For institutions such as hospitals and data centers, quality and continuity of electricity supply is critical. Switchgear can help monitor and control power quality while back up generators rely on transfer switches to change over the power supply. C&K offers a number of snap acting switch options for both applications. For transfer switches, high current capacity switches used to actuate the switch include the miniature TM series rated to 15 A, the TF series rated to 21 A, the standard size HB series with capability to 20 A, and the standard size A series with capability to 30 A. All switches are UL certified and have numerous options for terminations and actuator styles. For auxiliary contacts used on low and medium voltage circuit breakers, in addition to the TM and TF series, customized solutions are available to meet specific customer design needs. DIP switches such as C&K’s coded rotary RTE series are also commonly used on electronic trip units.
