Change Over Switch

A change over switch on Jumia typically costs between ₦15,000 and ₦60,000, depending on the amperage rating and number of poles, and whether it's manual or automatic. This device is commonly used to safely switch between mains electricity and a generator.

Match the switch's amperage rating to your household's electrical load and your generator's capacity, since an undersized switch can be a safety hazard. Decide between manual switches, which require you to physically flip the switch, and automatic transfer switches, which switch power sources without manual intervention.

A manual switch is generally more affordable and simpler, requiring you to switch it yourself when power goes out or returns. An automatic transfer switch costs more but switches power sources without any action needed from you, which some buyers find more convenient, especially for continuous power needs.

Yes, it's strongly recommended to have a change over switch installed by a qualified electrician, since incorrect installation can create serious safety hazards, including the risk of electrocution or damage to your generator and household wiring.
