These single pole switches are used for synchronous closing of capacitor banks to reduce in-rush currents. It is available with two terminal pad orientations. With the terminal pads perpendicular to the length of the switch, it is used with the two pole 15kV 600A switch to switch capacitor banks at zero voltage. The switch with the longitudinal terminal pads is used in three phase sets to switch capacitor banks at zero voltage.
These switches contains one form A (e.g. normal open) and one form B (e.g. normal closed) auxiliary contact. The required controls are shown starting here and here. The repair parts are the same as for the three pole 15kV switch and are found beginning here.
