Published source values include 50 Hz, 20 mm, 2001. Confirm the exact row and unit in the original technical table when preparing the RFQ.

Confirm system voltage, earthing arrangement, installation altitude, pollution level and required operating duty with the project engineer before final selection.

Selection checklist

Prepare the Isolating-Switch RFQ

Define the system voltage. State nominal system voltage, rated voltage and insulation-coordination values.
Match continuous and short-time duty. Confirm rated current, short-circuit withstand current, peak withstand current and duration.
Choose the arrangement. Identify single-pole or three-pole construction, operating mechanism and rod length where applicable.
Specify installation hardware. Confirm mounting bracket, terminal clamp, line connection, operating eye and crossarm arrangement.
List documents and quantity. Include standard edition, drawings, test evidence, packing quantity, destination and required delivery schedule for quotation.

Configuration and supply boundary

Review the GW13-15 Configuration

The target source lists selectable hardware and material options. State each option explicitly so the quotation reflects the intended field installation.

Electrical coordination

Confirm rated voltage, current, impulse withstand, power-frequency withstand and leakage distance against the project study.

Operating hardware

Depending on the model, specify operating mechanism, arcing-distinguishing chamber, operating rod length, loadbuster hook or self-locking mechanism.

Materials and corrosion protection

The source lists silver-plated copper terminals and blades, porcelain or polymer insulators and hot-galvanized steel bases. Confirm the selected combination.

Commercial boundary

Quantity, packaging, delivery schedule, private label and project documents remain subject to technical review and quotation.
