does a small 15 amp transfer switch exist?

[doox00]

I want to put a small transfer switch to switch from grid ac or solar ac to the mini split in my solar shed, does something like this exist, a small ~15 amp transfer switch?

Some inverters have a small ATS built-in. A common size for RV use is 30 amps, but if your sure 15 amps is going to get the job done, here is a stand alone 15 amp ATS...https://www.amazon.com/AC120V-Autom...&qid=1729406253&sprefix=rv+ats,aps,177&sr=8-3

That one is 120v, i have a 240v mini split, was hoping for a manual transfer switch as well, one like this would work though if it were 240v.

I have several of these in use.
For myself and customers.

I have several of these in use.

I put MTS on each of:
Elect oven, Elect Dryer, House Heat-pump, and yesterday a new Shop heat-pump.
I also used one to control supply to the Chargeverter - select utility or generator source.
These are handy.

I use the double pole ones I get off Aliexpress.

US 240v is split phase. isn't it?. Everything posted seems to be single phase

Not cheap but this one is ETL listed for US and Canada.

Well, split phase is (almost always) single phase, and the OP has a mini-split, which probably doesn't have a neutral, and the $23 one I found is 3-phase, so you can make pretty much anything work.

Hint: Don't switch the neutral unless you know what you are doing and have a good reason to do so.

Split-phase is single phase with a center tapped neutral.

Well, split phase is ( always) single phase,

I fixed it for you.

So 208/120 isn't split-phase?

 

[timselectric]

So 208/120 isn't split-phase?

Only if using one of the phases.
Otherwise it's 3-phase.
