Q: Will this transfer switch work with Generac 16kw generator #5254?
by Stefan from Pennsylvania on May 14, 2012

A: This switch will work but you would require a special kit to connect to the battery charger. This kit would have to be installed by a certified Generac dealer.

These kits are available from your local Generac dealer - Part Number: OH93030SRV.

Q: What is the difference between the Generac Nexus Smart Switch (100 Amp) automatic transfer switch for $349 and the Generac Nexus Smart Switch (100 Amp) automatic transfer switch (Service Entrance) for $499?

Thank you for your time and consideration.
by Cecil Camune from Illinois on January 29, 2011

A: The "Service Entrance" type automatic transfer switch has a built in shut off switch to power can be turned off to perform service on the generator without backlash from utility power. This type of switch is normally required by code to be installed if used in a whole house application and mounted between the meter and electrical panel being powered.

The "Standard" type automatic transfer switch does not include this service entrance feature and is normally installed when the generator is powering a sub-panel.

Jim's Recommendation

The Generac RTSD200A3 is the same automatic transfer switch that comes standard with the best-selling Generac 5875 smart circuit standby generator system.

This "Smart Switch" is unique because it comes equipped with two Digital Load Managers (DLM) already built-in to control two standard AC units.

Best of all, if you have multiple high-voltage appliances, your electrician can install up to 4 more separate DLMs (total of 6) to protect your generator system from overloading. This is a separate accessory you will need to buy.

The separate DLM modules are used to alternate two high-voltage appliances - like electric water heaters or well pumps. It basically allows you to energize your entire electrical panel - not just essential circuits.

This 100-Amp automatic transfer switch is service entrance rated so it is installed between the meter and main electrical panel.

 Best Investment Ever

I got Generac Guardian 5884 with 100 amp service rated ATS and couldn't be happier.

Running on generator power for third day due to snow storm, and no problems at all.
Got heat hot water and lights, generator is running 24 hours a day.

With temperature in the 30s in the morning generator runs like champ. great piece of equipment.
