Load break switch ETI SV 116 1P 16A (2423121)

The ETI SV series load break switch is designed for manual switching of electrical circuits under load. It is used in distribution boards, switchgear assemblies, and other electrical installations where a circuit needs to be connected or disconnected without performing a protective function. Because this device does not provide overload or short-circuit protection, it is typically used together with separate protective equipment in the same installation. The SV 116 model has a 1P configuration, which means it is a single-pole device intended to interrupt one conductor in a single-phase circuit or in other layouts where one-pole disconnection is required. This design makes it suitable for controlling individual lines, local sections of a network, or specific functional circuits. The rated current of 16 A defines the operating load for which the switch is intended and supports its use in household circuits and low-power technical applications. As a load break switch, this device serves as a manual isolation and switching element rather than an automatic protective apparatus. It is relevant wherever the operator needs to disconnect a section of wiring for servicing, maintenance, or operational changes. In electrical panels, such switches help organize circuit management and provide a clear separation of the switched line from the rest of the installation. For selection and installation, the main technical parameters are the device type, the number of poles, and the rated current. In this case, ETI offers a single-pole switch rated at 16 A, which allows it to be integrated into compact electrical assemblies and simple control schemes. The SV 116 is therefore a functional switching solution for circuits that require manual load disconnection in a straightforward format.
