Copper construction, field-proven performance and in horizontal and vertical designs.
Turner’s Type 1D side break switch is well suited for horizontal and vertical applications on the transmission system, as well as in the substation environment. Unlike many so-called transmission-switching products that are merely substation switches modified for use on the transmission system, the Type 1D is a true transmission switch. It is designed and built for the harsh environmental conditions, galloping conductors and constant pole movement inherent in severe aerial applications.

The Type 1D switch is designed as a stock switch, suitable for almost any application. The 1D switch mounting flexibility makes it ideal for horizontal or vertical configurations on poles, on platforms, or on substation structures.

A rigid, hard-drawn copper blade with patented locking device, silver-to-copper contacts, double-spring arcing horns and sealed hinge contacts provide heavy-duty construction. Turner Type 1D switches can be used for station isolating and bypassing, distribution and transmission line sectionalizing or isolating arrestors, metering equipment and other apparatus. Right hand or left hand opening can be specified at time of order. They are easily upgraded for automatic operation and load breaking.
