Stag Power Rentals offers automatic and manual transfer switch rentals for temporary power applications throughout Houston and the Gulf Coast. A transfer switch is a critical safety component that allows you to connect a rental generator to your facility’s electrical system without backfeeding the utility grid.
What Is a Transfer Switch?
A transfer switch is an electrical device that transfers a load between two power sources — typically from utility power to a generator. It prevents both sources from being connected simultaneously, which protects utility workers, your equipment, and your facility.
- Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS): Detects a utility outage and automatically switches to generator power within seconds
- Manual Transfer Switch: Requires operator intervention to switch between utility and generator power
When Do You Need a Transfer Switch Rental?
- Connecting a rental generator to an existing facility electrical system
- Planned utility outages for facility maintenance or upgrades
- Hurricane and storm contingency power planning
- Temporary power bridging during permanent ATS installation or repair
- Construction sites requiring a safe generator-to-building connection
