Eaton DG223NRB General Duty Safety Switch - UL Listed
Part Number: DG223NRB
Quick Summary
The Eaton DG223NRB general duty safety switch protects three-wire, two-pole circuits up to 240 V. Engineers often struggle with fuse compatibility, enclosure protection, and installation in tight spaces. UL Listed, NEC 230.62 compliant barrier, and a NEMA 3R enclosure provide safety, code compliance, and weather-resistance. This solution leverages Class H fuses and fusible-with-neutral design to streamline stocking and panel builds, boosting uptime and maintenance planning. For panel builders and service teams, it simplifies specification and procurement without compromising protection. By meeting industry standards, it reduces risk during commissioning and supports long-term reliability in environmentally challenging installations. In practice, contractors gain predictable procurement cycles and fewer spare parts, translating to lower total cost of ownership. Its rugged construction and heritage of Eaton reliability help teams meet aggressive project timelines.

FAQs
The DG223NRB is a two-pole, three-wire disconnect designed for 240 V systems. It mounts in a NEMA 3R enclosure with a painted galvanized steel body, and uses fusible-with-neutral Class H fuses. Ensure enough clearance for the 7.38 in depth and plan for mounting within standard electrical panels to maintain proper barrier separation as per NEC requirements.
Key specifications include a 100 A amperage rating, 240 V voltage rating, Class H fuses, fusible with neutral configuration, and UL Listed certification. The enclosure is NEMA 3R with a 2-pole, 3-wire design, supporting general duty safety switch applications in commercial and light-industrial environments.
Yes. The DG223NRB uses a NEMA 3R enclosure with painted galvanized steel, which provides weather-resistance for outdoor or semi-exposed installations. Proper mounting and enclosure sealing are still required to maintain barrier integrity and prevent environmental ingress in adverse conditions.
The DG223NRB is UL Listed, and the design includes a NEC 230.62 compliant barrier. This combination supports compliance in building codes and electrical installations, ensuring a credible basis for safe operation in standard commercial and light-industrial panels.
The DG223NRB reduces downtime through reliable disconnects and minimizes spare-part variety with a single, standard 100 A safety switch solution. Its compatibility with Class H fuses and neutral fusion simplifies stocking, procurement, and maintenance planning, delivering a lower total cost of ownership over the panel’s life cycle.
