This is the IMO IS4P80 80A 4-Pole Enclosed Rotary Isolator – a IP65 Rated Industrial AC Disconnect available at SparksDirect for the best price. Purchase this item with confidence at Sparks today.
The IMO IS4P80 is a premium, surface-mounted rotary switch engineered for the manual isolation of high-power electrical circuits. With a powerful 80A rating, it is capable of switching all three phases and the neutral simultaneously, making it an essential safety component for large-scale industrial machinery, commercial PV farms, and heavy-duty HVAC systems. The unit is housed in a high-impact, flame-retardant polycarbonate enclosure with an IP65 rating, ensuring total protection against dust and high-pressure water jets.
The IS4P80 is built for safety and ease of use in professional environments. It features an interlocked lid that cannot be removed while the switch is in the "ON" position, preventing accidental contact with live internals. The high-visibility red and yellow handle is padlockable in the OFF position, supporting robust Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) procedures. Due to its high current rating, the enclosure is significantly larger than lower-amperage models to provide the necessary "bend space" for thick, heavy-gauge cables.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size cables can I use with this isolator?
A: The IS4P80 features heavy-duty terminals that can accommodate cables up to 35mm². The large enclosure provides the required room to maneuver these stiff, thick conductors during installation.
Q: Is this suitable for isolating a large 30kW motor?
A: Yes. The IS1P80 is specifically rated for 30kW at 415V under the AC23A category, making it ideal for large industrial pumps, extractors, and compressors.
Q: Can it be installed outdoors in a coastal area?
A: Yes. The IP65 rating and UV-stabilised polycarbonate construction make it highly resistant to salt spray, rain, and harsh sunlight, provided that the cable glands used are also correctly rated for the environment.
Who can install this?
Installation must be performed by a qualified industrial electrician. Managing an 80A supply requires working with heavy-gauge cables (up to 35mm²). Precise terminal torque is absolutely critical; at 80A, even a minor loose connection can cause extreme heat buildup, melting the enclosure or causing an electrical fire. The installer must also ensure that heavy-duty M25 or M32 cable glands are used to maintain the environmental seal.
What is this for?
The IMO IS4P80 is the professional choice for Heavy-Duty AC Isolation:
- Commercial Solar PV: Serving as the main AC disconnect for high-capacity solar inverters before the point of connection to the distribution board.
- Large Industrial Motors: Providing a dedicated, localized safety disconnect for machinery, shredders, and large-scale industrial fans.
- Commercial Building HVAC: Isolating the main power supply for large rooftop chillers and cooling towers.
- Industrial Kitchens: Acting as the primary isolator for multiple high-powered commercial ovens or industrial-sized dishwashing systems.
