Changeover Switches, 2 Pole, 63A, 240V

About the Product

The Tripper Modular Changeover Switch 63A DP 240V AC is a heavy-duty switching device designed to transfer electrical load between two power sources, such as the main supply & a generator or inverter. It is ideal for residential, commercial, & light industrial applications where higher load capacity & uninterrupted power availability are essential.

With a 63A current rating, this switch is suitable for high load circuits. The double pole (DP) configuration ensures simultaneous switching of both phase & neutral conductors, providing complete isolation & enhanced safety during operation.

How the Changeover Switch Works

This modular changeover switch allows safe manual switching between two power supplies:

• Connects the load to one source at a time

• Disconnects the active source before switching to the alternate source

• Prevents backfeeding between two power supplies

• Ensures smooth, reliable, & safe transfer of electrical load

This makes it ideal for backup power systems & emergency supply management.
