On-Load Changeover

Sharing is caring ...

  • Description
  • Features

An On-Load Changeover is an electrical switch designed to transfer a load from one power source to another without interrupting the power supply. Unlike standard changeover switches, which may require a brief power interruption to switch between sources, on-load changeover switches are designed to handle live (on-load) transfers, ensuring continuous power to connected devices and systems.

Specifications of On-Load Changeover

Here are the detailed Features of the product:

  • Seamless Power Transition:

    • The primary function of an on-load changeover is to enable a smooth transition between two power sources (such as from the main power supply to a backup generator) while the load remains energized. This feature is crucial in applications where even a brief interruption of power is unacceptable.
  • High Durability and Reliability:

    • On-load changeovers are built to handle high electrical loads and are designed with robust contacts and arc-quenching features to manage the electrical arc that occurs during switching. This durability ensures reliable performance over extended periods, even in demanding environments.
  • Manual or Automatic Operation:

    • These switches can be operated manually or automatically, depending on the specific requirements. Automatic on-load changeovers use sensors and controllers to detect power failure or fluctuations and automatically switch to the backup source, while manual on-load changeovers require an operator to initiate the transfer.
  • Built-in Safety Mechanisms:

    • Safety is a critical aspect of on-load changeovers. They are equipped with features that prevent both sources from connecting simultaneously, which could lead to electrical faults or equipment damage. Additionally, they often have interlocks and other safety mechanisms to protect personnel during operation.
  • Support for Various Power Sources:

    • On-load changeovers are versatile and can manage a variety of power sources, including the main grid, generators, solar power systems, and batteries. This flexibility makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, ensuring uninterrupted power under various conditions.
