Specifications for switch?

I don't generally touch anything to do with solar kit but have been asked to come up with a method whereby an immersion heater can be switched from mains to solar or solar to mains.

A straight forword solution is simply a change over switch with 2 supplies in and one supply out to the heater, but because one of the input supplies is coming from solar - post-inverter so mains voltage - I would like to know if I can use a conventional change over switch or are there some special requiements for switching the mains output derived from a solar supply?

Comments welcome

  • This might be a crackpot idea but would a horseman dual supply timer do the job. The type used with on and off peak supplies. ( I know nothing about solar )
