I am having a devil of a time finding a DPDT 30 Amp manual transfer switch in Canada. I know they are out there, but I surely can't find them. Any suggestions?
My theory is, I am welding along with my welder plugged into Hydro, and poof the hydro goes out as is well known to happen up here for no particular reason. does that mean I have to stop my project? NOT! Just fire up my genny, throw the transfer switch from the mains to the genny and continue welding.

I looked up Hydro to confirm that it's what I call grid power. The Wikipedia article gave eleven different names used for it in the US.:D

Fairly common item, call an electrical supply house that contractors would use.
Easton Cutler Hammer, GE, Square D, etc.. all make them.
Here's a link to C-H, click on "documentation" tab for catalog Eaton

I got one. Dixon Electric in North Bay has an Eaton. It will be here at the end of the week. All is good, again.

How many Canuck bucks was that, if you don't mind me asking. PN too ?
