The Chance Company warrants all products sold by it to be merchantable (as such term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) and to be free from defects in material and workmanship. Buyer  
must notify the Company promptly of any claim under this warranty. The Buyer's exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty shall be the repair or replacement, F.O.B. factory, at the Company's  
option, of any product defective under the warranty which is returned to the Company within one year from the date of shipment. NO OTHER WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESS OR ARISING BY  
OPERATION OF LAW, COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE OF TRADE OR OTHERWISE IMPLIED, SHALL EXIST IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMPANY'S PRODUCTS OR ANY SALE OR USE  
THEREOF. The Company shall in no event be liable for any loss of profits or any consequential or special damages incurred by Buyer. The Company's warranty shall run only to the first Buyer of a  
product from the Company, from the Company's distributor, or from an original equipment manufacturer reselling the Company's product, and is non-assignable and non-transferable and shall be of  
no force and effect if asserted by any person other than such first Buyer. This warranty applies only to the use of the product as intended by Seller and does not cover any misapplication or misuse of

Application and Ratings  
TheChanceunitizedD7isadistribution-level,gang-operated,side-breakswitchfor15through  
38 kV applications. It is pre-assembled, adjusted, and mounted on a common support at the  
factory for three-phase service. D7 switches meet a continuous-current rating of 600 amperes,  
a momentary rating of 40,000 amperes, a three-second short time current rating of 25,000  
amperes, and applicable NEMA and ANSI standards. It is available in 15 kV (110 kV LIW*),  
27 kV (150 kV LIW*), 34.5kV (150kV LIW*) or 38 kV (200 kV LIW*). The D7 is a 600-ampere  
loadbreakswitchwiththeDuogap® expulsioninterrupters.WiththeDuogap,theD7iscapable  
of switching load currents up to 600 amperes, with full recovery voltage across the switch,  
and interrupting transformer magnetizing and line-charging currents. This switch may be  
used for disconnecting, line sectionalizing, circuit breaker bypassing, and isolating.  
*Lightning Impulse Withstand (BIL)  
Convenient Installation  
Field installation time of this pre-assembled switch is greatly reduced below what is usually  
required to install separate gang-operated distribution level switches. The three-phase unit is  
conveniently raised in one piece to its mounting position, secured to the pole, control sections  
attached, and field adjustment made. Proper synchronization and phase spacing have been  
made at the factory. Unitized switches are installed in 2 to 4 hours, compared to non-unitized  
switches that take 6 to 8 hours.  
One-lift installation cuts  
time and cost of separate  
gang-operated,distribution-  
level switches.

Type D7 Switches Unitized  
15 to 38 kV

Design Features  
The jaw socket and hinge terminal castings of the D7 are bronze with  
tin-plated NEMA terminal pads. The blade is a round tubular copper  
withattenedendstoallowforasilver/coppercontact.Afour-pointsilver  
plated contact is supplied on the jaw end to make the switch easier to  
open and close. An all-copper current path is provided.  
Interrupters  
Chance Duogap® expulsion interrupter converts any D7 to a loadbreak  
switch. Built-in sockets on each switch accept the interrupter. The  
Duogap may be ordered with the switch or may be hotstick-installed  
for load management conversion. For more on the Duogap, see Bulletin  
No. 14-9405.  
Chance 15.5, 27 and 38 kV Duogap expulsion  
interrupters .  
Terminal Pads, Arcing Horns  
Two-hole NEMA terminal pads are standard. The D7 terminal pads  
are bronze with tin-plating to provide low-resistance efficient current  
transfer.  
A stainless steel arcing horn is provided to pick up load current, thus  
preventing burning or arc pitting on the main contacts.  
Insulators  
The Vee configuration of the insulators simulates a low profile with less  
bulk and a pleasing visual appearance. The gray-tone insulator for the  
unitized D7 switch is NEMA 3-inch BC.  
15 thru 34.5 kV Switch Base and Bearings  
The base castings consist of high strength, high corrosion resistant  
aluminum alloy. This lightweight aluminum is comparable to bronze in  
almost all metal technical categories, such as: ultimate tensile, tensile  
yield,elongation,hardness,modulusofelasticity,thermalconductivity,  
and electrical conductivity. Bearings are high-strength, high-density  
Delrin, for smooth pivotal action.  
Conductorsaredead-endedtoeachindividualswitchbase.Pull-offholes  
are designed for a 6,000-lb. working load rating. The switch frame is  
limited to an unequal loading of 700 lb.  
Common Support  
The 4 x 4-inch common support member is furnished in either galva-  
nized-steel or fiberglass tubing. The “interphase” shaft which connects  
the three rotating insulators is constructed of the same material as  
the crossarm.  
Controls  
Controls are either all metal or metal with a vertical fiberglass section.  
Three options combine the metal or insulated interphase shaft with the  
metal or fiberglass common support.  
The arcing horn will pick up load current upon  
closing to prevent burning or arc pitting on the  
main contact surfaces.

