Fixed and Drawout Magnum Transfer Switches

1.3 Magnum Fixed and Drawout Switching Devices

1.3.1 General Magnum Switching Device
The Magnum switching devices used in the Magnum transfer

switches are air switching devices utilizing an electronic tripping

system. They are available in both fixed and drawout versions,

both of which are used in the Magnum transfer switch depending

on the specific transfer switch ordered.

Table 2. Magnum Transfer Switch Configurations

All Magnum switching devices are 100% rated, Underwriters Lab-

oratories (UL) listed, and are built and tested in an ISO 9002 certi-

fied facility to applicable NEMA, ANSI, IEEE, and UL standards.

For more information on Magnum switching devices, consult the

Magnum switching device manual supplied with the transfer

switch.
The main difference between the fixed and drawout versions of

the Magnum switching devices used in the Magnum transfer

switch is the mounting method. Fixed switching devices are

bolted directly into the transfer switch frame while drawout

switching devices are mounted in an extendable carriage within

the transfer switch, allowing the switching device to be “drawn

out” for service, maintenance, and/or replacement.
