The Lovato GL0800C1UL is a heavy-duty three-pole UL98 switch disconnector designed for reliable switching and isolation of high-current AC electrical circuits. As part of the Lovato GL UL switch disconnector series, it provides a UL general-purpose current rating of 800 A and is suitable for industrial power distribution, machinery and switchboard applications.
Designed for installations requiring North American certification, the GL0800C1UL complies with UL98 and has a maximum UL operating voltage of 600 V AC. It carries three-phase motor ratings of 250 HP at 240 V and 500 HP at 480 V and 600 V, providing a robust switching solution for demanding industrial equipment.
The GL0800C1UL also provides an IEC conventional free-air thermal current rating of 800 A, a rated insulation voltage of 1000 V and a rated impulse withstand voltage of 12 kV. Its screw-on-plate mounting arrangement, M12 × 40 terminals and high short-circuit ratings support integration into substantial industrial switchboards and power-distribution assemblies.
Switch disconnectors provide a controlled means of switching and isolating electrical circuits from their power source. The Lovato GL0800C1UL combines an 800 A general-purpose UL rating with substantial motor horsepower and short-circuit ratings, making it suitable for demanding industrial installations where reliable high-current isolation is required.
The GL0800C1UL is particularly suited to equipment and switchboards designed around UL requirements. Its UL98 rating, maximum 600 V AC operating voltage, robust M12 × 40 terminals and screw-mounted construction provide a practical platform for high-current industrial distribution and machinery applications.
