Remote/Transfer Switch

Background A transfer switch is designed to transfer electrical loads from the normal power
source (utility) to the emergency power source (generator) when normal voltage
falls below a prescribed level.
The transfer switch automatically returns the load back to the normal source when
power is restored back to operating levels.
WARNING
Electrocution hazard. Failure to isolate the generator from the utility's electrical
distribution system could cause output from the generator to backfeed into the
utility lines and cause injury or death to utility workers!
When the generator is used as a standby power supply, it must be equipped
with a device which isolates it from the utility's distribution system.
An isolation device is also required if the generator is being used as a backup to
some other type of power supply system.
Precautions Installation of a transfer switch or other type of remote starting device is the
responsibility of the generator user.
Installation of such devices must be performed by a qualified electrician
following all directions supplied by the manufacturer of the switch.
If attaching the generator to a power supply normally serviced by a utility
company, notify the utility company and check local and state regulations.
Familiarize yourself with all instructions and warning labels supplied with the
switch.
CAUTION!
Possibility of injury or equipment damage. Failure to match phase rotation and
voltage may cause equipment connected to the generator to operate incorrectly.
When using the generator as a standby or substitute power supply, make sure
the voltage and phase rotation of the line connections match those of the utility
lines or of any other power source normally used.
DANGER
Electrocution hazard. Lethal voltage is always present in the transfer switch once it
has been properly installed.
Disconnect power before servicing the transfer switch.
