Power Transfer System
There’s a lot to consider when choosing a power transfer system for your generator. When you’re looking for help figuring out which power transfer system is right, talk with our team. We are here to help take some of the guesswork out of the process.
Which Electrical Loads Do You Need to Power in an Outage?
First, determine which appliances are most crucial to your functioning during a power loss. For some, this may be as simple as a refrigerator, stove, and a few light appliances. For others, it may include garage door openers, stand-alone freezers, furnaces, and/or even a sump pump. If you have critical medical equipment in your household, such as an oxygen machine, this would also be something to include. Individual needs may vary, but a licensed electrician will be able to help make those decisions, and then set up the configuration of your switch accordingly.
Do I Need a Manual or Automatic Power Transfer System?
There are different benefits of each type of switch. Manual transfer systems are more cost-effective than their automatic counterparts, owing to their ease of fabrication, installation, and the amount of space they occupy. On the other hand, if you experience regular power outages due to weather or anything else, an automatic switch may be more suitable, to provide uninterrupted power. For many, the choice to invest in an automatic power transfer system is the right one and could even be lifesaving.
