ABB 1SCA131730R1001 OTDCP16S22MD four-pole enclosed DC solar switch disconnector rated at 16 A and up to 1000 V DC, with an IP65 UV-protected polycarbonate enclosure.
£126.31
The ABB 1SCA131730R1001, also known as the OTDCP16S22MD, is a robust enclosed DC switch disconnector designed for safe isolation in photovoltaic, battery storage and other direct-current electrical systems. Rated at 16 A and suitable for operational voltages up to 1000 V DC, it provides dependable on-load switching and secure circuit isolation.
The switch is housed in a rigid, glass-reinforced polycarbonate enclosure with a protective IP65 rating. Its UV-resistant construction and protection against low-pressure water jets make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. Threaded cable entries and knock-out holes at the top and bottom provide flexible wiring options for photovoltaic arrays and industrial DC equipment.
With a four-pole configuration, interlocked cover and black selector handle capable of accepting up to three padlocks, the OTDCP16S22MD helps improve maintenance safety and prevent unauthorised operation. Its compact enclosed design makes it ideal for solar panel systems, DC battery installations and renewable energy control equipment.
DC switch disconnectors provide a visible and dependable method of isolating electrical circuits before inspection, maintenance or emergency work. In photovoltaic installations, they allow the DC supply from solar panels to be disconnected from inverters and associated electrical equipment.
The ABB OTDCP16S22MD combines reliable switching performance with a durable weather-resistant enclosure. Its four-pole construction, lockable handle and cover interlock support safer working practices in residential, commercial and industrial renewable energy installations.
