I have two battery vaults. Both vaults have 60 batteries at around 2 volts per cell. Between them is a manual transfer switch that feeds a DC panel which is obviously the normal load. I want to transfer the switch from one vault to the other but this transfer switch is not a make before break switch. so to avoid dropping out DC voltage and possibly taking the plant offline my question is: would it be safe to wire a wire a a disconnect in parallel with the transfer switch, close the disconnect (joining the two vaults parallel), swap the transfer switch, and open the disconnect? Then power would not be interupted. My DC power from the north vault at the switch is 131.3 VDC and the voltage from the south vault at the switch is 133.5. And polarity is lined up.
Thanks.
Thanks.
