What is the difference between the GenerLink and a Transfer Switch?
The Generlink is designed as an alternative to a transfer switch. There are some differences between the two.
A transfer switch may require re-wiring of your home’s electrical system, The Generlink is installed right after the meter and feeds power right to the panel.
Transfer switches often have 6-8 hard wired circuits which limits the number of circuits you can connect to a transfer switch. This limits the number of appliances and outlets you want to power through the transfer switch. The Generlink is mounted right after the meter feeding power to the entire breaker panel Meaning you can pick and choose which appliances and outlets you want to power by isolating them at the breaker panel up to the capacity of your generator.
Transfer switch usually only has a few 240 volts circuits which restricts you on the big appliances you want to operate while the power is out like your hot water heater or over. Where the Generlink supplies power to your entire power breaker so you can power any appliances you want if the generator that you have will handle the load.
What size generator do I need for the GenerLink?
Your generator should be big enough to run the largest appliances that you want to power during a power outage. Generlink offers a 30amp service or a 40amp service just depending on what appliances you have and want to power.
Will GenerLink work with any generator?
The Generlink will work with any 240-volt generator that has a 14-30amp plug. If you have questions on whether your generator will work, call us at 435-494-1975.
How do I connect my generator to a GenerLink?
When you purchase a Generlink it comes with a specially designed cord. Insert the four-blade prong of the cord into the outlet on your generator then plug the cord into the receptacle on your Generlink. You will know the cord is plugged in and in place when you hear a snapping sound once inserted.
How can I tell if utility power is back so I can turn off my generator?
The Generlink has three indicator lights: Green, yellow, and Red.
The green indicator light means that there is normal utility power. You can de-energize and disconnect your generator from GenerLink.
The yellow indicator light means that your house’s energy load is more than 30 amps. You should reduce the energy load by turning off circuit breakers before operating your GenerLink with a generator. Note: it is normal for the yellow indicator light to be lit up while utility power is present.
The red indicator light (either lit up on its own, or at the same time as the green light) means there could be a problem with your GenerLink. If you have any issues with your GenerLink be sure to give our team a shout at Hutch Mountain at 435-494-1975.
What happens if utility power is restored while my generator is running with the GenerLink?
Your generator will continue to power your home until you turn the generator off, then if you have the automatic transfer once the generator is turned off the generlink will automatically transfer back to utility. If the Manual transfer is installed once the generator is turned off the generlink will have to be manually transferred from generator power back to utility power.
What happens with GenerLink when the power comes back on?
Depends on if you have the automatic transfer for the manual transfer. With the automatic transfer when the utility power comes back on the generlink will automatically transfer from generator power to utility power. With the Manual transfer you must go out to the meter and manually break the generator power and manually transfer over to make the utility power.
Is GenerLink legal?
Generlink is legal with most utility companies in the United States!
