AI Technical Summary
The existing dual-power automatic transfer switch has a design flaw. Its indication is too simple, which can easily lead to operator error and cause both power sources to be supplied at the same time, resulting in safety accidents.
Multiple indication methods are employed, including microswitches and indicator lights. By rotating the handle, the oscillating plate is slid, triggering the microswitch to control the indicator light status. Combined with the prompt and indicator ports on the cover, multiple indications are provided to ensure operational safety.
This improves the safety of using the dual-power automatic transfer switch, avoids misoperation accidents caused by a single indicator, and enhances the reliability and safety of operation.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Currently, automatic transfer switches (ATS), as the name suggests, automatically connect to a backup power source when a power outage occurs, ensuring uninterrupted operation. Simply put, the purpose of an ATS is to have one main power supply and one backup power supply. When the main power supply fails or is interrupted, the ATS automatically switches to the backup power source, allowing equipment to continue operating normally. Many industries and departments have extremely high requirements for power supply reliability.
