I’m looking for a transfer switch like the VE Transfer Switch, but it needs to support about 100A. I see there is only a 10kVA, single phase, 200-250Vac version available.
Does anyone have any recommendation on what to use in this case? It should ideally be remote controllable.
Thanks for any input.
We’ve used a lot Socomec Atys as mains-genset switchover, they come in three variants, fully manual, motorised controlled by remote signals and fully automatic. But only the small variant up to 160A.
For systems that could run the genset in parallel to mains or more complex systems we’ve used regular Schneider Electric NSX or ABB Sace, but personally i preferred the Schneider NSX since its motor drive was overall better to work with, easier to install/remove and felt sturdier, also the Schneider chassis for their removable ccbs i think is better. Once you get into the range of integrated motor drive, so 630A and above, Schneider and ABB Sace are pretty equal.
Ive also worked with various other brands over the years, their not bad, only Terasaki stays in bad memory, their circuit breakers repeatedly and over multiple installations/years just didnt switch on reliably, thats no use in an emergency genset environment.
In theory all you would need to do would be to upgrade the contactor to 100A (and associated wiring to an from - terminal block size check) . And then it will work.
