British Standard 45A Glass DP switch – an air conditioning and cooker glass double pole isolator made with cardboard, glass or aluminum aim.
The DN71327 is a UK standard 45A glass DP switch made specifically for the highest
power fixed appliance circuits in domestic and commercial properties. The glass air switch and the glass cooker switch are both DP isolators that interrupt both live and neutral conductors at the same time – such disruption of the live and neutral lines is required to ensure safety of the electric cooker, instantaneous shower, AC or any heater used for industrial purposes. The glass panel adds premium touch, while the DP mechanisms guarantee safe isolation of the electricity. The design of the entire product includes three panel materials – PC panel for high-volume production, tempered glass for luxurious interiors, and aluminum for industrial styled products. The red copper switch mechanism features Ф3.0×25mm silver alloy touching switching cathode handling 45A and is guaranteed not to create arcs during its operation. There are two options of a middle plate – steel and plastic-coated steel. The product is certified according to IEC and is made for UK standard requirements with the warranty of 12 years.
Our factory-direct glass air conditioner switch manufacturing company provides competitive wholesale prices, OEM branding on any type of panel material, and a warranty lasting for 12 years on our DN71 series line.
45A DP Isolation — The Correct Glass Specification for Cookers, Showers & Air Conditioning
The glass air conditioning double pole isolator switch is the correct choice where UK & Commonwealth wiring regulations state that a locally mounted fully disconnection point is needed for high-powered systems. The 45A glass isolator switch is required for electric cookers and ranges taking up to 11KW of load as it isolates in full glass form ensuring safety in maintenance and emergencies. The immediate electric shower system gets to ensure that full disconnect is done of both live and neutral circuits before its repairs begin. In terms of air conditioners and fixed HVAC machines, the glass isolator switch acts up as a visible check point that the system is off thus offering easy confirmation. This 45A copper bus bar with silver coated automatic contact point facilitates the handling of the heavy arc power that occurs during making and breaking operations. The middle steel plate adds rigidity and structural strength to the overall design with a slim 88×86 mm glass body. Certified based on IEC standards and hence suitable in the UK.
Matching the DN71 Series — 45A Glass DP Switch in PC, Glass, or Aluminum
The DN71 series contains this tempered glass aluminum DP switch, which has the same dimensions of 88×86 mm and comes in the same three finishes as the DN71 glass switches, DN71 doorbell switches, and 20A DP switches. Moreover, the DN71327 glass cooker as well as shower isolation switches can be installed with DN71 glass switches and DN71 20A switches in the same room. Everything is designed in the same style including the glass panel profile and the skin tone to match all the switches. The sizes of 88×86 mm correspond to the dimensions of the usual British box.

45A vs 20A Glass DP Switch: Choosing the Right Isolator for Cookers, Showers & Air Conditioners
A practical guide to selecting the correct glass DP switch rating for high‑power fixed appliance circuits with premium glass finish.
Where Is a 45A Glass DP Switch Required?
The UK and the Commonwealth laws for wiring demand that a 45A DP isolator be used on circuits serving the greatest residential and industrial devices. An electric range that works on 11kW must have a DP switch with a rating of 45A at the user’s disposal. Instant electric showers need to be completely isolated by double-pole switches in order for proper maintenance to be carried out. The DN71327 glass air conditioner switch implements double-pole isolation. The proper DP switch for a circuit protected by a circuit breaker rated 32, 40, or 45 A is a switch rated 45A, and a 20A DP is unsafe and non-compliant.
Panel Material Selection — PC, Tempered Glass, or Aluminum?
PC panel: High-value and long-lasting with headwave-like finish – an ideal solution for kitchens and commercial projects. Tempered glass: A superior choice with a polished texture and fingerprint resistance ideal for premium homes and hotels where the cooker or shower isolator is exposed. Brushed aluminum: Smooth steel vision – scratch-resistant and perfect for contemporary commercial kitchens and residential designs. All three share the same dimensions of 88×86 mm, 45A DP mechanism, and a long-lasting guarantee of 12 years.
Wiring & Installation
The DN71327 has three main terminals which has electricity coming into it, going out of it, has electricity coming and going out of it, and a separate terminal for earth continuity. The 45A noted in this connection requires the use of proper sized supply cable. Normally, a cable that is 10mm² is used for ovens while a cable that has a capacity of 10mm² or 6mm² is used for showers depending on how long the cable is and how the cable is installed. It is necessary to secure the connections to ensure that the whole amperage of 45A is available without overheating. The equipment fits into a standard British 86 mm back box but a deep box of 47 mm is advisable for 45A circuit connections.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 45A glass DP switch used for?
The glass DP switch of 45A capacity is primarily used for circuits with fixed appliances that require complete isolation of live wires as well as neutral wires, including electric cookers and ovens, shower heaters, air conditioners and machines used in kitchens. The DN71327 British Standard 45A glass double-pole switch has been developed for complete disconnection of the power.
What is the difference between a 45A and 20A glass DP switch?
The current rating is the main differentiating factor. The 45A glass DP switch (DN71327) manages circuits rated for no more than approximately 11kW which is required for electric cookers, showers, etc. The 20A glass DP switch (DN71324) controls circuits rated for less than approximately 4.8kW which is enough for water heating units and basic kitchen appliances. The 45A model is equipped with sturdier internal contacts and bus bars, because of the more severe current load. Both models have the same glass panel measuring 88×86mm having nice touch cover.
Can this glass DP switch be used as an air conditioner isolator?
Undoubtedly, the DN71327 has been manufactured explicitly as a glass air conditioner switch and DP isolator for fixed HVAC equipment. It satisfies the legislation stipulations concerning local points of total disconnection in connection with air conditioning circuit. The appliance has a rating of 45A, permitting it to work with large-scale air conditioning equipment. The tempered glass provides a premium and elegant finish that matches DN71 glass light switches used all over the building.
What panel materials is this 45A glass DP switch available in?
The DN71327 comes in three high-end finishes: polycarbonate (a durable polish product that is inexpensive), tempered glass (a surface that does not show fingerprints therefore it is perfect for luxury kitchens), and brushed aluminum (great scratch-proof property). The three finishes have the same dimensions: they are 88×86mm and 45A DP mechanism.
