1.0 INTRODUCTION
Generator Tap Boxes are designed to easily connect temporary power from a portable
generator to a building or plant
. PSI Control Solutions’ Generator Tap Box is an
enclosed junction box for both portable generator Cam-Lok and hard-wired
connections. The assembly consists of an enclosure with front and bottom access door
and removable interior cover, along with Cam-Lok receptacles, busbar and mechanical
lugs. Figure 1 depicts a basic application of the Generator Tap Box integrated with a
transfer switch. When utility failure occurs, quickly connect a portable generator to the
tap box via Cam-Lok connectors and transfer the load to the generator at the transfer
switch. The Generator Tap Box is typically mounted outdoors and hardwired to the
indoor switchboard or transfer switch.
