Timeguard IS2N-16DC Weathersafe White 16A DC IP67 2-Pole Rotary Isolator Switch

Timeguard IS2N-16DC Description

The Timeguard IS2N-16DC DC Isolator Switch offers dependable isolation performance for DC power circuits up to 16 A, making it ideal for applications such as solar PV arrays, battery storage systems, EV charging infrastructures and general DC-powered installations. Built around a durable IP65 weatherproof thermoplastic enclosure, this 2-pole rotary isolator provides protection against dust ingress and water jets, allowing for indoor or external use in exposed environments.

Featuring on-load switch disconnectors for safe circuit breaking under load, a rotary handle with clear ON/OFF markings, and an interlocked front cover that can only be removed in the OFF position, the IS2N-16DC offers both operational safety and installer convenience. The enclosure also includes multiple M20 cable entry knockouts for flexible wiring configurations, while rising clamp terminals support up to 16 mm² cable sizes for robust connection. Manufactured to BS EN IEC 60947-3 and compliant with DC-PV1/DC-PV2 utilisation categories, this isolator is engineered for performance and compliance in modern DC installations.

Additionally, the switch includes guaranteed arc suppression under 5 ms, and a lockable handle option to help prevent unauthorised operation during maintenance or downtime — ideal for professionals seeking both safety and long-term reliability.
