The AC-22A rating (63 A at 230 V) covers switching of resistive and mixed loads up to that current — typical for heater banks, lighting circuits, or transformer primary isolation where inrush is moderate. The 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage (Uimp) per IEC 60947-3 ensures the gap holds under surge conditions common in industrial panels. Pollution degree 3 (conductive pollution) means the part is rated for environments where occasional condensation or light dust is present — standard for most enclosed electrical rooms. The suitability-for-isolation marking (visible OFF position, contact position indicator) means this switch disconnector provides visible air gap confirmation for safe maintenance lockout — a requirement for any panel where personnel need to verify the circuit is dead before working downstream. Mounts on standard DIN rail via a fixed clip. The tunnel-type terminals accept 1…35 mm² rigid or 1…25 mm² flexible cable — sized for the 63 A rating. The 2-module width (18 mm per pitch) means it occupies 36 mm of rail space, leaving room for busbar feed-through on top or bottom.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric A9S68163 iSW Switch Disconnector, 63A, 1P","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric A9S68163 iSW switch disconnector, 63A rated at 230 V AC, 1-pole, 2-module width, DIN rail mount.
