MindCore Technologies ADB is a station class double break switch, designed to utilize the high strength and lightweight characteristics of aluminum alloys, combined with silver brazed copper contacts, that are easily replaceable should it ever be required. The center insulator supports the blade and rotates, engaging the robust gear mechanism to operate the switch all to way to a 65˚ opening angle.

One of the key component for a double end break to operate is certainly its pivot. Since MindCore understands that everything is in the details, we choose among our sturdy pivot designs which is the one the best suited for the application. The ADB switch is an evolved kearney proven design and has been installed within the North American substations for the past 35 years.
