Title: AC Disconnect Switch for Inverter
Post by: zulu on January 25, 2022, 07:14:41 PM
I need a recommendation for an AC disconnect make/break switch that sits between a 50A AC power source and a 3000W Inverter/Charger.

Seems like any electrical supplier would have an AC disconnect that could handle that .
Depends on if you want a toggle type switch, turn style switch, or blade or pull out disconnect.
Some are three phase.  Also depends if you want it outside and weather proof or indoors, what you want to mount it in or if it should be self contained in a box already.
Also depends on how much you want to spend .
I just did a search online - lots of choices but I don't have any particular experience or recommendations on particulars.

Do you need a simple AC disconnect , or are you asking about an AC Transfer Switch  ( manual or automatic )   ?
