Expert Answers about Chevrolet RV Transfer Switch
- Transfer Switch For A 50 Amp RV To A 30 Amp Shore Service
- Realistically you should be using a 50A transfer switch like the:
-Progressive Dynamics Transfer Switch # PD52.
As using a 30A transfer switch would leave one leg of your panel unhooked, which isn't ideal.
However, with that being said you can use your 30A transfer switch with a 50A service.
view full answer... - Is A Transfer Switch Necessary On an RV?
- Yes you are going to need a transfer switch if you plan on using more than one AC power source on your RV. For instance, if you're plugged into shore power and would also like to use a generator, then you'd want to use the Go Power Automatic Transfer Switch # 34270278.
view full answer... - Is There A Power Draw On The Transfer Switch
- Per the manufacturer The Go Power Automatic Transfer Switch # 342GPTS will have a slight draw but the value will be in milliamps between 3-5 milliamps.
The transfer switch automatically reroutes your RV's AC input from the inverter power to shore power when activated.
I attached a review video link below.

- The Bulldog Winch OE Replacement # BDW20088 is wired so that two separate outputs can be run from a vehicle battery, but this is a continuous duty solenoid, so it's not going to operate in the manner that you're hoping.
With that being said, I think you might be looking for a transfer switch like the Go Power Automatic Transfer Switch - Plastic Case - 30 Amp - 120V # 34264403 which will allow you to alternate between 2 separate 120V AC inputs to feed your RV's breaker panel. This switch...

- I have a solution for you but you can not connect an inverter directly to the AC input of the Progressive Dynamics RV Power Control Center with AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger 35 Amp item # PD4135K. You will need to use the Progressive Dynamics Transfer Switch with Quick Flip Connectors - Plastic Case - 30 Amp - 120V item # PD5110010Q. This will allow you to use an inverter in place of a generator.
view full answer... - Does Entire Automatic Transfer Switch Box Need to be Replaced
- You will indeed need to replace the entire box of the automatic transfer switch as opposed to just the switch portion. There are two options for this, either a 30 amp or 50 amp transfer switch:
- 30 Amp: Furrion Automatic Transfer Switch # F30ATS
- 50 Amp: Furrion Automatic Transfer Switch # F50ATS

- I recommend using the Progressive Dynamics Transfer Switch with Quick Flip Connectors - Plastic Case - 30 Amp - 120V # PD5110010Q because of the reliability of Progressive Dynamics components. You could also buy an inverter that comes with a transfer switch like the Go Power Industrial Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger - 2,000 Watts - 100 Amps - 12V # 34280055. This GoPower Inverter Charger offers pure sine wave power to help protect sensitive electronics and acts as an inverter, converter...
view full answer... - Transfer Switch and Power Panel Recommendation for Lithium Ion Battery Setup
- It sounds like you're needing a distribution center like the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger - 45 Amp # PD4045KA as well as an inverter/transfer switch like the Progressive Dynamics # PD44FR.
The Might Mini Panel has the AC/DC panels to distribute power as well as the converter to charge your trailer batteries when connected to shore power, and then the inverter/transfer switch pulls power from your battery bank unless you're connected to shore...
view full answer... - What Size Wire Should Be Used With a 30 AMP Automatic Transfer Switch?
- You're going to want to use 10 AWG wire # 10-1-1 with your Go Power Automatic Transfer Switch - Plastic Case # 34264403.
Since this is a 30 amp ATS 10 AWG will be plenty, but if you were to use a 50 amp switch you'd want to beef that wire up to 6 AWG.

- I went ahead and checked, and the power cord for the Goal Zero Home Integration Kit with Reliance Pro/Tran Series 15 Amp 4 Circuit Manual Transfer Switch # 287-44060 is actually not available, however it appears that this kit just utilizes a standard 5-15 female plug in which you could use the:
-Mighty Cord Indoor/Outdoor Extension Cord w/ Indicator Lights # A10-10014E instead.
This extension cord is also much longer at 100', rated at 15 amps, and is made from the same 14 AWG wire composition.

- I do have a solution for you with the Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter - 50 Amp Twist Lock Female to 30 Amp Male - 12" # A10-3050HDVP adapter, which will plug into your 50amp receptacle with a twist lock female end and provide you with a 30 amp plug on the other. You can then use the Mighty Cord 25' RV Power Cord Extension w/ Handle - 120V - 30 Amp # A10-3025EH to plug into that adapter and to your generator to provide power.
view full answer... - Can I Use the Progressive Dynamics PD52 to Replace a Furrion F50ATS
- Yes. You could use the Progressive Dynamics # PD52 to replace your Furrion # F50ATS; they're both rated for 50amps so they are compatible. The Furrion does provide a bit of extra protection against power surges though with it's 125/250v supply, so I do prefer that choice when possible.
view full answer... - What Setup do I Need to Run Generator Power/Battery Power with the # PD4575K18LS8?
- Even though the Progressive Dynamics RV Power Control Center with AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger # PD4575K18LS8 is designed to use with 50-amp shore power, I confirmed with my tech at Progressive Dynamics that you can use the panel with a generator with the Progressive Dynamics Transfer Switch - Metal Case - 50 Amp # PD52.
If you are looking to run AC appliances to run on battery power, this will require a setup that requires an inverter and a different configuration.
view full answer... - Parts Needed To Convert Promaster Van To RV With Shore Power, Not Using Any Solar Power
- You will need a plug on the outside of your 2021 Ram ProMaster 2500 and the wiring for this plug. In addition, you will need a converter to convert the power from 110V to 12V. I recommend the Furrion Replacement RV Power Inlet - 30 Amp Twist Lock - Stainless Steel, part # F30ITSSS. The twist lock keeps this cord weatherproof.
You will also need a transfer switch and a converter. You can get both with the Go Power Industrial Pure Sine Wave Inverter Charger - 2,000 Watts - 100 Amps - 12V,...

- Thank you for all of the information! Trailers usually use 12V DC power but since it sounds like everything you have will operate using 110/120 AC power I recommend just going with AC power.
The first thing you need is a transfer switch so your electrical system knows where to pull power from (your generator or your shore power) and for this I recommend the Progressive Dynamics Transfer Switch # PD5110010Q.
Since you have a variety of electrical components I also recommend using the Progressive...

- You can upgrade your setup from a 30 amp to a 50 amp but it's going to be pricey and you're likely going to need to hire an electrician.
The first thing you're going to need is to swap out your 30 amp inlet with the SmartPlug RV and Marine Power Inlet # SM79FR. This is going to require you to replace the existing wiring as well to accommodate for the extra amps.
You'll also need a new control center, Progressive Dynamics 4500 Series RV Converter w/ Charge Wizard and AC/DC Distribution...

- From what I could find online it looks like you can flat tow your 2013 Suzuki Grand Vitara as long as it is a 4WD with a transfer switch. If it is a 4WD without a transfer switch then you need to use a trailer to keep all of the wheels off of the ground. For a 2WD you can tow it using a tow dolly with the rear wheels off of the ground. You will want to verify this and specific instructions in your copy of the owner's manual.
If you have a 2WD then I recommend using the Roadmaster Tow Dolly...

- I have a great solution for you. Unfortunately, we do not carry any a 12v or 110v system, but we do carry drill-free options. To use your current RV water lines to transfer anti-freeze, that is the Valterra Water Pump Conversion Kit for RV Winterizing # P23506LFVP. With this option, the 3-way valve permanently connects to your RV's water pump to transfer anti-freeze throughout the water lines.
