Schneider Electric VZ17 Shaft With Zero Position

Schneider Electric VZ17 Shaft With Zero Position is a 300 mm shaft extension accessory for TeSys Vario switch disconnectors that transmits door-mounted operation to the internal switch body while preserving precise position alignment. Manufactured by Telemecanique (Schneider Electric) and cataloged as TeSys Vario VZ, this shaft extension extends the operating shaft between a door-mounted handle and the switch, supporting door interlocking in panels where the switch body is mounted behind an enclosure door. It is compatible with TeSys Vario V02 to V2 disconnectors and is classified as a locking accessory. Key specifications include a 300 mm shaft length, 6 × 6 mm shaft cross section, back-to-door distance of 300–330 mm, net weight 75 g, and mounting for door-mounted operating mechanisms. Common applications include electrical control panels, motor control centers, machine isolation cabinets, and power distribution enclosures that require secure door interlocking and accurate switch positioning.
