Mounting Disconnect Switch onto the Structure 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  Check mounting surfaces for unevenness. Switch bases will warp on uneven surfaces. Use 

shims under bases to level if necessary. 

 

  Bolt bases solidly to the structure. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rigging used to hit the poles should be attached to the base with steadying guides 

attached to prevent lipping of the switch pole. Do not lift the switch by attaching to 

the live parts. Lift the switch poles onto the structure, being sure the blade is in the 

closed position. Refer to the control arrange-ment drawing for proper placement of 

the switch on the structure.
