The switch is the transfer switch that automatically transfers between inverter power and incoming AC power. I installed my own along with the 3 solar panels I have I rarely have my converter even plugged in. That saves a lot when your paying for your own electricity. The specs on the MS converter should be in your warranty papers. I have read it all but it was a long time ago so I won't quote anything. You can also get add on to control the charge to your batteries if you don't trust the converter to have the needed tecknowlighy built in.
