30 Amp 250-Volt 7500-Watt Non-Fuse 6-Circuit Transfer Switch Kit

Good quality product Strait-forward installation. In my case I used optional trim and it looks very nice

I was looking at options for a generator transfer switch. I looked at single switches, automatic switches, interlock kits and manual transfer switches. After a lot of research and watching a large number of videos, I opted for this one. It did everything I needed at an amazing price. Although, I consider myself fairly handy, I decided to hire an electrician to do the installation. He quoted me what I thought was a reasonable price. When he saw the switch, he was amazed that it came with all the wiring and conduit as he thought he was going to have to wire the switch itself. He was impressed with how fast the installation went. One thing we figured out is that it is much easier to feed the wires through the conduit if you first remove the bushings. They are split so they can be easily reinserted in the conduit over the wire bundle. He ended up discounting his fee by a substantial amount since his initial quote was based on his assumption that he was going to have to provide all the wiring and conduit. The electrical inspector did not even open the main panel when he did his inspection - he opened the switch to make sure the wires were the right gauge, saw they were factory installed and saw the UL sticker. He asked a few questions about how the switch connects to the main panel (which I knew between all the videos I watched and my watching the electrician install the switch. He asked if we had tested it (which we had), and signed off on the installation. Easy, peasy. Now, hopefully, I won't ever (or if I do, very infrequently) have to use this product.

This Reliance Controls 300amp Transfer Switch Kit was surprisingly easy to install. It took me approximately two to three hours to install including the outside Transfer plug. This will be much better hooking up instead of running extension cords. THANKS!!!!

Control is well built and works fine. Installation instruction Fig 5 on Page 7 fails to identify the "red" wire going to the Furnace Circuit Breaker. This is a major problem and needs to be corrected.

This kit is the cats meow. So well built and thought out. If you are looking to back up some of your house during a storm / loss of power, this is the way to go. Makes backing up power easy and safe. My only complaint is that it took me some time to find one!

Works fantastic. Install was a breeze. We did a simulated outage and it worked perfectly. I know for a fact that two people have bought this item because of the input I gave them regarding this product. My father n law and a close personal friend are owners of a Pro Tran 2 transfer manual switch.

This kit comes with everything you need to complete a very simple installation. The components are high quality and well marked for identification. Watch a YouTube video for additional insights and you will easily figure out how to get it done. I had no problems and I am no electrician.

just what I needed! sturdy, heavy bugger! installed with the optional flush mount kit. makes install cleaner and tucks a good 3" of panel into the wall. had to trim the pigtail for my needs but not a big deal. the 10' cord is a plus. additional flex or conduit and, at least, #10 wire to plumb in the exterior plug. I had to fabricate a different cord because my portable gen has a 20A outlet. so I can, if need be, get 20' of cord using both cords. again, make sure you use a heavy gauge wire! it is limited to 6 circuits max (split the double pole breaker) but is sufficient for what I need until I get a permanent standby system to run the whole house and well. will leave this installation as an emergency backup to the future backup (worst case...).

Great Product. I did however have the same issue some others had where only some of the six circuits came on line when I transferred to generator, although when in line mode everything worked, so I knew my wiring install was correct. The issue are the internal leads becoming lose , either from the install, the factory or shipping. To correct the issue, Shut you main power down, absolutely make sure nothing is energized, and make sure you have a good flash light or spot light. Open the Reliance panel, pull the breakers out without disconnecting them and try to manipulate the leads back on the back. Some folks had to un screw the top plate and fold out the bus, I was lucky. In my case just manipulating the leads and making sure everything was snug corrected the issue. Now, why did I say don’t take the breakers wires out? Especially with the 20 AMP breakers, but all of them on this Reliance model , have short nice and neat looped wires to the breaker itself, if you disconnect them, plan on splicing new 2 inch cables to get enough room to work and insert the wires back into the back of the breaker. Obviously,This is not a full sized panel, so working space is limited. This was the only issue I ran into, it took me longer to figure out where to mount it , and opening up some dry wall for a recessed install.
