Accessories include add-on auxiliary switches that snap-on, add-on 4th/neutral pole, shafts, door interlock handles that are lockable with padlocks and touch protectors.

Handles and shafts for UL 98 Series disconnect switches are interchangeable with the Altech/Katko UL508 manual motor controller disconnects.
