200A 1ph 120/240V Generac Service Entrance Rated Automatic Transfer Switch 3R With Load Shedding.
The PowerManager LTS is designed to allow the most efficient use of the generator by monitoring and managing the backed up essential and non-essential circuits. If the generator approaches overload condition, the non-essential circuits (Main Panel) are cycled off, allowing essential circuits to remain powered, up to 16. The non-essential load is programable to try and restart (the main panel) once every minute, or not at all. It features a built-in, 16-circuit priority load center, a main contactor that protects the essential circuits and a secondary contactor that protects non-essential circuits. The service entrance-rated, NEMA 3R outdoor/indoor-rated enclosure has a side-opening hinged cover and conforms to 2008 National Electrical Code sizing standards.
