The invention discloses a 450 mm-wide small switch cabinet and relates to a switch cabinet. According to the 450 mm-wide small switch cabinet, an insulation plate and a support plate are fixed on a shell, the switch cabinet is divided into three chambers, namely a bus chamber, a circuit breaker chamber and a cable chamber from top to bottom in sequence, by the insulation plate and the support plate, a disconnecting switch and a wall bushing are installed in the bus chamber, a vacuum circuit breaker and an operation mechanism are located in the circuit breaker chamber and installed on the support plate, a current transformer penetrates through the support plate, an earthing switch and an overvoltage protector are installed in the cable chamber, a primary loop of the vacuum circuit breaker is connected with the disconnecting switch and the current transformer through copper bars, one end of an operation connecting lever of the operation mechanism is connected with a transmission connecting lever of the disconnecting switch through a connecting rod, and the other end of the operation connecting lever of the operation mechanism is connected with a transmission connecting lever of the earthing switch. According to the 450 mm-wide small switch cabinet, the size of the switch cabinet is reduced greatly, the primary conductive loop is shortened greatly, the resistance of a major loop is reduced, the occupied area is reduced, cost is saved, and requirements for miniaturization of power distribution equipment are met.
