With a 2000 A conventional free-air thermal current and three-pole configuration, the 1SCA103908R1001 handles high-demand feeders without sacrificing safety. The business impact is clear: predictable switching performance reduces arc exposure, minimizes nuisance trips, and extends component life in motors and feeders. In real-world deployments such as heavy equipment lines and data-center distributions, this reliability translates directly into less downtime and lower maintenance costs.Designed for front-operated control, the switch provides clear, intuitive operation and consistent mechanical feel. The standard top-in, bottom-out labeling simplifies wiring during panel assembly and reduces the risk of misconnection in busy builds.Base mounting and screw-terminal connections enable straightforward installation and robust long-term wiring. The 100 mm terminal width and specified tightening torque help ensure compliant torque during assembly, while the open transition type supports maintainable field servicing without disassembly of the enclosure.Safety features include a padlockable in the 0-position and door interlock in the I- and II- positions, supporting lockout-tagout practices. The black pistol-type handle adds ergonomic control, while the integrated shaft ensures reliable actuation even after years of use in industrial environments.Compliance documentation is reinforced by CE, RoHS, CMRT, and Reach declarations, plus a DNV certificate for critical applications. This documentation accelerates procurement approvals and simplifies compliance audits, while ABB EcoSolutions information guides end-of-life disassembly and environmental stewardship.From a logistics perspective, the device's 54.285 kg net weight and 73 kg packaged weight fit standard shipping workflows, with a package footprint compatible with rack and pallet handling. The combination of performance, installability, and compliance makes this model a practical choice for scale-up projects in switchgear and power distribution.
