Equipment Description

The transfer switch is designed to transfer the selected loads found
in normal residential installations when used with the supervisory
contacts provided. The load is connected either to utility power
(normal) or home standby power (generator). The transfer switch
monitors utility and generator voltages and will automatically
connect to the appropriate source of power.
These switches make it easy for a licensed electrician to complete
a home standby installation. Service conduit and conductors can
be wired directly from the watt-hour meter to the transfer switch.
A separate disconnect and associated wiring is not required when
installed per applicable federal, state and local codes, standards and
regulations.
Major components of the transfer switch are a 2 pole utility
disconnect circuit breaker, a 2 pole generator disconnect circuit
breaker, a 2 pole double throw transfer switch, control circuit
board, fused utility terminals and interconnecting wiring. The
control board also has two inputs for current transformers that
sense generator current. These components are housed in a
NEMA 3R enclosure that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor
installations.
The transfer switch is solenoid-operated from utility or generator
inputs and contain suitable mechanical and electrical interlock
switches to eliminate the possibility of connecting the utility service
to the generator output. It has ratings capable of switching full
utility power into the residence. In addition, a manual override lever
is provided for the transfer function.
The control board has active circuits sensing utility and generator
voltages. It creates a signal for generator start-up, switch transfer
and retransfer when utility is restored. The control board also
contains red and green LED's indicating the power sources available
and two relay operated contacts that provide supervisory control of
external loads.
