The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM DPST Switch designed for the GP3800A, GP5600A, and GP6600A series portable generators. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the full OEM designation, meaning it meets the same electrical specifications as the original component installed at the factory. It fits across a broad range of GP-series generator configurations, including EPA and CSA-certified models and wheel-kit variants. If your generator's switch has failed, cracked, or is no longer making consistent contact, this is the correct direct replacement to restore proper operation.
Key Features
- Correct Switching Geometry and Contact Rating — Genuine OEM construction ensures the dual-pole single-throw configuration matches the original electrical load and contact specifications of the GP-series generator circuit.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same mounting footprint and terminal arrangement as the factory-installed switch, allowing straightforward removal and reinstallation without reworking wiring or brackets.
- Broad GP-Series Compatibility — Fits GP3800A, GP5600A, GPS5600A, GP6600A, and GPS6600A generator models across EPA and CSA configurations, with and without wheel kits.
- Restores Full Generator Control — A functioning DPST Switch is essential for cleanly interrupting both hot legs of the load simultaneously; a faulty switch can cause erratic power output or prevent the generator from shutting down properly.
- Electrical Safety Integrity — As a primary control switch in a power-generating system, using a genuine OEM part ensures the switching action meets the insulation and contact ratings required for safe generator operation under load.
A double-pole single-throw (DPST) switch controls two separate electrical circuits simultaneously with a single actuator, either opening or closing both poles at the same time. In a portable generator, this type of switch is typically used as a main power or circuit control, interrupting both conductors of an AC load in one action to ensure complete isolation when the unit is switched off. When a DPST switch fails — through worn contacts, a cracked housing, or internal arcing — the generator may become difficult to control, fail to shut off cleanly, or present a shock risk to the operator, making prompt replacement critical.
