To keep things simple I was thinking about using the Honeywell DPDT on/on/on toggle switch for switching on BAT + Alternator 1 & Alternator 2 (aux alt) at the same time. The design would include one main battery and the IBBS standby bat.
Switch position logic:
1. BAT + ALT 1 & ALT 2
2. BAT
3. OFF
To manually switch of either ALT 1 or ALT 2 I would have to pull either ALT1 or ALT2 field CBs positioned after the main switch. I understand 2 possible design problems:
1. The wire going to the main switch feeding the ALT fields has no protection
2. The switch would be a single point of failure
-any other problems I am missing with this setup?
thanks!
