Part Number: 1SCA022872R0790
Quick Summary
OT1250E03CP Change-over switch is a heavy-duty, 3-pole device that provides fast, reliable power transfer for mission-critical industrial feeders. In downtime-prone environments, manual switching risks contact wear, arcing, and delayed transfer, affecting الإنتاج continuity and uptime. This ABB unit supports 1250 A at 380–415 V, 500 V, and 690 V, with a front-operated mechanism and a lockable 0-position, plus a door interlock to prevent accidental transfer. The included shaft and bolt set simplify cable connections, while the black IP65-rated handle adds rugged reliability in harsh environments. With CE declarations, a DNV certificate, and RoHS/Reach compliance, the product meets essential regulatory requirements. For OEMs and maintenance teams, it offers robust safety, compliance, and cost-of-ownership benefits in industrial switchgear and control-panel assemblies.

FAQs
Verify base-mount compatibility and confirm that screw terminals match your panel wiring. Ensure the 50 mm terminal width is suitable for your busbar spacing, and plan for the 50–75 N·m tightening torque per terminal. Check that the 3P configuration aligns with your system voltage (380–415 V, 500 V, or 690 V) and that the shaft, bolt set, and lockable handle are accessible in the intended installation.
The OT1250E03CP is rated for 1250 A across multiple voltage regimes (380–415 V, 500 V, 690 V). It provides a 12 kV rated impulse withstand and 1000 V rated insulation voltage. Short-time withstand current is 50 kA for 1 second (Icw). Power handling per pole is 29 W at rated conditions, and it supports several operational current ratings (IE) across AC-21A, AC-22A, AC-23A, AC-31B, and AC-33B.
Yes. The 3P, 1250 A configuration, with front operation and a robust locking mechanism, makes it well-suited for motor control centers and critical process lines. The device supports open-transition switching and is designed for high-current feeders, offering reliable power transfer with enhanced safety and straightforward panel integration.
The switch carries a CE Declaration of Conformity, along with a DNV certification. Environmental and material compliance are evidenced by RoHS information and Reach declarations, plus a CMRT for supply-chain transparency. This combination supports regulatory alignment, procurement validation, and sustainability reporting.
Lockable 0-position and door interlock enhance maintenance safety by preventing unintended transfers, reducing risk and downtime. Base mounting with screw-terminals simplifies service and retrofits, lowering installation cost and time. The high-current rating and robust construction deliver long service life with predictable performance, contributing to lower total cost of ownership and improved plant availability.
