What it represents

A lockable switch-disconnector combines an isolation-capable switching device with a documented locking provision. It appears in feeder isolation and maintenance arrangements where both the electrical and mechanical functions matter.

How to read it

  • Trace the lock provision to the specified handle or operating mechanism.
  • The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.

Information to show or reference

  • State switching duty
  • Identify open-position locking
  • Reference the handle assembly

A distinction that matters

A locking handle does not increase the switching or fault-interruption rating.
