Vertical Break Switches

Versatile group-operated disconnect switch

Our robust Vertical Break Switches provide utilities operational reliability, safety assurance, and application flexibility.

Southern States’ latest innovation, the EV-2H, supports reliability through its unique design.  This heavy duty, highly efficient vertical break disconnect switch utilizes independent mechanical and electrical systems to produce the strongest possible design with the easiest accessible maintenance.  An over-toggle mechanism in both open and closed positions prevents the possibility for the blade to close in extreme weather and increases down force for high fault performance.  Metal-encased, coil-spring counterbalances reduce operating effort, are impervious to weather, and prevent catastrophic failure that is possible with linear springs.  Using an all stainless steel bearing also ensures a long life in all operating conditions.

Key Benefits:

  1. Heavy-duty, robust design
  2. Over-toggle mechanism is more resilient in extreme conditions
  3. Metal encasing and coil-spring counterbalances
  4. All stainless steel bearings for longer life
  5. Easy maintenance accessibility
  6. Backed by Southern States' 24/7 after-sales support and long-life engineering
