QO200 - 60 Amp Molded Case Switch

QO200 - 60 Amp Molded Case Switch

When your electrical system needs a dependable way to safely disconnect power, the QO200 molded case switch is a practical solution. Designed as a 2-pole, 60-amp Type QO molded case switch, this device gives you a reliable manual disconnect for 120/240VAC electrical systems where overcurrent protection is already provided elsewhere. Whether you're servicing HVAC equipment, isolating machinery for maintenance, or working within a compatible QO panel, the QO200 helps simplify the job with dependable switching performance and a compact design that fits easily into compatible load centers.

One important distinction is that the QO200 is a molded case switch—not a circuit breaker. It does not provide overcurrent or short-circuit protection. Instead, it's intended for applications where a dedicated disconnecting means is required while another protective device handles fault protection. With a 10kA interrupting rating at 120/240VAC, this switch is suitable for circuits delivering up to 240 volts AC, making it a dependable choice for residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical systems. Its straightforward design makes installation and future maintenance more convenient for electricians, contractors, and facility managers alike.
