Katko Change Over Switch with free circuit breaker

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.

Typical uses include

• Telecommunication and data centre usage
•  industrial set ups
• healthcare facilities
• Educational institutions
• Malls and shops
• Warehouses and stores
• other businesses

Typically, changeover switches are used in three different ways:

• To switch between the grid and a generator
• To switch between different generator sets
• To switch between different power sources e.g solar and grid
