Eaton DT223URH-N – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amperage ratings does the Eaton DT221URH-N double-throw safety switch family come in?
Three ratings: 30A (DT221URH-N), 60A (DT222URH-N) and 100A (DT223URH-N). All three are the same build, two-pole, non-fusible, general duty double-throw in a NEMA 3R painted galvanized steel rainproof enclosure. Size the switch to the service or generator feeder it sits on, not to the generator nameplate alone.
2) Can this Eaton double-throw switch be used as service equipment ahead of the panel?
Yes, the DT2xxURH-N double-throw switches are suitable for service entrance use, so they can be applied at the service point rather than only downstream. They are UL Listed. You still need to land the grounding and bonding per the local authority's service-equipment rules.
3) Is this Eaton transfer switch automatic or manual?
It is a manual double-throw safety switch, not an automatic transfer switch. Someone has to physically throw the handle to move the load from utility to generator and back. If you need the changeover to happen unattended on a power loss, you want a true ATS instead.
4) Will a two-pole Eaton DT double-throw switch work for a 120/240V single-phase generator hookup?
Yes. Two-pole, three-wire is the standard 120/240V single-phase arrangement: it switches both ungrounded conductors and carries the neutral through. It will not serve a three-phase service, which needs a three-pole switch.
5) Can this Eaton NEMA 3R safety switch be mounted outdoors on the side of the building?
That is what it is built for. The NEMA 3R enclosure is painted galvanized steel and rainproof, which covers exterior wall mounting next to a meter or generator. NEMA 3R is rain and sleet protection, not a washdown or dust-tight rating, so it is not the choice for corrosive or hose-down areas.
6) Do I need to add fuses to this Eaton double-throw switch?
No. The DT2xxURH-N switches are non-fusible, so there are no fuse clips and nothing to stock or replace. Overcurrent protection has to come from the breaker or fused device elsewhere in the system, since this switch only transfers and isolates.
7) Is a general duty double-throw switch good enough for a light industrial building?
General duty is the rating here, which covers standard commercial and residential transfer work, small multi-unit properties, offices and light industrial loads. For heavy industrial service with high fault current or frequent switching, a heavy duty switch is the better specification.
