Cooper Wiring Devices AH6810U – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Cooper AH6810U manual motor controller work on a three-phase motor?
No. The AH6810U is a two-pole, single-phase controller. Two poles switch the two legs of a single-phase circuit; a three-phase motor needs all three legs switched, so you want a three-pole manual motor controller instead. For 120/240V single-phase motors up to its 30A, 600V rating, it's the right device.
2) Does the Cooper AH6810U come with an enclosure or do I need to supply one?
It's a switch only, open configuration, built for panel mounting. There's no box or cover in the package. If the controller is going anywhere exposed, in a wet location, or on a machine frame, you need to provide the enclosure and a faceplate yourself. Inside an existing control panel or gang box, the open design is what you want.
3) What wire size can I land on the Cooper AH6810U terminals?
The terminals take #14 through #10 AWG, wired from the front with screws. That covers a 30A circuit on #10 copper, which is what the 30A rating will typically call for. Anything larger than #10, such as #8, won't fit the terminal, so you'd need a different controller or a terminal block ahead of it.
4) Is the Cooper AH6810U a motor starter with overload protection?
No. It's a manual motor controller, a two-position single-throw toggle that switches the circuit and holds position. There is no overload relay or heater element in it, so it provides no motor overload protection. If your motor needs running overload protection, pair it with a separate overload device or use a manual motor starter with built-in overloads.
5) Will the switch stay in position, or does it spring back when I let go?
It stays put. The AH6810U uses maintained closure and maintained contacts, so the toggle holds the position you put it in until somebody moves it back. That's what you want for an on/off motor disconnect or a local control station. For jog or momentary duty you'd need a spring-return switch instead.
6) Can I use the AH6810U as the disconnect switch at a piece of machinery?
For single-phase equipment within 30A at up to 600V, yes, it works as a manually operated on/off switching point in a control panel or local station. Two things to plan for: it mounts in a panel with no enclosure included, and it has no overload protection, so branch circuit overcurrent protection has to come from upstream breakers or fuses.
7) What is the exact part number and finish if I'm standardizing across several control panels?
The part is Cooper Wiring Devices AH6810U, a 30A/600V two-pole single-phase manual motor controller in black. One model covers the line, so repeat orders of AH6810U give you identical switches across every panel.
