RA Series
Transfer Switches

The RA automatic transfer switch is integrated Features


with the RS series generator set. These Mechanically interlocked contactor
products are listed to UL 1008, the Standard for
Transfer Switch Safety. The switch and • Long-life, high pressure, silver alloy contact
generator set combination is specifically resists burning and pitting
designed for a simplified, quicker installation. • A powerful and economical solenoid drives the
mechanism
These UL 1008 switches are suitable for
Standby power systems in residential and light UL 489 Listed circuit breaker
commercial applications. These RA products
Solid bus bar connection
adhere to National Electrical Code (NEC) and
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) • Between circuit breaker and transfer switch
requirements.
Neutral and ground bar
The RA transfer switch monitors utility power 24
hours a day and 7 days a week. When utility • Fully rated
power becomes unsatisfactory or fails; the • Bonding jumper on neutral and ground
generator set is signalled to start, then • Silver plated copper ground and neutral bus
automatically transfers the load. When stable
utility voltage returns, the transfer switch will Ease of connection
automatically switch the electrical load from the • Solderless screw type terminals for external
generator to the utility. The homeowner requires power connections
no action.
Aluminium Enclosure
The RA switch is also available in service
entrance models. A service entrance version is • NEMA Type 3R rated
also UL 1008 listed and makes use of a UL 489
listed circuit breaker. 100A and 200A Non-
service entrance switch is certified under CSA
C22.2.

Transfer Switch Mechanism

• A powerful and economical solenoid powers RA Transfer


Switches.
• Independent break-before-make action is common for 2-
pole.
• Mechanical interlock prevents simultaneous closing of
normal and emergency contacts.
• Electrical interlocks prevent simultaneous closing signals to
normal and emergency contacts and interconnection of
normal and emergency sources through the control wiring.
• Long-life, high pressure, silver alloy contacts resist burning
and pitting. Contacts are mechanically held in both normal
and emergency positions for reliable, quiet operation.
Specifications
Voltage rating Transfer switches up to 240 VAC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz.

Amperage rating Transfer switches rated for 100, 200 and 400 A Continuous amperes.

Arc interruption Multiple leaf arc chutes cool and quench the arcs. Barriers prevent interphase
flashover.

Neutral bar A full current-rated neutral bar is standard on enclosed 2-pole transfer switches.

Auxiliary contacts Two contacts rated at 5 A Continuous at 100 VAC or 2.5 A Continuous at 200 VAC
(one for each source) are provided for customer use. Wired to terminal block for
easy access.

Storage temperature -25 °C (-13 °F) to 55 °C (131 °F)

Humidity Up to 90% @ 20 °C

Altitude Up to 2,000 m (6,561 ft) without derating.

Total transfer time Will not exceed 100 m/secs with normal voltage applied to the actuator.
(source-to-source)

Manual operation Transfer switches are equipped with a removable operating handle which allows
handles operation during servicing in order to facilitate troubleshooting with sources of
power disconnected.
