Schneider Compact INS Switch Disconnector

Core Performance & Industrial Application

The Schneider Electric Compact INS is a load-break switch disconnector (isolator) for manual line isolation in low-voltage distribution systems.

It supports on-load switching and provides clear contact position indication for safe downstream maintenance.

It adopts rotary handle operation with fixed panel or DIN-rail mounting, suitable for AC and DC networks.

It offers rated operational current from 40A up to 160A in the INS40-160 frame, with 3P and 4P pole options.

It is widely used as spare replacement in distribution boards, motor control panels and feeder isolation cabinets.

Note: INS is a family; exact current rating, pole count and handle type depend on the full order code.
