Eaton 7949 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a standard padlock fit the Eaton 7949 switch lever guard?
The Eaton 7949 switch lever guard has 0.25 inch padlock holes, so any padlock with a shackle diameter of 1/4 inch or less will pass through. Most standard lockout/tagout padlocks use a 1/4 inch shackle, but heavy-duty padlocks with thicker shackles will not fit. Measure the shackle before you order a lock to pair with it.
2) Is the Eaton 7949 switch lever guard UL listed for use in electrical distribution equipment?
It is cULus Listed, which covers it for both US and Canadian installations. It also meets NOM-0190SCP8-1993 if you are specifying for a project that calls for the Mexican standard. For an institutional or MRO buyer standardizing lockout hardware across a facility, that is the compliance record on file for this part.
3) Does this Eaton guard lock a switch out, or just cover it?
Both. The Eaton 7949 shields the switch lever from accidental contact, and its 0.25 inch padlock holes let you apply a padlock so the handle cannot be operated at all. That is what makes it usable as part of a lockout/tagout procedure rather than just a splash guard. Without a padlock installed, it is a guard only, not a lockout.
4) What is the Eaton part number for this switch lever guard?
Order it as Eaton 7949. That is the manufacturer part number for the switch lever guard with 0.25 inch padlock holes.
