Eaton - P1-40 load break switches


Eaton's P1-40 load break switches bridge the gap between the maximum rated value of the previous P1 (32 A) and the lowest rated value of the existing P3 (63 A). This allows for a higher rated current in the compact format of the P1. The new P1-40 line is the ideal solution for machine control, automation, production lines, emergency shutdowns and main switches.


Key features & benefits:

  • Compact solution with a 40 A rated operating current that enables higher power applications. Makes your installation future-proof.
  • Various mounting and configuration options for a wide range of applications
  • Compatible with all existing P1 accessories
  • For connecting larger wire cross-sections to the additional earth and neutral terminals, a set of four fork terminals for main switches and switches in enclosures is included as standard.


Mounting options:

  • Single-hole mounting
  • Distribution box mounting
  • Flush-mounted and surface-mounted
  • Intermediate mounting
  • Surface-mounted in plastic enclosure
  • Surface-mounted in plastic enclosure with pre-mounted EMC screen
  • Surface-mounted in steel enclosures


Standards/guidelines:

  • IEC/EN 60947-3
  • IEC/EN 60204


Technical data:

  • Nominal operating current: 40 A
  • Nominal voltage: 690 V AC
  • Utilisation categories: AC-21, AC-22, AC-23 and AC-3
  • IEC/EN 60947 and IEC/EN 60204
