Essential Circuits
As a Home Generator System owner, it is important that
you clearly identify the circuits in your building that are
"essential" to you. Because the Home Generator System is
equipped with an Automatic
Transfer Switch, your selection
of essential circuits will be transferred to the Home
Generator System within 15 seconds (+/- 5 seconds).
It is important that your installer understand which
circuits
you want to include as "Essential Circuits". Depending on
the power consumed by these circuits, most or all of them
can be switched to the Home Generator System for the
duration of normal power interruption.
The wattage reference guide shown in Figure 3 will assist
you with your decision-making process. It provides the
wattage used by many ordinary household devices. Use it
as a guide when selecting your essential circuits. Review
this information with your installer and ask about any
technical considerations that might affect the cost of your
installation.
