Square D 2510KG1B – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Square D 2510KG1 manual motor switch provide motor overload protection?
No. The 2510KG1 is a manual motor switch, not a manual starter with overload relays. It gives simple toggle On/Off control for applications where overload protection isn't required or is supplied separately, upstream or in the panel. If the motor needs running overload protection, you need a manual starter with melting alloy or bimetal overload units instead of this switch.
2) What size motor will a Square D 2510 Series 30A 2-pole switch handle?
Horsepower ratings run 2 HP at 115V AC and 2 HP at 230V AC single phase, and 3 HP at both 460V AC and 575V AC. On DC it's 1 HP at 90V, 2 HP at 115V, and 1.5 HP at 230V. The switch itself is rated 30A with a 600V AC / 230V DC system voltage rating, so the horsepower figure, not the amp rating, is the limit you size to.
3) Can I mount this Square D toggle motor switch outdoors or in a washdown area?
No. The enclosure is NEMA 1 general purpose, plastic, surface mounting, which means indoor dry locations only. Dust, water spray, oil or outdoor exposure calls for a NEMA 3R, 4 or 4X enclosed switch instead. NEMA 1 provides no protection against liquids.
4) What conduit knockouts and wire sizes does the 2510KG1 accept?
Knockouts are 0.5 inch and 0.75 inch on both the top and bottom of the enclosure, so you can run conduit in either direction or feed through. Terminals take AWG 14 through AWG 10 copper conductors, which covers 30A circuits in copper at typical branch sizing. If your feeder is larger than 10 AWG, this is not the device for that circuit.
5) Can this be used as a disconnect for a three phase motor?
It's a 2-pole device, so it switches two conductors only. That suits single phase motors and 2-wire DC loads. A three phase motor needs all three legs opened, which takes a 3-pole switch. The 3 HP ratings at 460V and 575V here are for the 2-pole configuration as published, not a substitute for a 3-pole disconnect on a three phase feeder.
6) Is there a difference between the Square D 2510KG1 and the 2510KG1B?
Two styles are offered: the standard 2510KG1 and the B style 2510KG1B. Both are the same 2-pole, 30A toggle-operated manual motor switch in a NEMA 1 enclosure. Order by the exact part number your drawing or existing device calls out so the style matches.
7) Does the switch have a light so I can tell if the motor is energized?
Yes, a red pilot indicator light is built in, rated 230V, giving On/Off status at a glance. It's a local signaling light on the cover, useful where the motor itself is out of sight or out of earshot. Note the 230V rating on the indicator when you're deciding what control voltage you're switching.
8) Is the Square D 2510 Series manual motor switch UL Listed and CSA certified for inspection?
Yes. It is UL Listed under File E42243, CCN NLRV, and CSA Certified under LR25490, Class 3211 05. It is also RoHS EUR in scope. Those file numbers are what an inspector or spec reviewer will want for a code compliant installation.
9) Will this switch reverse a motor?
No. The starter type is non-reversing, so it's single direction On/Off control only. Reversing a motor requires a reversing switch or a reversing starter with interlocked contacts. Using this device for reversing duty isn't possible.
