Abstract
A static transfer switch includes first and second inputs, an output, first and second bypass breakers, first and second power stages, first and second contactors, a load switch, and a controller. The first and second inputs are configured to selectively couple with a first power source via a first circuit breaker and a second power source via a second circuit breaker, respectively. The first and second bypass breakers are configured to selectively couple the first and second input with the output, respectively. The first and second contactors are configured to selectively couple the first input with the first power stage and the second input with the second power stage, respectively. The load switch is configured to selectively couple the first and second power stages with the output, and the controller is configured to modify an operating state of the first and second contactors and the first and second power stages.
