Subject: RE: transfer switch ?



Madison Co. Virginia

I searched for "three-way 30 amp switch." "30A DPDT" will get results as well. Both of these will do the job. I'm not an electrician, and I really can't tell you when the expensive transfer switch should be used vs the cheaper light switch.

Edit to add: I just reread the description of the transfer switch, and technically you'd be misusing it. It's designed to switch a load between two hots, not a hot between two loads. I don't know if it matters in any way.
