Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS)
Our Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) follows international IEC/EN 60947-2 and CE safety standards. They ensure your power stays steady between the grid and your generator. Each unit features two 4-pole MCCBs paired with an intelligent control module. When grid power drops, the ATS shifts the load to your generator to keep things running. Once utility power returns, it safely switches back. The built-in controller checks for voltage drops or surges. If it detects any, it automatically shifts to protect your equipment. This happens even if the grid is active but unstable.
Description
Key Features
- Performs automatic transfer between the generator and the network power sources
- Built with a 4-pole Generator MCCB and Network MCCB for complete circuit protection
- Available in current ratings from 100A up to 800A
- Rated insulation voltage of 750V AC
- Rated impulse withstand voltage of 8kV
- Short-circuit breaking capacity options: 36kA and 65kA Icu
- Compliant with all requirements of EN 60947-2 safety standards.
Automatic Transfer Switches switch power between two sources when the main supply fails. They have a mechanical interlock to prevent back-feed and ensure safe operation. This ensures continuous operation with improved safety and minimal disruption for your equipment

FAQs
What does an automatic transfer switch do?
An ATS monitors your primary power source. It detects failures or dangerous voltage changes. Then, it signals your generator to start and shifts your electrical load to the backup source. This auto changeover switch lets your business run smoothly. You won’t need to wait for manual help.
What is the difference between an ATS and a UPS?
An ATS generator system provides long-term power during extended outages. It uses a generator as the backup source. A UPS uses batteries for quick, short-term power. This helps prevent data loss or equipment crashes while a generator starts up.
What should I consider before buying an ATS?
First, find out how much amperage you need. You might need a 100-amp automatic transfer switch. For industrial equipment, a larger one may be necessary. Consider your voltage needs and the power source type. Do you need a solar transfer switch or an auto transfer switch for a generator? Also, check if a three-phase changeover switch is necessary for your facility’s electrical setup.
