Why Choose the CHINT SM1146 45A Double Pole Switch with Neon?
The CHINT SM1146 is a robust 45 A double pole switch with neon indicator designed for reliable switching and isolation of high-current fixed electrical loads. As part of the CHINT Shield SM Series, it combines heavy-duty switching with premium grade steel metal clad construction for demanding domestic, commercial and light-industrial electrical installations.
The SM1146 uses double pole switching, allowing both live and neutral conductors to be switched simultaneously. An integrated neon indicator provides a clear visual indication, while the metal clad construction makes the accessory particularly suitable for locations where a robust wiring solution is required.
With a rated current of 45 A and a vertical plate configuration, the SM1146 provides a practical local switching and isolation point for suitable high-current equipment. It forms part of CHINT's coordinated SM Series of metal clad switches, sockets, fused spurs and installation accessories.

Reliable High-Current Double Pole Switching
Double pole switches provide simultaneous switching of both live and neutral conductors, making them suitable for the local control and isolation of appropriate fixed electrical loads. The CHINT SM1146 combines this functionality with a 45 A current rating and an integrated neon indicator for convenient visual status indication.
The metal clad design makes the SM1146 particularly useful where a robust accessory is preferred over a conventional moulded fitting. Its premium grade steel construction and vertical format make it well suited to utility areas, workshops, commercial premises and other demanding fixed electrical installations.
