If that source fails or moves outside acceptable parameters, the unit transfers the load to the secondary source automatically, then switches back once the primary source is restored. This is the behaviour needed where an inverter or generator backs up a shore or grid supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts dual voltage and frequency rating means a single unit covers a 230V\/50Hz system in the UK or Europe and a 240V\/60Hz system elsewhere. That flexibility matters most in marine and mobile applications, where the local supply standard can change with location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOff-grid systems switching automatically between inverter output and generator supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine and narrowboat installations changing over between shore power and an onboard generator or inverter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotorhome and vehicle conversions with dual AC source setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackup power systems in residential or light commercial premises needing generator failover.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1 x Victron Filax 2 Transfer Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFit the Filax 2 only with a qualified electrician familiar with AC distribution and transfer switching. Incorrect wiring of a transfer switch can cause back-feeding, equipment damage or a safety risk. For grid-connected UK installations, check the system design against G98 or G99 as applicable, and isolate all AC sources before working on the unit or its wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52095400313120,"sku":"SDFI0000000","price":222.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-sdfi0000000-1.webp?v=1785749097","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/filax-2-automatic-transfer-switch","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
