Abstract
A switching device includes multiple switches configured to selectively connect one of two power sources to electrical loads. The switching device may include either single-pole or double-pole, double-throw switches and corresponding single or double circuit breakers. The single and double circuit breakers are each configured to be inserted into openings having the same physical dimensions. At least one of the switches is a double-pole, double-throw switch, allowing two branch circuits to be transferred between power sources via the switch. A double breaker corresponding to the double-pole, double-throw transfer switch permits each of the branch circuits being switched by the double-throw switch to be wired through a separate protective circuit.
