Transfer Switch

[dave&ginny]

My transfer switch is starting to make noises so I'm assuming it's going out. I believe the newer Entegra Coaches have an upgraded switch. Can someone take a picture of their 2020 or newer switch so I can get the model number off of it.


Thanks

Dave, here is a link to all of the transfer switches currently offered by Southwire/Surge Guard:

My 2018 Cornerstone has a 40350-RVC transfer switch. I'm not sure but I believe Entegra is currently installing the 40450-RVC. Your coach may have a 41260 or it might have a 40350-RVC.

The 40350-RVC and 40450-RVC are virtually identical except the 40450-RVC has one additional feature called "Shore Power Sensing." Southwire defines the shore power sensing feature as follows:

"RVC network communication of both generator and shore power availability through exclusive shore power sensing technology.

Allows the RVC network to better control the power source of the RV and reconnect with shore power when it is available."

If you want to replace your transfer switch, I would go with the 40350-RVC or 40450-RVC - take your pick.

Perfect! Thanks Larry

What kind of noise is it making? On our 2019 Aspire ours makes a humming noise. Call surge guard and they say that normal nothing to worry about.

My 21 is louder than other Entegras I have owned. I know it falls in the "normal" range, but it does make one wonder.

Mine was knocking repeatedly. I ordered a upgrade model for $650 that’s supposed to have all the protections built into it

[dave&ginny]

The unit I ordered is a Surge Guard #40350RVC. It just got delivered today but I don't think I'll have time to install it before the AIM rally in Sevierville, TN. I'll just carry it and my tools with me in case my current box quits.
