Schneider DTU361 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Schneider DTU36 double throw switch be used as a manual generator transfer switch?
That is exactly what a double throw switch does. The DTU36 transfers a load between two power sources, utility and generator for example, and the mechanical design prevents both sources being connected at the same time. It is a manual switch, so someone has to be at the enclosure to throw it. It is also non-fusible, so overcurrent protection has to come from breakers or fused gear elsewhere in the circuit.
2) Does the Schneider DTU36 safety switch include fuses or fuse clips?
No. The DTU36 covered here is the non-fusible version, so there are no fuse clips inside and nothing to stock spare fuses for. Circuit protection must be provided upstream. If the design calls for fusing at the transfer point, you need the fusible version of the DTU36 series instead.
3) What amperage ratings does the Schneider DTU36 double throw switch come in?
Two: 30 A (catalog number DTU361) and 100 A (DTU363). Both are 600 VAC/VDC, 3-pole, NEMA 1. Size to the load being transferred, not to the generator nameplate alone.
4) Can the DTU36 safety switch be mounted outdoors?
No. NEMA 1 is an indoor general purpose enclosure, rated only against incidental contact and falling dirt. Rain, washdown or corrosive areas need a rainproof enclosure instead. The DTU36 series does include rainproof (RB) models for those locations.
5) How much wall space do I need for the Schneider DTU36 double throw switch?
Plan on an enclosure roughly 29.94 in high, 11.96 in wide and 6.93 in deep, plus working clearance in front per NEC. It is a tall, narrow box, so the height is usually what catches people out in a crowded electrical room.
6) Is the Schneider DTU36 switch UL listed for use in Canada as well as the US?
It carries cULus certification, which covers both US and Canadian requirements, so it can be specified on jobs either side of the border without a second listing.
7) What horsepower motor load can the DTU36 disconnect handle?
The switch is rated 30 hp. That makes it usable as a motor disconnect within that horsepower and within the 30 A or 100 A current rating of the version you pick.
8) Is the Schneider DTU36 heavy duty or general duty construction?
Heavy duty. That is the series it belongs to, which is the line spec'd for industrial and commercial service rather than the lighter general duty product used on residential and light commercial work.
9) Can the DTU36 safety switch be rebuilt or repaired in the field?
No, it is not a serviceable device. Treat it as a replace-on-failure item and keep that in mind for critical transfer points where you may want a spare on the shelf. Schneider lists an average life duration of 15 years for planning maintenance cycles.
10) Does the Schneider DTU36 meet RoHS and REACH requirements for a sustainability spec?
Yes on both. It is RoHS compliant under the EU directive and free of REACH Substances of Very High Concern above the threshold. It is also mercury free and free of toxic heavy metals, and Schneider classes it as a Green Premium product. Packaging is recycled cardboard with no single use plastic. Environmental profile document reference is ENVPEP2503028_V1.
11) Is the Schneider DTU36 made in the USA for Buy American jobs?
Country of origin on the DTU36 is the United States. Public projects with domestic sourcing language usually want documentation from the manufacturer on file, so request that with the submittal package.
