Generac 800A Non-Service Entrance Automatic Transfer Switch

The Generac 800A non-service entrance automatic transfer switch is a critical component in an automatic standby power system. Here are some general features associated with this type of transfer switch:

1. Amperage Capacity:

• The "800A" indicates an amperage capacity of 800 amps, which means it can handle substantial electrical loads.

2. Automatic Transfer Operation:

• The automatic transfer switch is designed to monitor the utility power supply continuously. In the event of a power outage, it automatically transfers the electrical load from the utility to the backup generator. Once utility power is restored, it transfers the load back to the utility source.

3. Non-Service Entrance Rated:

• The term "non-service entrance rated" typically means that the transfer switch is not intended to serve as the main service disconnect but rather as a transfer switch for backup power.

4. Three-Phase Configuration:

• If it's specified as three-phase, the transfer switch is designed to work with three-phase electrical systems commonly found in commercial and industrial settings.

5. Generator Compatibility:

• Compatible with Generac generators or other compatible generators, ensuring a reliable backup power source.

6. Control Panel:

• Equipped with a control panel for easy monitoring, control, and programming of transfer switch settings.

7. Weather-Resistant Enclosure:

• The transfer switch may come housed in a weather-resistant enclosure, suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.

8. Compliance and Safety:

• Built to comply with relevant electrical codes and safety standards to ensure safe and reliable operation.

9. Advanced Features:

• Depending on the model, it might include advanced features such as communication capabilities for remote monitoring, load shedding options, and programmable settings.
