YGLZ-160 3-POLE 160Amp Manual Transfer Switch
YGLZ-160/3P is a manual transfer switch, rated 160 A with 3 poles for generator installations where someone is on site to change over.
About this part
Where an automatic switch is not needed, a manual changeover is the lowest-cost safe way to connect a generator to a building's distribution board.
When to replace it
- Connecting a portable or standby generator to a building
- Replacing a worn switch
- Increasing the current rating
Before you order
Choose the current rating to suit the incoming supply and 3 or 4 poles according to the neutral arrangement. Installation must be done by a qualified electrician.
Not sure it is the right one? A photo of the old part and the nameplate of the machine it came off is usually all the counter needs to confirm a match.
Questions
Do I need a changeover switch to connect a generator?
Yes. Connecting a generator to a building without one is illegal and dangerous, because it can back-feed the grid.
