The LAE 241 Automatic Bow-Stern Switch from Philippi is an AC switching unit that automatically switches between two shore power feeds at the bow and stern on yachts, designed for a maximum of 16 A.
- Prevents mains voltage from being present at the unused connector – protects against life-threatening situations due to live pin contacts
- Automatic switching without manual intervention when changing berths between bow and stern connections
- Compact, splash-proof housing with IP X4 protection for on-board installation
If shore power connectors are installed at both the bow and stern of a yacht, a switch must be provided to isolate the two feeds – otherwise, the unconnected contacts will be live. The Philippi LAE 241 performs this isolation automatically and keeps the unused connector voltage-free.
