Disconnect switches are often used as main disconnecting devices in switchboards and even more frequently as feeder disconnects. Disconnect switches can serve as enclosures for overcurrent protection when they contain fuses. Disconnect switches can also be a part of a ground fault protection scheme when equipped with a shunt trip or a complete ground fault interrupter system that includes a shunt-trippable disconnect switch, ground fault monitor, sensor and relay.
