Double-End Break Switches

Versatile designs for high fault currents and ice-prone environments

Southern States’ double-end break substation disconnect switches have long served as the backbone of many utility systems. These durable, field-proven designs offer unmatched operational reliability, safety assurance, and application flexibility.

The RDA-1 and RDA-1V models represent the latest in switch innovation, purpose-built to tackle high fault current scenarios and environments with frequent ice formation. Their rotating blade and reverse loop contacts minimize phase spacing requirements, and the “V” style option allows for installation in space-constrained structures. Combined with a full suite of switch accessories, interrupting attachments, and both manual and motor operators, these switches are engineered to meet demanding utility needs — and supported by Southern States' commitment to 24/7 service and support.

Key Benefits:

1. Withstands high fault currents and performs reliably in ice-prone conditions
2. Compact “V” configuration fits tighter structure footprints
3. Rotating blade and reverse loop contacts ensure strong electrical performance
4. Designed for minimal phase spacing — ideal for dense substation layouts
5. Backed by Southern States' 24/7 after-sales support and long-life engineering
