Transfer/Bypass-Isolation Switches
The automatic transfer switch is a key element in
any emergency power system. The importance
of the transfer switch increases as the need for
dependable power grows. Though designed to
give consistent operation, the automatic transfer
switch must be periodically maintained to
ensure proper operation and system reliability.
Maintenance of the entire system is called for in
the National Electrical Code Article 700-4, NEMA

Standard ICS2-447 and in NFPA 99.
