I cant seem to locate a wire scematic that is easy to read with all the items that I have. I realize this should be a standard deal. My Magnum ms 4024 has a few diagrams but does not show every thing. Would any one know where to find a good diagram.
I have again the ms4024 Inv/chg, (6) 120 w solar panels,solar combiner box,solar breaker box, kubota gen. I need an AC and DC disconnect, main breaker panel transfer switch not automatic, want to do it manualy, generator breaker box ??
I thought this would be simple but cant find good drawings. Thank You. Randall

How about one lead from the breaker panel, that you simply
plug and unplug from whatever AC supply you desire? It's
about the most simple "transfer switch" out there.

John, I thought it was necessary to have both types of disconnects in order to shut off power supply like turning off battery supply ?? otherwise do you have a drawing for what your purposing ? Thank You.

I'm not too swift with working up schematics in the fly, but the
idea behind it, is....

The breaker panel would have one lead (30 or 50 amp), terminated
to the appropriate plug (30 or 50 amp), and one would simply plug -that-
into whatever source was to be used...

The inverter, terminated to an outlet
The genset, terminated to an outlet.
The power-pole lead, terminated to an outlet.
The Solar panel converter, terminated to an outlet.

Just plug n' play! It's about as manual as you can get....

I don't understand the need to disconnect the DC, though...

Some coaches "leak" some can stand a month with the batset just loosing juice internaly.

Slow leaks are TV , some car radios and just old wiring.

A solar cell and controller solves most DC storage hassles.

A plug to play for the AC will take lightning strikes the automatic transfer goodie wont.
