The GS2AH260 is an external rotary handle for the TeSys GS range of disconnect switches, designed for right-side mounting on the enclosure door. It provides two handle positions — O (off) and I (on) — and is lockable in the O position for padlock-out/tag-out isolation procedures. The red handle on a yellow front plate signals the switch state at a glance, which is standard practice for lockable disconnect operators on industrial panels. Rated for switch currents of 630 A, 800 A, and 1250 A per IEC, this handle mates with the corresponding TeSys GS disconnect switch bodies in that current range. The IP65 rating means the handle assembly withstands hose-directed water and dust ingress — suitable for installation on the exterior of enclosures in washdown areas or dusty industrial environments.
Sourcing reality — obsolete, not gone
Schneider Electric lists the GS2AH260 as obsolete.
The 630-1250 A range covers the three common TeSys GS disconnect frame sizes. The handle does not carry a current rating itself — it is the mechanical operator for the switch body.
