Introduction
The Eaton 10 Circuit Manual Transfer Switch is
intended to be used with Eaton generators but
may be used with any generators. These Manual
Transfer Switches are rated for 50 amp utility input
and 30 amp or 50 amp generator input respec-
tively at 240 Vac. These devices come equipped
to power nine emergency circuits. There are eight
single-pole emergency circuit breakers and one
2- pole emergency circuit breaker included.
These devices are intended for use with genera-
tors that are wired as either Separately Derived
systems (neutral and ground bonded together
at the generator – typically protected by a GFCI,
ground fault circuit interrupter, on the generator)
or Non-Separately Derived systems (neutral and
ground are NOT bonded at the generator). Refer
to the NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, for
proper connection and further definition.
Contact the generator manufacturer if you
are unsure how the generator is configured
(Separately Derived or Non-Separately Derived). It
is extremely important that you know this informa-
tion prior to connecting the generator to this or
any other transfer switch.
