Why Choose the Mersen NP40 Neutral Pole Accessory?
The Mersen NP40 is a dedicated neutral pole accessory designed for use with compatible Mersen M40 disconnect switches. It enables the switching assembly to accommodate a neutral conductor, making it suitable for electrical systems that require coordinated isolation of the phase conductors and neutral connection.
Developed for industrial control panels, machinery and power distribution equipment, the NP40 provides a practical way to extend a compatible M40 switch configuration. Its purpose-designed construction helps ensure reliable mechanical integration and consistent switching performance within the assembled disconnect system.
The NP40 is rated for the 40 A M40 switch platform and is supplied as an accessory rather than a complete disconnect switch. It should be selected with a compatible Mersen M40 switch and appropriate operating components to create the required electrical isolation arrangement.

Additional Neutral Isolation for M40 Switches
The Mersen NP40 allows a compatible M40 disconnect switch assembly to include a switched neutral pole. This can be required in installations where the neutral conductor must be disconnected alongside the phase conductors for maintenance, servicing or operational isolation.
Because the NP40 is manufactured specifically for the M40 switch platform, it provides the mechanical compatibility required for a compact and coordinated switch assembly. The complete installation should be designed and installed in accordance with the applicable electrical regulations and equipment requirements.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control panels.
- Machinery disconnect assemblies.
- Electrical distribution panels.
- OEM equipment and automation systems.
- Three-phase systems requiring neutral switching.
- Maintenance and equipment isolation circuits.
