Meter Devices Test Switches<br />

Small Base Test Switches<br />

Reactive Volt-Ampere Metering<br />

Switches<br />

Small base test switches are made on Resiten ® bases.<br />

They are available in any combination of currents or<br />

potentials, front or back connected, with handle<br />

ganging for single throw capability as an option.<br />

Switch elements are the same as on large base test<br />

switches. These switches are used where physical<br />

space is at a premium.<br />

Single or Double Throw<br />

Test Switches<br />

Reactive volt-ampere metering switches are a doublethrow<br />

type that permits testing reactive meters as<br />

KWH meters by shifting the potential. Commonly<br />

known as “heel-and-toe switches”, they are available<br />

in two types: “make-after-break” in which the switch<br />

blade has a neutral position and leaves the first jaw<br />

before it enters the second jaw; and “make-before<br />

break” in which the blade enters the second jaw<br />

before it leaves the first jaw. All Meter Devices heel<br />

and toe switches are furnished “make-after-break”<br />

unless specified otherwise.<br />

Single or double throw switches of<br />

any number of poles are available<br />

in front or back-connected styles.<br />

Fusing provisions for a 30 or 60<br />

ampere fuse is also available.<br />

Fused Potential<br />

Switches<br />

Potential switches are available in<br />

single or multiple pole arrangements<br />

with provisions for<br />

mounting a 30 or 60 ampere fuse.<br />

Test switches are available in a<br />

front or back connected style, as<br />

shown above.<br />

Fuse Blocks<br />

Some utilities specify that where<br />

potential coils, telemetering<br />

circuits, or communication circuits<br />

are connected directly to a service<br />

without potential transformers,<br />

fuses must be used in the leads.<br />

Equipment protection and the<br />

presence of relaying devices may<br />

make the use of fuses advisable.<br />

The Catalog No. 101-1375 single<br />

pole Fuseholder Block here<br />

illustrated is for mounting on the<br />

primary bar of 600 volt current<br />

transformers.<br />

Unmounted Test<br />

Switches<br />

Meter Devices Unmounted<br />

Potential Test Switches can be<br />

supplied to meet your special<br />

requirements. These switches are<br />

available in single pole or ganged<br />

as two up to six poles, single<br />

throw, or double throw, front or<br />

back-connected. Illustrations are<br />

back connected.<br />
