What is a Changeover Switch Used For?
A changeover switch is an electrical switch that allows a load to be changed from one electrical source to another and vice versa, either manually or automatically.
When you install a generator at your home or business, you should also install a generator changeover switch so that the generator can be turned on quickly when a power failure occurs.
On the other hand, changeover switches can also prevent electrical accidents from occurring on the side of utility employees by making an electrical current move within the correct limits.
Transfer switches also ensure that power sources are properly isolated when not in use.
Although there are several types of electrical switches, the main feature and advantage of changeover switches is their ability to transfer an electrical load to an alternative source, such as a generator, quickly, safely, and efficiently.
On the other hand, electrical changeover switches have a wide variety of applications, be they simple home applications or critical business and industrial applications.
In fact, many industries have large and complex electrical systems with multiple generators and access points to connect and disconnect from the main grid as needed.
Some examples of use cases are:
- Telecommunication and data networks
- Factories and industrial processes
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities
- Educational facilities
- Malls
- Warehouses
- Small and medium-sized businesses
Manual Changeover Switch
Manual transfer switches have to be manually operated in order to change from one power source to another.
This is usually done using a lever located on the side of the switch, although there are also models that work with an electronic button.
Automatic Changeover Switch
These devices have intelligent electronic control mechanisms that can decide when to activate the switch without the need for human intervention
