Disconnect Enclosures
Essential to electrical systems, disconnect enclosures are devices intended to house and protect the disconnect switches and circuit breakers that shut down the power. These can be electrical switches or devices used to interrupt the flow of electrical current in a circuit. An important part of electrical safety, disconnect enclosures are usually made of tough materials like carbon steel or aluminum. Benefiting from many of the same construction techniques found in the manufacture of enclosures in general, disconnect enclosures keep things where they belong when dangerous parts of the electrical system are being checked, repaired, or replaced.
The main reason for disconnect enclosures is to make sure that electrical circuits can be disconnected for safe work on them. They are outfitted with safe lockings to discourage people from getting into them who should not. And they are not just simple lock-and-key arrangements—many varieties of reliable locking systems, physical and electronic, are out there in the world.
Enclosures for disconnect switches are made with flexibility in mind. They can house uninterrupted switches (which can be fused or non-fused), and circuit breakers. And they come in different sizes and types to suit different installations. They can be wall mount or stand on the floor to cater to space and safety requirements.
