Claim 26:
27. A power transfer switch for transferring a load from a connected source to a destination source, comprising:
an abutment member mounted to pivot in a direction of travel between two positions;
said abutment member configured such that during a pivoting motion in said direction, said abutment member acts on and applies force first to a first switch beginning at a first point in the travel of the abutment member, and later to a second switch beginning at a second point in the travel of the abutment member such that said travel between said two positions acts to toggle said first and second switches non-simultaneously;
wherein said abutment member comprises a plurality of abutment surfaces, a first one of said abutment surfaces being spaced from a second one of said abutment surfaces along said direction, said first and second abutment surfaces during said travel urging said first and second switches respectively to non-simultaneously toggle from a first toggle position to a second toggle position.
