FAQs
The 4HD327N has a footprint of 29 in depth, 17 in width, and 9.5 in height, with a 30 lb weight. Plan for at least 12 inches of clearance on all sides to allow for service access, wiring, and interlock installation, ensuring safe maintenance and compliant electrical clearances per NEC guidelines.
Yes. The 4HD327N is designed as a heavy duty fusible safety switch for industrial protection and is suitable for installation in motor control centers, service entrances, and control panels, provided dimensional and interlock fit are confirmed with the existing enclosure and panel design.
It is UL Listed and complies with NEC 230.62 barrier requirements. UL Listing verifies safety and performance standards, while NEC-compliant barriers support code-compliant operator safety during maintenance and servicing in industrial facilities.
The fusible design provides controlled disconnection under fault conditions, reducing arc-flash risk and enabling safer de-energization for maintenance. This translates to safer lockout/tagout procedures and longer motor life by preventing unauthorised energisation during service.
Fusible switches offer built-in short-circuit protection and safer, more predictable isolation during fault events. They support improved equipment protection, easier coordination with protective relays, and better overall system reliability for industrial applications such as conveyors, pumps, and HVAC drives.
