Generac 6852 Reviews & Ratings
If you have a portable generator, you have some peace of mind that if the power goes out you will be able to power the basic necessities. Most of the time you think about the power going out, you think of spring thunderstorms, not winter snow or ice storms. If you have a portable generator, most likely, you cannot power your furnace fan in the event of a power outage without a transfer switch. This 30-amp manual transfer switch allows you to run up to 8 circuits with the ability to upgrade further down the road. When you purchase a portable generator, you want it to be as easy as plug-and-play. This manual transfer switch, when coupled with a power inlet box and power cord, is just that, plug-and-play. Something we consider a "must" when buying a portable generator.

Review Posted 05/20/2023
Great quality product, however it is limited to generators that only use 240vac. The transfer switch solenoid is not compatible with 120 volt generators. This would have been nice to know before purchasing and paying to have it installed. Also the user manual that comes with it is very vague on instructions.

Clearly a high quality, solid unit. Mine was professionally installed in my shop, and testing revealed it to be functioning well. No complaints and my experience was good in terms of fast shipping and communication with EGD. If you are thinking about a Man Tran Switch, it would be hard to do better. TK-Upstate New York.
