power distribution applications requiring dependable manual source selection.
With a rated conventional free air thermal current of 315A, the GE0315E provides robust switching performance for demanding electrical systems. Its I-0-II stable switching positions allow clear selection between two supplies with an off position, helping support safe source transfer in industrial switchboards and distribution assemblies.
The Lovato GE0315E is supplied for screw-on plate installation and is designed for use with suitable Lovato handles, shafts and changeover switch accessories. It is a practical choice for panel builders, contractors and engineers needing a high-current AC changeover switch for manual transfer and isolation applications.
Changeover switches such as the Lovato GE0315E are used to manually transfer electrical loads between two independent AC power sources. This supports safe source selection in systems where operators need to switch between mains supply, standby generator supply or alternative incoming feeds.
The robust three-pole construction, high current rating and I-0-II switching sequence make the GE0315E 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.
