Pressfit’s SFT1 MCB Changeover Switch (COS) enables us to switch the load between two power supplies. In most cases, the COS is used to switch to a backup line when the main line needs to be taken offline for repair and maintenance. It is widely used in industries and in domestic locations where continuity of supply is necessary. It finds a lot of use in individual bungalows due to the same reason.
Changeover switches, in principle, disconnect switches independently based on manual operation, and can make, carrying, and breaking currents under normal circuit conditions. The COS has 3 positions – I-O-II with the center line being the off. The SFT1 COS comes in 2 types – DP and FP – for single and three phase applications, just like other circuit breakers.
