Description
Emergency Parallel Switch - 12/24V - 500A This Motorized Switch offers remotely activated, high current, emergency parallel connection suitable for emergency starting of large engines (up to 2500A for 10 seconds). The emergency parallel functionality is conveniently operated via a momentary button on the dash, which when activated, will parallel the batteries for 10 minutes.
Once the 10 minutes has passed, the switch turns off, removing the risk of start batteries becoming flattened following a parallel switch being inadvertently left on. Designed and constructed for the harsh marine environment, utilizing tinned copper conductors, stainless steel nuts, and high temperature, fiber reinforced plastics to ensure longevity.
The units are ignition protected, provide On/Off switching operation, and may be recessed or surface mounted. Features: 12/24 volt operation (both battery banks must be same voltage) Manual override option 10 minute remotely activated emergency parallel function (no voltage sensitive function) Technical Specifications: Volts - 12/24V Rating - 500A Dimensions (L x W x H) - 4" x 4" x 4.

Electrical — frequently asked
- What’s the difference between marine wire and regular wire?
- Marine wire uses tinned (tin-coated) copper strands that resist the corrosion salt air causes, and it’s more finely stranded so it flexes with vibration without breaking. Standard automotive or household wire corrodes and fails much faster in a marine environment.
- How do I size a fuse for a marine circuit?
- Size the fuse to protect the wire, not just the device. Match the fuse rating to the wire gauge’s safe current capacity so the fuse blows before the wire overheats. When adding a new circuit, follow the wire manufacturer’s ampacity chart for the gauge and run length you’re using.
- Do I need a battery switch on my boat?
- A marine battery switch is strongly recommended. It lets you disconnect the battery for storage or service, isolate a failed battery, and — on multi-battery setups — choose which bank powers the boat. It’s a core safety and reliability component.
