Molded Case Switches are ampere rated and can be used up to 100% of their ampere rating. Please note that molded case switches need to be protected by a fuse or a breaker of equal ampere rating.
The protective breaker may be either an 80% or 100% rated breaker. Therefore the molded case switch takes on the rating of the fuse or breaker protecting it, and can be 100% rated.
