Our enclosed generator docking station with main breaker has all the benefits of a generator docking station with the added benefit of a molded case main circuit breaker to provide short circuit protection. Built with a NEMA 3R enclosure, the breaker is cabled to CAM Lock receptacles with 4/0 AWG DLO cable, and the bottom door is interlocked with the main door.
This feature allows access to the CAM Lock receptacles only when the main door has been unlocked and opened. There is also a rotary disconnect mounted on a dead front door behind the main enclosure door to turn the breaker on or off. This combination comes with three Phase LED Pilot Lights L3-L1 L2-L3 L1-L2 with fuse protection installed. Neutral and ground bars installed as standard.
The circuit breakers are rated for:
Amps 208–240 Volts 480 Volts 575–600 Volts
200 100kAIC 65kAIC 25kAIC
400 100kAIC 65kAIC 35kAIC

Description
The generator docking station with included main breaker offered by Salient offers a commercial business fast and safe means of connecting with auxiliary emergency power sources efficiently.
With the docking station installed, all that’s needed is to connect the portable generator by means of Cam-Lok® cables and power the generator to enable swift access to emergency power suitable for powering limited ranges of circuitry and equipment.
The docking station comes in amperage ranges from 200–800 (200, 400, 600, 800) as per the client’s specific needs. Each product is cabled at the main breaker via 4/0 AWG DLO cable, and connection receptacles can be customized to match either male connecti on or female connection configurations.
All docking station products come fitted with rotary-style disconnects for quick connection break in the event of an emergency, or to satisfy mechanical maintenance.
The docking station comes protected by way of a NEMA 3R enclosure suitable for outdoor or indoor mounting. The enclosure offers proof against common dirt and debris; water ingress from rain, snow, and hail; and impact resistance, as well as a degree of protection for personnel working near the docking station and connected generator.
Our generator docking station with the main breaker is ideal for a wide range of commercial and industrial businesses, including warehouses, performance halls, food service and hospitality, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, gas stations and fuel storage centers, and more.

Docking stations are an ideal and cost-efficient means of providing a commercial business with a no-mess and highly safe means of connecting to portable generators and other temporary power sources. In the event of an outage, the generator or load bank can be connected via installed Cam-Lok cables and engaged.
The docking station is wired to predetermined circuits to prepare for an outage or emergency situation, or for use during common maintenance and repairs. Powered appliances or circuits commonly include HVAC, emergency and standard lighting, refrigeration equipment, PA and communications systems, computers and data banks, and similar systems.
This saves time and offers swift emergency power, and also drastically minimizes the risks of connecting a portable generator directly to circuits or without predetermined connections.
Docking stations paired with a main breaker are ideal for businesses with a strict budget regarding emergency power, or for businesses with simplistic emergency electrical needs that fall short of needing a dedicated standby generator.
