LOAD SHEDDING
DEvICE
create priority loads to ensure
home comfort during a power
loss! the powermaster is a load
shedding device that allows
a home owner to operate two
large electrical loads instead
of only one large appliance.
examples of this include a
central air conditioner or an
electrical hot water heater. when
the priority load is running,
the powermaster will lock out
the other piece of equipment,
keeping it from turning on until
the demand is satisfied for the
priority load. after the demand is
satisfied, the powermaster allows
the secondary load to come
online and operate.
transfer switches
AUTOMATIC TrANSfEr SWITCHES
as a part of the generator system, the transfer switch transfers the electrical load onto the
generator when power fails. when utility voltage returns, the transfer switch safely returns
circuit coverage back to the utility.
Distributed Load Center
Generac offers three models of automatic transfer switches for homeowners who
choose to back up selected circuits rather than the entire house. pre-wired load
center models are available with a choice of 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16-circuits.
Generac makes installation easy and inexpensive.
all distributed load center models include:
• 30 ft. pre-wired conduit for connecting the transfer
switch to the external connection box
• 2 ft. pre-wired conduit for moving circuits from
the main panel to the transfer switch
• Pre-wired external connection box with a weather-proof
conduit for generator connections
PowerManager™ Load Shedding Transfer Switch
the powermanager lts is designed to allow the most efficient use of the generator by
monitoring and managing the backed up selected and non-selected circuits.
if the generator approaches overload condition, the non-selected circuits are
cycled off, allowing the selected circuits to remain powered. this switch is
designed to operate with the digital controls that are used on single-phase
air-cooled and liquid-cooled generators from 17 kw through 48 kw.
• Housed in an aluminum NEMA 3R, outdoor rated enclosure
• Service entrance rated at 200 Amps with built-in 16 circuit
priority load center
• Main contactor protects the selected priority circuits while the
secondary contactor protects the remaining, non-selected
circuits located in the existing electrical panel
• Cover is side hinged for easy access
RTS Transfer Switches
rts transfer switches are designed for a wide variety of applications that
require up to 400 amps. the rts is integrated with the r-series digital
controller and operates only with standby generators thru 60 kw.
nema 3r (outdoor rated) enclosures are standard.
RTS-N
(Single and Three-Phase)
use rts-n models for custom installations or with
applications that require a sub-panel.
• 100, 200, or 400 Amp
RTS-E with Service Disconnect
(Single-Phase)
use rts-e models with service disconnect for quick and
easy installations.
• 100, 200, or 400 Amp
• Service-entrance rated and UL Listed (U.S. only)
(shown without cover)
for use with units
up to 60 kW
