Thats nice to know.iwire said:IMO Russelctric is a Cadillac.
Great minds think alike and so do minds like ours. I have already ordered a box for the top of this so I can enter from the side.I had space issues for the 13- 4" EMTs but was able to use some gutters. Had I been able to come into the top it would have been no problem.
Sounds like I'm getting a cool new toy.brian john said:Russell Electric the bank vaults of ATS's.

ASCO once the best still, decent.

Russell Electric the bank vaults of ATS's.When asked ASCO will provide a very decent "self-certified" SCCR for use with many different breakers. We have had little problem finding an ASCO switch (although not the inexpensive ones) that was not rated with whatever breaker was required for selective coordination.
So far, 12 months and at least 3 jobs, I have never gotten anything except the published SCCR data from Russellectric. Still have not found a combination of any of their switch and breaker for selective coordination that meets fault levels above 22kA.
Remember selective coordination is a requirement for required "backup" systems, it is not just for hospitals.

I've had Russelectric ATS's provided as part of projects, and have not had any issues with SCCR's.
Even their most basic brochure for the basic switch has stand alone ratings without the need for upstream OCPD's.

With current limiting fuses upstream of the same size, you can get to 200,000A.
