The ABB OHB65J6 is a durable 65 mm pistol operating handle designed for the safe and dependable manual operation of compatible ABB switch-disconnectors, switch fuses and DC disconnect switches. As part of the established ABB OHB operating handle range, it provides an ergonomic external control point for switches installed inside electrical enclosures.
Designed for use with a 6 mm operating shaft, the OHB65J6 features a black finish and clear I-0 / ON-OFF position markings for easy switch status identification. Its rear screw-fixing arrangement leaves no exposed screws on the front, supporting double-insulated construction and a clean, professional panel appearance.
When correctly installed, the handle provides IP65 and NEMA Type 1, 3R and 12 protection. It can be secured with up to three padlocks in the OFF position and includes a door interlock in the ON position, helping improve safety during electrical maintenance and equipment servicing.
