Reliance Controls Corporation specializes in products that help integrate portable generators into homes and businesses safely during power outages. Their "control units" primarily refer to their manual transfer switches and time switches.

Product Details

Primary Product Focus: Reliance Controls "control units" are mainly Manual Transfer Switches (like the Pro/Tran® and Panel/Link® series) and Time Switches.
Manual Transfer Switches: These devices allow you to safely switch selected circuits in your home or business from utility power to generator power during an outage. They physically isolate the generator from the utility grid, preventing dangerous backfeeding.

Types: Available in various circuit capacities (e.g., 6, 10, 30 circuits) and amperage ratings (e.g., 30A, 50A, up to 200A for main panel transfer switches).
Enclosures: Available for indoor (NEMA 1) or outdoor (NEMA 3R) installation.
Loadside Transfer: Many Reliance transfer switches are "Loadside," meaning they transfer the load after the branch circuit breakers, simplifying installation.

Time Switches: These units automatically control lighting, water heaters, and other electrical devices based on a set schedule. They are typically spring-wound or motor-driven.

Product Parameters (Examples for Transfer Switches)

Amperage Rating: Typically 30 Amps, 50 Amps, 150 Amps, 200 Amps.
Voltage: 120/240 VAC (single-phase is most common for residential).
Wattage Rating: Matches generator output, e.g., up to 7500 Watts for 30A switches.
Number of Circuits: Common configurations include 6, 8, 10, 12, or more circuits. Some larger units allow for transferring the entire service.
Enclosure Type: NEMA 1 (indoor) or NEMA 3R (outdoor, rain-tight).
Conduit Length: Often includes a flexible, non-metallic liquid-tight conduit for easy connection to the main panel.
Certifications: UL Listed, ensuring safety standards are met.

Product Advantages

Safety: The primary advantage is safe and compliant power transfer, eliminating the dangerous practice of "backfeeding" the utility grid.
Convenience: Allows direct powering of hardwired appliances (furnace, well pump, lights, wall outlets) without extension cords.
Ease of Installation: Designed for relatively straightforward installation by a qualified electrician, often featuring pre-wired components and clear labeling.
Reliability: Built with durable components for long-lasting performance.
Cost-Effective Backup: Provides a practical and affordable solution for leveraging a portable generator for home backup power.
Circuit Selectivity: Allows users to select which specific circuits they want to power from the generator, optimizing generator fuel consumption.

Important Considerations

Professional Installation: While designed for ease of installation, transfer switches must be installed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical codes.
Generator Sizing: Ensure the transfer switch's wattage and amperage ratings are compatible with your portable generator's output. Do not exceed the transfer switch's rating.
Circuit Capacity: Choose a transfer switch with enough circuits to power your essential loads during an outage.
Indoor vs. Outdoor: Select the appropriate NEMA rating based on the intended installation location.
Load Management: Understand that a portable generator has limited power; you cannot power your entire home simultaneously unless it's a very large whole-house generator and transfer switch system. You will need to manage your loads.
Maintenance: While generally low maintenance, inspect connections periodically and ensure the switch operates smoothly.

Product Applications

Residential Backup Power: Safely powering essential home circuits (furnace, refrigerator, lights, well pump, garage door opener) during utility power outages using a portable generator.
Small Business Backup: Providing backup power for critical systems in small offices, shops, or restaurants.
Agricultural: Powering pumps, lighting, or other equipment in barns or agricultural facilities during outages.
Construction Sites: Providing temporary power for tools and lighting.
Remote Cabins/Off-Grid Systems: While not a primary off-grid solution, some Reliance products can be integrated into systems where a generator supplements other power sources.
