Here's a 100 amp version of the Reliance box. Cheap, lots of room, easy
to wire up, but NEMA 1.

Does anyone know of any bypass switch/breaker setup for anything
greater than 60 amps for 2 poles, other than large DPDT switches which
get pricey and hard to source especially for 200 amps?

I probably still have one of the old QO boxes on the shelf, but I
never liked them. Single pole, very tight, and you had to double
lug or use a weird split bolt arrangement with exposed copper out
past the breaker.
I started using these 60A T switches from Northern:

Midnite makes small 30A and 60A T switches as well:

Kris, It was SqD QO403, and it was a 3-pole load
center/disconnect, not 4-pole. You may recall that the
dual-inverter Trace Power Panels of long ago used two of these,
each one serving as an inverter bypass switch to one 120V AC leg.

Hi All,
I have a stand alone system that was upgraded from an FX
inverter to a Radian WITHOUT the companion load center. I
would like to add an inverter bypass circuit to operate the
house on generator power. There used to be a 4 slot breaker
panel (SqD?) with the rocker switch preventing both breakers
from being in the on position simultaneously. I have not been
able to find it on the interweb. Anyone know of something out
there that would meet my needs?
Kris
