Newmar SS Switch 7.5 Inv 7.5KW Transfer Switch 4 Position

Navigating power sources on a boat demands reliability and precision, especially when juggling shore power, onboard generators, and inverters. The Newmar SS Switch 7.5 INV stands out as a dependable 7.5kW transfer switch with four distinct positions, designed to safeguard your electrical system from the risks of overlapping AC inputs. This isn't just a switch—it's your first line of defense against potential overloads, short circuits, or equipment damage that could arise from unintended simultaneous connections.

Streamlined Power Management for Marine Adventures

Imagine docking at a marina with shore power available, firing up your generator for off-grid cruising, or relying on your inverter during quiet anchorages. Without proper isolation, these sources can clash, leading to tripped breakers or worse. This 4-position transfer switch—typically configured for Shore, Generator, Inverter, and Off—lets you toggle effortlessly between options. Its engraved escutcheon plate provides clear, at-a-glance labeling, minimizing errors even in low-light conditions below deck.

Engineered for Superior Performance and Safety

• Heavy-Duty Contacts: Built to handle continuous 7.5kW loads with minimal resistance, ensuring efficient power delivery without voltage drops.
• Positive Step Cam Mechanism: Delivers firm, audible clicks for confirmed position changes, reducing wear and enhancing longevity.
• Compact and Versatile Design: Fits panels up to 1/4-inch thick, with a sleek escutcheon that integrates seamlessly into modern dashboards or control panels.
• Global Certifications: Meets rigorous UL, CSA, and VDE standards, proving its suitability for demanding marine environments where moisture, vibration, and salt air are constants.

Unlike basic toggles, this switch prioritizes foolproof operation. The mechanical interlock prevents accidental bridging of sources, a common pitfall in multi-power setups that can fry sensitive electronics like navigation systems or refrigeration units.

Effortless Integration into Your Vessel's Electrical Setup

Installing this transfer switch simplifies complex wiring diagrams. Mount it in a convenient spot, connect your incoming AC lines from shore, generator, and inverter outputs, then route to your distribution panel. No need for elaborate relays or automatic controls unless desired—manual selection offers full control and instant diagnostics. It's ideal for DIY-savvy boaters or professional installers aiming for clean, code-compliant systems. Pro tip: Pair it with voltage monitors for added peace of mind during transitions.

Durable Construction Tailored for Harsh Conditions

Crafted with marine-grade materials, it resists corrosion and maintains contact integrity over years of use. Boaters report decades of trouble-free service, even in tropical climates or rough offshore passages. This reliability translates to fewer downtimes, lower maintenance costs, and confidence in your power chain—from battery banks to high-draw appliances like air conditioning or watermakers.

Real-World Applications Beyond Basic Switching

Whether retrofitting an older vessel or outfitting a new build, this switch excels in hybrid power systems. It's a staple for liveaboards prioritizing redundancy, weekend warriors needing quick gen-to-inverter swaps, or commercial operators demanding uninterrupted service. By centralizing control, it declutters panels and streamlines operation for crew or family members alike.
