• When the left side is closed, push up the right side and the left side will be linked to close.
• When the right side is closed, push up the left side and the right side will be linked to close.
• The working principle of the dual power manual switch is to turn off the power first and then switch, so there is no need to worry about short circuit problems.
• It is recommended to choose a 1P or 2P manual transfer switch for household 220V lines, and a 3P or 4P manual transfer switch for industrial 380V lines.

Tips: What is a dual power manual transfer switch?

A dual power manual transfer switch is an electrical device used to facilitate the switching between two power sources, typically the main utility power and a backup power source such as a generator. It provides a means of transferring the electrical load from one power source to another in a manual and controlled manner.

The transfer switch is installed between the main electrical panel or distribution board and the backup power source. It has two sets of input terminals or connections, one for the utility power and the other for the backup power source. The output terminals are connected to the electrical circuits or equipment that need to be powered.

The dual power manual transfer switch typically consists of a switching mechanism, such as a rotary switch or lever, that allows the user to manually select which power source to use. When the utility power is available and stable, the switch is positioned to connect the electrical load to the utility power source. In the event of a power outage or when switching to the backup power source, the user manually switches the transfer switch to connect the load to the backup power source, such as a generator.

The switch is designed to ensure a safe and seamless transfer of power between the two sources. It may include safety features such as overcurrent protection, short circuit protection, and surge protection to safeguard electrical equipment. Some transfer switches also include indicator lights or meters to provide information about the power status and load conditions.

Dual power manual transfer switches are commonly used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications where a reliable backup power supply is required during power outages or when switching between power sources is necessary. They offer convenience, control, and flexibility in managing power sources and ensuring uninterrupted power supply to critical circuits or equipment.
