An on off switch is all that is necessary for powering a VFD. Anything else is gymnastics and unnecessary
Agreed. Leviton offers a 2 pole 30A switch that also saves a few dollars. https://www.amazon.com/Leviton-MS30...&sprefix=motor+control+switch,aps,134&sr=8-60I wouldn't interrupt the neutral, but that does look like a beefy switch
I couldn't think of any reason to interrupt the neutral either, then I couldn't think of any reason not to. For and extra $8.40 I would tend to go for complete isolation when the switch is turned off. But from a standard electrical standpoint the 2 pole should be plenty.I don't see the need to interrupt the neutral, but that does look like a beefy switch. The two pole is only 20$
I like the 3 pole switch. Is the thermal overload relay recommended by Automation Direct also overkill?
