Summary & Introduction
Introduction
Southern States Type EC-2V is a three phase, group operated, center break “vee” air disconnect switch
constructed primarily of high strength aluminum. Applications for these switches included disconnecting
and sectionalizing of lines, and isolating or bypassing other electrical equipment. Poles can be mounted
in a horizontal “upright,” vertical, or under-hung position. The switch can be operated using a manual
operator or electrical motor operator (Operating Mechanism).
For easy installation, all models use jack screws which provide infinite adjustments and eliminate time
consuming shimming of insulator stacks.
The installation procedure for all mounting positions and operating schemes is similar and explained
herein. A system of pipes, bearing, and adjustable length arms is utilized to open and close the switch
from a ground level operator.
The instructions contained within this manual are necessary for the safe installation, maintenance, and
operation of the EC-2V switch. A qualified person, familiar with this of type equipment, should carefully
read and follow the instructions.
These instructions are intended to provide a general guideline for the installation, adjustment, and
maintenance of the EC-2V switch. It is not possible to cover all details, equipment variations, and
potential conditions. Contact Southern States, LLC in the event conditions associated with a specific
application are not sufficiently addressed.
