Features, Benefits
and Functions
Cutler-Hammer Superior Design
Transfer Switch Characteristics
Unmatched Performance and Versatility
The Cutler-Hammer family of wall-
mount transfer switches offers
unmatched performance, versatility and
value for power switching applications.
At the heart of these designs is the
Cutler-Hammer Molded Case Switch,
designed specifically to meet UL 1008.
Superior Main Contact Structure
All Cutler-Hammer Wall-Mount Trans-
fer Switches meet or exceed the stan-
dards set forth in UL 1008 and UL 489.
No other transfer switch manufacturer
has met the rigid testing requirements
of this combination of standards.
Completely enclosed contacts add
a measure of safety and reliability.
It also ensures the integrity of the
contact assemblies and minimizes
the need for periodic maintenance
of the contacts, reducing downtime.
Fast, Powerful and Safe Power Switching
Mechanism
The power panel utilizes a unidirectional
gear motor mechanism. The power
panel can be operated manually under
a FULL LOAD.
Molded Case Switch Features

Totally enclosed contact assembly.
Optional Integral Overcurrent
Protection Capability
Optional Thermal-Magnetic or Electronic
Trip Units
For service entrance and other
applications, trip units can be integrated
into the power switching section.
This eliminates the need for separate
upstream protective devices, saving
cost and space.
