What to specify for a changeover switch

Share the specifications you have so the sales desk can confirm the right items, price and lead time.

Transfer mode

A manual switch needs someone to operate it. An ATS monitors the sources and transfers according to its controls. If you need coordinated generator start or specific transfer and return delays, include them in the enquiry.

Sources and ratings

Name both sources and share the design voltage, frequency, phase and rated current in amps. Include the number of poles and neutral switching requirement from the design, plus any specified fault rating.

Installation and controls

Say whether you need a standalone switch for a panel or an enclosed unit. Include the mounting location, enclosure protection rating and any required auxiliary contacts or remote indication.

Replacing a switch in an existing panel?

Send the manufacturer and full model reference from the nameplate, along with the supply arrangement and mounting dimensions. Confirm with the project engineer whether a substitute needs to match the existing generator controls and transfer sequence before ordering.
