Generac Portable Products Power Transfer System
NOTE: The maximum load allowed through each
Load Manager™ switch is 7200 Watts: 30 Amps at 240 Volts or 60 Amps at 120 Volts.
Per National Electric Code, connection of a generator to any electrical circuit normally powered by an electric utility must be by means of approved transfer switch equipment so as to isolate the electrical circuit from the utility distribution system when the generator is operating. Failure to isolate the electrical circuits by such means may result in injury or death to utility power workers due to backfeed of electrical energy.
CAUTION: Each Load Manager™ switch is for indoor use only. The connection box is a NEMA type 3R, intended for outdoor use.
NEMA stands for National Electrical Manufacturer’s Association.
