Product Overview

The Load break tool is the original lightweight, easy-to-use portable load break tool for use with disconnects, cutouts, power fuses, and fuse limiters. It brings load-switching capability through 34.5 kV and 600 amperes nominal, 900 amperes maximum to your overhead distribution system. The Load break tool cuts installation and operation costs. There’s no need for load interrupters on each device. Switching procedures are simplified too . . . minimizing the duration and scope of outages. This rugged, reliable device interrupts with no external arc, meeting OSHA requirements for opening circuits under load.


Product Advantages

Safe Capacitor Switching Performance

Capacitor banks present unique challenges due to stored energy and transient currents. This tool is designed to manage those challenges effectively by safely interrupting load currents and containing the arc internally. The result is a controlled switching process that minimizes risk and enhances operator confidence.

Lightweight for Field Efficiency

Unlike heavier conventional tools, this Load Break Tool is engineered to be lightweight without compromising strength. Operators can carry and maneuver it easily across job sites, reducing fatigue during repeated operations and improving overall work efficiency.

Reliable Arc Containment

The internal arc-extinguishing chamber ensures that all arc energy is contained and dissipated safely. This eliminates external arc exposure and significantly reduces the risk of equipment damage or operator injury.

Minimized System Downtime

By enabling load breaking without requiring a full system shutdown, the tool allows maintenance and switching operations to be performed while maintaining service continuity, saving both time and operational costs.
