If your transfer switch is rated as “Suitable for Use as
Service Equipment,” it will be considered to be your service disconnect and may be installed in your electrical system upstream from your electrical panel’s main circuit breaker. Installing your transfer switch ahead of your main breaker will require some modifications to the wiring in your current service panel.

independent of the battery switch


Explanation:
The power supply for bilge pumps should, by the way, be independent of the battery switch so power is always available, regardless of its position - http://www.cruisingworld.com/how/wire-and-plumb-your-bilge-p...

-----

My bilge pumps are independent of the circuit breaker (they are independently fused). - http://www.whalercentral.com/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=...

----------

My preference is to supply bilge pumps with power independent of the vessel's house battery switch and distribution panel's main circuit breaker - http://rjwsurvey.com/uploads/Plumbing_the_Depths.pdf
