The unseen hero of every standby system: the switch that moves your home from the grid to the generator and back, safely and automatically.
An automatic transfer switch watches utility power. When it detects a failure, it signals the generator to start and moves your circuits to generator power; when utility power returns, it moves them back and lets the generator rest. It also keeps generator power from flowing back onto utility lines, which protects line crews.
Choosing the right switch matters as much as choosing the generator. Service-entrance switches cover the whole panel; smaller sub-panel switches cover chosen circuits; smart switches manage large loads. We match the switch to your service size, panel and goals, then install and label it cleanly.
