 Manual Transfer Switch

2.3 Storage

Although well packaged, this equipment is not suitable for 

outdoor storage.  The equipment warranty will not be applica-

ble if there is evidence of outdoor storage.  If the equipment 

is to be stored indoors for any period of time, it should be 

stored with its protective packaging material in place.  Pro-

tect the equipment at all times from excessive moisture, con-

struction dirt, corrosive conditions, and other contaminants.

It is strongly suggested that the package-protected equip-

ment be stored in a climate-controlled environment with tem-

peratures from -20 to 85°C (-22 to 185°F) and with a 

relative humidity of 80% or less.  DO NOT, under any circum-

stance, stack other equipment on top of a transfer switch 

equipment enclosure, whether packaged or not.

Section 3: Equipment Description

3.1 General

Eaton transfer switch equipment is available in four different 

configurations:

   Automatic Transfer Switch

   Maintenance Bypass Transfer Switch

   Manual Transfer Switch (Manually Operated)

   Non-automatic Transfer Switch (Electrically Operated)

Refer to Section 1 for a discussion of the four types. Each 

transfer switch is usually supplied in an enclosure, although 

un-mounted sub-assemblies can be supplied for mounting by 

the customer. Since the enclosed automatic transfer switch 

encompasses all transfer switch equipment possibilities, it is 

the only specific type that will be discussed in this section.

Figure 6. Typical Vertical Design Power Panel (Unmounted).

The enclosed automatic transfer switch consists of three 

basic panels interconnected through connector plugs and 

mounted in an enclosure (Figures 4, 5, 15 and 16):

2. Voltage Selection Panel

3. Logic Panel.
