Isolator nominal current

I have two new isolators in enclosures bought from a nationwide wholesaler. The isolators are not marked as to manufacturer or for nominal current. Apart from the statement on the cardboard box, their are no other markings. The installing contractor tells me that the only difference between the 32A and the 63A is the colour of the plastic on the spindle. Does anyone know if this is an acceptable means for a manufacturer to identify the nominal current rating of their product?

    Hi Lyle, presumably you are possibly referring to a rotary type isolator due to the reference to 32/63A rather than a dinrail type switch in an enclosure?


    The details are usually on a sticker inside the enclosure, as the stickers may get jet-washed off if they were on the outside :)


    Have you got a link or a pic?


    Cheers
