Main Switches & Rotary Isolator Switches

Shop main switches and rotary isolator switches for consumer units, distribution boards, machinery, HVAC, EV chargers, garages and outdoor circuits.

Choose the device around its switching function, rated current, poles, utilization category, enclosure, locking requirement and whether it is suitable for isolation.

Quick guide: Main switches are commonly installed within boards; rotary isolators provide local disconnection near equipment. Product markings and manufacturer data determine whether a specific device is suitable for the intended isolation duty.

  • Board-mounted main switches: incoming isolation within compatible assemblies
  • Rotary isolators: local disconnection near equipment or circuits
  • Single and three-phase options: pole configurations for different supplies
  • Enclosed and lockable devices: products for defined maintenance and environmental needs

Main Switch or Rotary Isolator?

The correct choice follows the device location and duty. A board-mounted main switch provides incoming isolation for an assembly. A rotary isolator is commonly positioned locally so equipment can be disconnected for work or maintenance. Confirm suitability from the product markings and datasheet.

Main Switches

Typically installed in a consumer unit or distribution board. Check assembly compatibility, rated current, poles, terminal capacity and switching function.

Rotary Isolators

Provide visible local switching near machinery, HVAC, EV equipment or outbuilding supplies. Select the utilization category, poles and enclosure for the load and environment.

Meter & Supply Isolation

Isolation at the meter position has different ownership and installation considerations from a standard board main switch or equipment isolator.

Specification Checklist

  • Function: confirm isolation, switching or maintenance duty.
  • Load: select current rating and utilization category for the equipment.
  • Poles: determine which live conductors must be switched.
  • Environment: check enclosure, IP rating and mounting position.
  • Safe maintenance: assess locking and prevention of unintended re-energisation.
