About
Specifications & Features
This 2-pole manual changeover switch is a practical way to switch an indoor DB between two supplies (for example Eskom and a generator or inverter/solar) so your office essentials and key circuits can be moved over safely when the power goes off—just make sure it’s wired in by a qualified electrician.
Specifications
- Voltage: 230V
- IP Rating: IP20 – Indoor Use
Use Case Ideas: How, Where & Why!
Home office backup changeover: Switch a home office DB from Eskom to an inverter during load-shedding so routers, lights, and essential plugs stay on.
Small workshop generator switchover: Mount in the garage DB to manually switch machinery and task lighting from grid to a portable generator during outages.
Retail point-of-sale continuity: Feed the till counter and POS network from an inverter when Eskom drops, keeping scanners, receipt printers, and Wi-Fi online safely.
Server room essentials changeover: Switch a small server room's dedicated circuit to UPS or inverter input to maintain routers, switches, and NVR power during scheduled load-shedding.
Apartment essential circuits selector: At the indoor DB, switch lounge lights and fridge sockets between Eskom and a balcony-mounted inverter trolley system when needed.
Installation Guidance, Tips & Tricks
Choose An Indoor Location: Install the switch inside an indoor DB only; its IP20 rating is for indoor use.
Confirm 230V Compatibility: Use this switch only on 230V systems to match its specification.
Select The Two Supplies: Use it to switch an indoor DB between sources like Eskom and a generator or inverter/solar.
Label Supply Positions Clearly: Clearly mark which position selects each supply so users can quickly choose the correct source during an outage.
Test Manual Changeover Operation: After installation, operate the switch to confirm office essentials and key circuits transfer correctly between the selected supplies.
