I need a switch for a well pump. It needs to switch both lines for a 240vac pump. I need it as a switch for manual use and as a Hubitat device for remote control. Can anyone recommend a 240vac, double-pole, double-throw switch model? I can't seem to find one that is compatible.
Thank you.
Welcome to the community!
Sinopé Technologies makes one that works well.
Do you really need a double-throw version or just On/Off (double-pole for two phases is OK?
For my kitchen range/stove On/Off control I am using this contactor:
(this is Normally Closed version but Normally Open version exist as well).
The contactor itself is controlled by ZOOZ ZEN-51 ZWave Relay.
Together these two creates a very nice (a bit DIY) High Current Zwave Relay.

I recently installed the Sinopé for my well pump and am very pleased with it.
I wish I had been monitoring my well pump before. It would have saved me about $6,000 by telling me my well pump was running frequently in the middle of the night, indicating a leak. Instead, I found out after the well pump had worn out from running continuously.
Im using a Zooz Zen17 to directly control both legs of my 240V pump via Hubitat with Rule Machine. Then a basic double pole breaker to bypass it for manual On/Off.
Also has a couple inputs for a tank float switch or what ever you want.

I use a contactor, controlled by a Z Wave switch.
