Fuse disconnect switch product family
Fuse Disconnect Switches for Protection and Visible Isolation
Fuse disconnect switches place fuse protection at the same point as a switch or visible open point. Compare GWR high-voltage fuse type disconnects, RGW1 fuse-switch combinations, OFS-4A5 low tension fuse switches and low-voltage fused knife switches before sending an RFQ.
4 product typesGWR, RGW1, OFS-4A5 and LV fused knife switch options cover different voltage and fuse duties.
500 V to 36 kV rating coverageHigh-voltage and low tension fuse paths stay in one selection flow.
Updated Jun 29, 2026Visible copy and modal data were checked against the supplied product folders and catalog images.
Product types
Fuse Disconnect Switch Types by Voltage and Fuse Duty.
Start with voltage class and fuse package. GWR and RGW1 cover the high-voltage paths. OFS-4A5 covers the supplied 500 V low tension row, while the fused knife switch needs order-specific ratings.
FDS 0112/36 kV
GWR-12/36 Fuse Type Disconnect Switch
Outdoor AC high-voltage fuse type disconnect switch for distribution points that need fuse protection and visible isolation.
FDS 02HRC fuse type
RGW1-24/36 Fuse-Switch Combination
Outdoor AC fuse-switch combination using a disconnect blade, HRC fuse and operating mechanism in one assembly.
FDS 03500 V / 400 A
OFS-4A5 Low Tension Fuse Switch
Single-pole low tension fuse switch for outdoor installation with HRC fuse links and hook-stick operation.
FDS 04LV knife type
Low-Voltage Fused Knife Switch
Low-voltage fused knife switch with a manual handle and visible fuse positions.
Source basisProduct-family selector, not a single quoted model.
Use this page to choose the right fuse disconnect path. Final model, drawing release and quotation still depend on the rating and mounting data sent with the RFQ.
Application fit
High-Voltage Feeder, HRC Fuse and Low-Voltage Isolation Points.
Choose the equipment by protection point: outdoor HV feeder, fuse-switch combination duty, low tension HRC fuse switching or LV knife isolation.
Protection role
Decide whether the fuse and visible open point sit at the same location
Use this family when the fuse is part of the switching or isolation point. If the line only needs visible no-load isolation, compare the outdoor disconnect or air break switch pages instead.
GWR fuse type disconnect
Use when the project needs 12 / 36 kV outdoor fuse-disconnect hardware with fuse cutout data and visible isolation structure.
RGW1 HRC fuse and blade
Use when disconnect blade, HRC fuse and operating mechanism should be selected as one fuse-switch combination.
OFS or fused knife switch
Use OFS-4A5 for 500 V single-pole outdoor HRC fuse switching. Use the fused knife switch type for manual low-voltage board isolation.
Selection matrix
Compare Topology Position, Fuse Interface and Project Data.
Use the matrix to choose the branch first: GWR/RGW1 for high-voltage fuse points, OFS-4A5 for 500 V outdoor low-tension HRC switching, or LV fused knife switch when ratings must come from the order file.

Structure
Fuse Interface Structure, Operation and Mounting Inputs.
Once the voltage path is selected, check the fuse package, operating side and mounting interface against the drawing or panel layout.
Structure inputs
Check these four inputs before the model is released.
Fuse packageFuse cutout, HRC fuse, fuse link or fuse base.
Switching pathVisible open point, disconnect blade, knife contact or load-side branch.
Operating methodHook-stick operation, manual handle, mechanism and operating side.
Mounting fitPole, cross-arm, terminal pad, panel busbar and incoming side.
Variant handling
Voltage Ratings, Fuse Links and Breaking Duty Boundaries.
With the fuse package fixed, check voltage, current, breaking duty, fuse link and mounting arrangement against the physical structure.
Separate HV catalog rows from low-voltage fuse switch data.
GWR and RGW1 use 12 / 36 kV source rows. OFS-4A5 lists 500 V, 400 A, 80 kA IC and 12 kV BIL. The fused knife switch photo needs order voltage and current data.
Check fuse package and blade duty before release.
GWR is a fuse cutout path with visible isolation. RGW1 combines HRC fuse, disconnect blade and operating mechanism. OFS uses hook-stick operation and an HRC fuse clamp at the low tension point.
Review files
Project Review Files for Fuse Disconnect Switches.
The review file should separate product identity, catalog rating rows, structure checks and real project drawings. Catalog scans can support the review, but they should not stand in for outline drawings.
Confirm the exact fuse disconnect family
Use clean product photos to separate GWR, RGW1, OFS-4A5 and fused knife switch structures before ratings are compared.
Match voltage and current to catalog data
Use the 12 / 36 kV high-voltage rows, the 500 V low tension row or project data for the fused knife switch type.
Use real outline drawings only when available
Catalog scans and sample photos are not drawings. If no clean English outline drawing exists, request a factory drawing before release.
Keep fuse interface and switching duty in the same release file
Fuse cutout, HRC fuse, fuse link, knife contact, operating side, mounting layout and destination standard should be checked together.
Engineering selection
Engineering Selection Inputs for Fuse Disconnect Switches.
Lock the electrical path first, then check fuse package, switching duty and mounting interface against the site drawing.
GWR/RGW1: 12 / 36 kV feeder points. OFS-4A5: 500 V outdoor LT. Fused knife: LV panel or board use.
Fuse cutout, HRC link, fuse base or knife contact decides the product path.
Keep load break, loop, cable charging, IC and short-time withstand values in separate rows.
Cross-arm, terminal pad, busbar, incoming side and operating side must match the drawing.

FAQ
Fuse Disconnect Switch Selection FAQ.
What is a fuse disconnect switch?
A fuse disconnect switch places fuse protection at the same point as a switch or visible open point. On this page the term covers HV fuse type disconnects, RGW1 fuse-switch combinations, OFS-4A5 low tension fuse switches and LV fused knife switches.
How should I choose between high-voltage and low-voltage fuse disconnect switches?
Start with the system voltage and installation point. Use GWR or RGW1 for high-voltage outdoor distribution points, OFS-4A5 for 500 V low tension outdoor fuse switching, and the fused knife switch when the project needs low-voltage manual knife isolation.
Is the low-voltage fused knife switch fully specified in the supplied material?
No. The supplied folder provides product imagery only. Verify voltage, current, fuse type, mounting layout and operation side before treating it as a model-specific selection.
When does RGW1 fit better than GWR-12/36?
Use RGW1 when the project needs a fuse-switch combination with disconnect blade, HRC fuse and operating mechanism. Use GWR-12/36 when fuse type disconnect hardware and catalog fuse cutout data are the better fit.
Is this equipment a circuit breaker replacement?
No. This page is for fuse disconnect, fuse-switch combination and fused knife switch selection. Fault interruption, load switching and isolation duties must be checked against the exact model data.
What information should be sent with an RFQ?
Send the product family, system voltage, rated current, fuse type or fuse link, breaking duty, operating method, mounting layout, site conditions, quantity and destination standard.
