CHNT NH40 Series Switch Disconnectors & NH40SZ PC-class Automatic Transfer Switches
CHNT NH40 series integrates two core product types: single-throw manual isolating switches and NH40SZ dual-power automatic transfer switches (PC grade). Applicable to AC 50Hz circuits with rated voltage up to 690V, widely used in industrial low-voltage power distribution cabinets for circuit isolation, manual load switching, and automatic switching between mains and standby power supply. Complete current specifications cover 100A, 125A, 1000A, 1250A, with 3P/4P pole options and multiple operation modes.

Product Overview
CHNT NH40 series complies with GB/T 14048.3 and IEC 60947-3 standards, divided into two functional branches: single/double-throw manual isolating switches and NH40SZ PC-grade automatic transfer switches.
Model Code Definition
- Number after hyphen: Rated working current (100A/125A/1000A/1250A)
- Middle digit: 3=3-pole three-phase; 4=4-pole three-phase four-wire
- S: Manual double-throw changeover switch; SZ: PC-class automatic dual-power transfer switch; W: Cabinet external long handle operation (no W = internal cabinet handle)
Core Product Features
-
Manual NH40 isolating switch Adopt spring energy storage quick-break mechanism and double-break rolling contacts, with clear visible break points to meet electrical maintenance isolation safety standards. 100A/125A models support frequent load switching under AC-23A category; 1000A/1250A ultra-large current versions are only used for static power isolation, prohibited from breaking live load. Optional internal standard handle and W-type external long shaft handle for flexible cabinet layout.
-
NH40SZ PC-grade automatic transfer switch Integrate mechanical + electrical dual interlock to avoid simultaneous conduction of two power sources; adopt break-before-make transfer logic to cut off load during switching, fully complying with fire-fighting and critical power supply requirements. Built-in phase loss, overvoltage, undervoltage detection, automatically switch between mains and standby power, with manual emergency switching function reserved.
Application Scenarios
The whole series is widely matched with fuses, moulded case circuit breakers and shunt capacitors, applied in industrial factory distribution rooms, commercial buildings, fire-fighting power systems, hospital data rooms, pump stations, metallurgy and mining low-voltage complete sets of cabinets, providing safe isolation and reliable dual-power backup solutions for all kinds of power distribution loops.
