An isolator switch is an electric switch that is used to isolate or detach a portion of the electrical circuit from a power supply. These switches can be used in several applications at home and in commercial/industrial spaces. Many types of isolator switches are available in different shapes and sizes. An isolator is appropriate to use during no-load (off-load) situations. Generally, isolators are connected on both ends to the circuit breakers. These switches are beneficial in many situations. For instance, during voltage fluctuations, the isolator switches protect your devices. Also, they make it easy to isolate a device from power to support repairing or replacing electric equipment. Moreover, during accidental electric shocks, the isolator switches help ensure the safety of the devices.

1. What is an electric isolator switch?
An electric isolator switch is a safety device used to isolate an electrical circuit or equipment.
2. How does an isolator switch work?
An isolation switch acts as a circuit breaker on the main electrical supply. It supports the safe completion of electrical work in your house.
3. What are the different types of isolator switches?
4. Are isolator switches the same as circuit breakers?
An isolator switch is not the same as a circuit breaker because an isolator is an off-load device and it can function only when the current flowing is zero. So, an isolator switch works when the power supply is off. However, a circuit breaker is an on-load device that can operate even when the power supply is on.
5. How do I select the right isolator switch for my application?
An isolator switch can be selected by taking into consideration three different things - the static deflection, the isolators’ natural frequency, and the running frequency of equipment that is mounted on them.
6. What is the basic price range of an electric isolator?
The price of an electric isolator can vary from Rs. 300 to Rs. 2000 or beyond depending on the brand, star ratings, breaking capacity, number of poles, durability, etc.
7. How do I know if I need a single-pole or double-pole isolator?
For a power supply that is neutral and off-phase, a single pole is mostly required. However, a double pole breaker is required if the power supply is through a transformer at 110 volts per line with two live lines.
8. Are isolators suitable for both AC and DC circuits?
For direct current, DC isolator switches are used, while for alternating current, AC isolator switches are used. AC isolator switches are used for handling normal AC levels and higher voltage levels, while DC isolator switches are used for handling a constant voltage level and higher current levels.
