800 amp service rated transfer switch

farlsincharge · Aug 16, 2012

I need an 800 amp single phase service rated transfer switch. I have never done anything near this large before. It must be at least Nema 3r and have a manual transfer option on it.

I am going to call my Eaton rep tomorrow, but I thought I would throw it out to you guys tonight. Who makes a good transfer switch?

Some of the ones I was looking at tonight are upwards of 700 pounds

Single phase? Thats odd for 800A transfer

It's a hotel built in about 1978. I don't think there would be anything wrong with using a 3 phase switch either.

Except a three phase transfer switch will not transfer the power as the monitors wont see power on all three legs, I fought that with a asco switch. Which btw check with asco
