With the "slew" of posts lately on backup generators, and transfer switches, I thought I would post this...
In my profesional master electrician and electrical contractor opinion, if you expect to have a power outage for long periods of time, or have intentions of running your house, farm, buisness, ect. off of a generator, INSTAL A TRANSFER SWITCH NOW!!! Do it before you need it, Chances are you may never need it. A manual transfer switch is not that expensive in the big picture. I would reccomend that a licensed electrical contractor install this equipment, and be inspected. How much money are you looking at???
100amp manual transfer switch $329.00 200amp manual transfer switch $510.00 400amp manual transfer switch $775.00
Depending on the situation, most generally these can be installed in 6 to 10 hours. There are several other options availiable also. If you wait till the power is out, you will be left to "afro engineer" a setup that usually involves pulling the meter, or turning off main breaker. NOT RECOMENDED, TO MUCH CAN GO WRONG!!! Call your local electrical contractors and get a quote, have it done right and SAFE!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!! STAY SAFE>>>>
