TRANSFER SWITCH INSTALLATION — MANUAL & AUTOMATIC
A transfer switch is the critical safety device that connects your generator to your home's electrical system while preventing dangerous backfeed to the utility grid. Every generator installation requires a properly installed transfer switch. We install both manual transfer switches for portable generator connections and automatic transfer switches (ATS) for standby generator systems.

Do I need a transfer switch for my generator in Port St. Lucie?
Yes — Florida law and the National Electrical Code require a transfer switch for any generator connected to your home's wiring. Without one, your generator can backfeed electricity onto the utility lines, endangering FPL lineworkers and your neighbors. The City of PSL Building Department will not pass a final inspection without a properly installed transfer switch.
What is the difference between a manual and automatic transfer switch?
An automatic transfer switch (ATS) detects a power outage and starts your standby generator automatically — no action required. A manual transfer switch requires you to physically flip a switch to connect your portable generator. ATS units are standard on all standby generator installations; manual switches are used when connecting a portable generator to a home's wiring.
