Review on πŸ”’ Enhance Generator Safety with the Siemens ECSBPK02 Mechanical Interlock by Roy Niemeyer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Manufacturing issue

This was the locking device I needed. However, the rocker arm was mounted upside down. The lever ends do not point towards the shift handles, but away from them. This did not prevent both switches from being turned on at the same time! When I tried to rotate the mount, it hit the body. When I tried to turn it, the rivet came loose. Luckily I was able to use a punch to securely install the rivet. If the rocker arm is in the correct position, the switch lock will function properly. Too bad I didn't photograph the product before repairing it. The one I got didn't look like the Revain picture because the rocker arm tips on mine weren't pointing towards the wider side of the bracket. At first I thought the mount was for the other side of the panel but it wouldn't work there anyway. Other than this issue, the product works perfectly. Since the lever is now properly aligned, both switches cannot be turned on at the same time.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
