Allen-Bradley 1494G-BC3N-98-413 Enclosed Switch

Allen-Bradley 1494G-BC3N-98-413 Enclosed Switch is a 30-amp enclosed disconnect from the 1494G family, designed to safely isolate electrical circuits in industrial environments. This configuration combines a Type 4/4X enclosure (Enclosure Code C) with a stainless-steel handle (413) and a normally open auxiliary contact (98), delivering rugged weather- and corrosion-resistance along with signaling capability for control circuits. The device serves as a safety disconnect in motor control and automation panels, providing a code-compliant isolation point for service and maintenance. The 1494G family supports ratings from 30 to 600 A across multiple enclosure codes, and this variant targets 30 A operation with a 4/4X-rated enclosure, making it suitable for outdoor or harsh indoor locations where environmental protection is essential. Typical applications include isolating drives, controllers, and other industrial loads in manufacturing, packaging, and processing facilities, enabling safe maintenance procedures and clear shutdown points. Compliance notes in the 1494G family commonly reference standards such as UL 508, UL 98, and CSA C22.2 No.5, aligning with North American electrical-safety requirements for disconnect switches.
