Switch fuses, also known as fused disconnect switches or switch-disconnectors, are electrical devices designed to provide a safe and reliable means of isolating electrical circuits or equipment from the power supply in compliance with BS 7671 (the IET Wiring Regulations) and other relevant standards. These devices incorporate fuses for circuit protection and can be manually operated to isolate power for maintenance, safety, or emergency purposes. Here are key features and considerations related to switch fuses in accordance with BS 7671:

Purpose: Switch fuses serve the dual purpose of disconnecting electrical circuits or equipment and providing overcurrent protection through the incorporated fuses. They are commonly used in applications where both isolation and circuit protection are required.
Voltage Rating: Switch fuses are designed for specific voltage levels, which should match the voltage of the electrical circuit or equipment they protect. They can be used in low-voltage (e.g., 230V) and high-voltage (e.g., 400V) installations.
Current Rating: The current rating of switch fuses should match the maximum expected current flow through the circuit or equipment. These devices come in various current ratings, such as 20A, 32A, 63A, and higher, depending on the application.
Isolation Function: Switch fuses provide a means of electrical isolation. They typically have an “on” and “off” position, allowing the electrical supply to be disconnected when in the “off” position.
Fuse Protection: Switch fuses incorporate fuses that provide protection against overcurrents, such as short circuits or overloads. The fuses are selected based on the specific circuit requirements and the type of protection needed.
Lockable Handles: Many switch fuses are equipped with lockable handles or mechanisms to prevent unauthorized access or tampering, enhancing safety and security.
Visible Switch Positions: These devices often feature clear and visible switch positions (such as “on” and “off”) to indicate the status of the electrical circuit, making it easy for personnel to identify whether power is connected or disconnected.
Mounting Options: Switch fuses are designed for various mounting options, including wall mounting, surface mounting, or panel mounting, depending on the installation requirements.
Compliance with Standards: Switch fuses should comply with relevant standards and regulations, including BS 7671, to ensure electrical safety and proper performance in electrical installations. Compliance ensures that the devices meet specific requirements related to isolation and protection.
Installation and Location: Switch fuses should be installed by qualified electricians in accordance with the wiring regulations. The installation location should be accessible and comply with any specific requirements outlined in the regulations.
Documentation: Proper documentation of the switch fuses’ location, purpose, and fuse ratings is essential for maintenance and safety purposes. Clear labeling helps personnel understand the function of the device.

Switch fuses are commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential electrical installations where both circuit isolation and overcurrent protection are required. Selecting and installing switch fuses in accordance with BS 7671 and any local regulations ensures compliance with safety standards and enhances electrical safety in the installation.
