Disconnect switches are essential safety devices that let you easily cut power to electrical equipment during maintenance or emergencies.
Fusible disconnect switches come with built-in fuses that protect circuits by breaking the power if the current gets too high, preventing damage.
Unlike fusible types, non-fusible disconnect switches simply stop the flow of electricity without fuse protection and are used where other safety devices are in place.
These switches improve workplace and home safety by allowing quick power shutoff, minimizing risks while servicing electrical systems.
You'll find disconnect switches in many settings—from factories to commercial buildings and homes—to safely isolate electrical equipment.
Choosing between fusible and non-fusible depends on your specific safety needs and the protection setup of your electrical system.
