General Description
The insulated outdoor knife switch is a device used for voltage isolation and disconnection in overhead electrical distribution networks. It is also known as an Outdoor Isolator Switch, commonly used in medium-voltage lines.
Device Specifications
Type: Knife switch operated manually or with an insulation stick.
Installation: Mounted on electric distribution poles.
Insulation: Equipped with high-strength ceramic or polymer insulators that provide safe electrode separation and isolate conductors from the pole structure.
Operating Mechanism: Uses a metal blade (knife) that moves between two positions:
Closed Position (ON): The blade is in contact with the terminal.
Open Position (OFF): The blade is pulled away, providing clear and visible circuit isolation.
Features
Provides clear visual isolation of the line, enabling safe maintenance operations.
Withstands outdoor weather conditions such as heat, humidity, and rain.
Utilizes strong insulators that prevent current leakage or electrical arcing.
Simple design ensures easy operation and maintenance.
Applications
Isolating segments of distribution lines for maintenance.
Switching power feeds between lines.
Protecting networks by allowing technicians to isolate faulty areas.
Components
Copper or coated aluminum blades.
Ceramic or polymer insulators.
Galvanized anti-rust metallic frame.
Manual operating mechanism with the option for insulated stick operation.
