What Are Manual Transfer Switches for Generator Power Supplies?
A manual transfer switch allows for quick access to generator power through the use of, of course, a manual switch. The switch is installed alongside your main electrical panel and, when in use, will swap power from your main supply to the generator, powering predetermined circuits to the business owner’s specifications. This simplifies generator access, allowing you to resume business at a critical time without pause.
The use of a transfer switch also aids in the overall use of your generator, bypassing the need for the use of cumbersome and time-consuming cables that also reduce overall efficiency.
The Benefits of a Manual Transfer Switch
Utilizing a manual switch in your business can contribute quite a bit to your overall success, as well as help protect and insulate you against loss during an outage. Benefits include:
- Quick and simple fabrication and installation
- Heightened control over the power in your commercial business in the event of an emergency or power loss
- Protection of investments and assets with high-quality and safe products that allow for simple generator use
UL Listed Manual Transfer Switches with Salient
Your manual transfer switch needs can change according to your overall electricity requirements and the size and location of your commercial business. This is due to transfer switches coming in different “sizes,” though in this case the term “size” specifically refers to the amperage your generator crease and needs to safely route to your business when in use.
In this way, the size of your generator and your overall electrical needs (the power needed to operate and maintain your predetermined circuits) directly impacts the amperage specifics of your manual transfer switch.
No matter your needs, the industry-leading engineers at Salient can provide the proper transfer switch to meet your needs. All of our manual transfer switches include:
