The ability to switch power loads without the knowledge or action of a human worker can save companies from disastrous results. Imagine an agricultural warehouse full of products that must be kept at appropriate temperatures; If power goes out at night, product can go bad before someone arrives to handle the issue. An Automatic Transfer Switch can take care of the problem immediately and the functionality of the ASCO 230 Amps NEMA3R 480V switch works well in commercial, light industrial, retail and warehouse environments.What is anAutomatic Transfer Switch?An Automatic Transfer Switch is a mechanism that switches the draw of power from the electrical grid to a generator, or series of generators, set up for a facility. Unlike a manual switch, which always requires human intervention, an automatic switch can act on its own to make the necessary changes to keep a facility or critical equipment powered up.How does the ASCO 230 Amps NEMA3R 480VAutomatic Transfer Switchoperate?The Automatic Transfer Switch is equipped with logical programming that lets it determine when power on the grid has failed or is abnormal. When that occurs, the switch directs the generators to power up. Once generators are able to produce the right amount of voltage for the machines or facility, the automatic switch takes power load from the grid and places it on the generator. Once grid power is restored and is functioning appropriately, the Automatic Transfer Switch recognizes that and returns facility power loads to the grid. After a set amount of time, the switch directs the generators to power down.Features of the ASCO 230 Amps NEMA3R 480VAutomatic Transfer Switchβ’ All of the ASCO Series 300 Automatic Transfer Switche
