Automatic Transfer Switches – The Brains of Standby Generator Systems - Wareham, MA

December 4, 2015      

Automatic transfer switches are typically the brains of your standby generator system. Whether they are installed indoors or out, these switches constantly monitor your utility power. When a power outage occurs, your facility will be provided with back-up power because the switch automatically turns on the standby generator, regardless of if you are in the building or not.

When the power fails, it can be very worrisome, especially when you are not on-site. Threats to your business can increase without a security system in place, data can be lost and perishable goods can spoil. Operations critical to your business are hampered. Data can be lost during sudden loss of power. Unexpected power outages are costly which makes it practical to purchase automatic transfer switches for generators in Wareham, MA. When the power goes out, standby generator systems will start immediately transferring the electrical load and restoring power to your business within seconds. Once the power is restored, the generator automatic transfer switch reverses the process, automatically switching off the generator without you commanding it.
