What is the primary function of an MVL switch?

The primary function of an MVL switch, or Medium Voltage Load switch, is to conform to ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standards for metal-enclosed switchgear. These standards ensure safety, reliability, and the appropriate specifications for constructing and operating medium voltage electrical equipment. MVL switches are designed for use in environments where medium-voltage distribution is necessary, and they include features that guarantee compliance with such industry regulations.

By conforming to these standards, MVL switches ensure that they can be safely integrated into electrical distribution systems, supporting reliable service in various applications. This compliance is critical to maintaining safety protocols and ensuring proper operation within the electrical grid.
