Generator transfer switches are devices that allow a building to safely switch between utility power and generator power in the event of a power outage. They are an important part of any emergency preparedness plan, as they can help to keep essential systems running and prevent data loss.
There are two main types of generator transfer switches: manual and automatic. Manual transfer switches require the user to physically switch the power source over to the generator, while automatic transfer switches will do this automatically when the utility power goes out. Automatic transfer switches are more expensive than manual transfer switches, but they are also more convenient and safer.
