£94.83
The ABB OT16F4C is a compact and reliable 4-pole manual change-over switch designed for safe source transfer and switching in low-voltage electrical installations. As part of the proven ABB OT Series, it provides dependable manual change-over control for industrial panels, machinery, switchboards and power distribution applications.
This switch features an open transition change-over operation, helping ensure the load is disconnected before being reconnected to the alternate supply. Its front-operated design, protected clamp terminals and compact construction make it suitable for professional panel building, OEM machinery and enclosure-mounted electrical systems.
With a 16 A operational rating, 4-pole configuration and 750 V AC rated insulation voltage, the ABB OT16F4C is ideal for manual supply selection, generator change-over, control panel switching and isolation duties. The handle and operating shaft are ordered separately, allowing flexible configuration for different enclosure layouts.
Manual change-over switches are used to transfer electrical loads between two supplies while maintaining safe disconnection during the switching process. They are commonly used in systems requiring manual source selection, controlled isolation and dependable low-voltage switching.
The ABB OT16F4C provides robust change-over performance in a compact format, making it well suited to control panels, machinery, small distribution boards and OEM electrical assemblies. Its 4-pole design allows switching of three phases plus neutral in suitable applications.