Type D6 Switches Non-Unitized  
15 to 38 kV  
600 Amperes  
Application and Ratings  
The Chance Type D6 is a distribution-level, gang-operated,  
side-break switch for 15 through 38kV applications. D6  
switches meet a continuous-current rating of 600 amperes,  
a momentary rating of 40,000 amperes, a three-second short-  
time current rating of 25,000 amperes, and all applicable  
NEMA and ANSI standards. It is available in 15 kV (110 kV  
LIW*), 27 kV (150 kV LIW*) and 38 kV (200 kV LIW*). The  
unit is a 600-ampere loadbreak switch with Duogap® expul-  
sion interrupters. Each switch comes prefitted with a socket  
to accept the Duogap. Orders also may specify switches come  
without the interrupters. With the Duogap, D6 is capable of  
switching load currents up to 600 amperes, with full recov-  
ery voltage across the switch, and interrupting transformer  
magnetizing and line-charging currents. The D6 switch may  
be used for disconnecting, line sectionalizing, circuit breaker  
bypassing, and isolating.  
The Sky-Glaze® insulator is gray porcelain NEMA 3-inch  
BC.  
Blade Opening  
All side-break D6 switches open in the counter-clockwise  
direction.  
Design Features  
D6 jaw socket and hinge terminal pads are bronze castings  
with stainless steel supports. The blade is round tubular cop-  
per with flattened ends to allow for a silver/copper contact.  
Silver contacts are used to ensure smooth, easy operation.  
Terminal Pads, Arcing Horn  
NEMA-standard, two-hole terminal pads accept aluminum  
or bronze connectors. Tin-plated bronze D6 pads reduce  
resistance to assure efficient current transfer. A stainless  
steel arcing horn picks up load current, preventing burning  
or arc pitting on the main contacts.  
Bases and Bearings  
The switch base for 38 kV (200 kV LIW*) is galvanized-steel  
hat-section. A sealed, greaseless main bearing supports the  
rotating insulator. The stainless-steel balls are encased in a  
high-strength, heat-treated aluminum housing for mainte-  
nance-freeoperation.Theswitchbasefor15kV(110kVLIW*)  
and 27 kV (150 kV LIW*) is extruded aluminum channel and  
the bearings are high-density Delrin.  
Interrupters  
Chance Duogap® expulsion interrupter makes the D6 a  
loadbreak switch. Built-in sockets on each switch accept the  
interrupter. The Duogap may be ordered with the switch or  
may be hotstick-installed for load management conversion.  
For more on the Duogap, see Bulletin No.14-9405.  
Insulators  
15 kV (110 kV LIW*) Switch Phase 27 kV (150 kV LIW*) Switch Phase 38 kV (200 kV LIW*) Switch Phase  
Alternate Mounting Arrangements  
The standard D6 switch design allows for a multitude of mounting and control configurations. The switch can be mounted  
horizontally or vertically. Controls can be installed on any side of the pole or off the switch ends for structure mount.  
Some common configurations are shown below. Consult factory for other requirements.
