RA Series | Open Transition | 400A Continuous | Non-Service Entrance | 240V System Voltage
The Cummins RA Series automatic transfer switch is engineered for seamless integration with Quiet Connect RS series generators. This robust automatic transfer switch ensures reliable standby power for residential and light commercial applications. It meets strict UL 1008 and CSA C22.5 safety standards for transfer switch operations. The unit is designed for simplified installation within outdoor-rated enclosures. It adheres to National Electrical Code and National Fire Protection Association requirements. Continuous monitoring of utility power happens 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This ensures immediate response during power failures without homeowner intervention. The system supports 120/240V single-phase service at 60 Hz. Multiple ampacity options exist, including 100, 150, 200, 300, and 400 amps. Service entrance rated versions utilize UL 489 listed circuit breakers for added safety. The aluminum enclosure resists burning and pitting in harsh environments. Solderless screw-type terminals simplify external power connections for technicians. An adjustable voltage relay kit provides essential brownout protection capabilities. This switch delivers a powerful, economical solenoid-driven mechanism for reliable operation. Solid bus bar connections ensure efficient current transfer between components. A fully rated neutral bar and ground bar are standard features. Tin-plated copper materials prevent corrosion on critical grounding points. Mechanical interlocks prevent simultaneous closing of normal and emergency contacts safely. Electrical interlocks further secure control wiring against source interconnection errors. Long-life silver alloy contacts resist burning under high electrical stress. Contacts remain mechanically held in both positions for consistent reliability. Multiple leaf arc chutes cool and quench arcs effectively during interruption. Barriers prevent dangerous interphase flashover events within the enclosure. Auxiliary contacts allow customer use for monitoring or control signals. A 2-year limited warranty covers both parts and labor for peace of mind.
Simplified Installation: The switch and generator set are designed for quicker setup in outdoor enclosures.
Zero-User Intervention: No action is required from the homeowner during utility failure or return.
Robust Safety Compliance: Products adhere to NEC, NFPA, UL 1008, and CSA C22.5 safety standards.
Durable Construction: Aluminum enclosures resist burning and pitting while using NEMA Type 3R ratings.
Advanced Protection: The Adjustable Voltage Relay Kit protects loads against utility brownouts effectively.
The RA transfer switch constantly monitors utility power quality 24 hours a day. It detects failures or unsatisfactory voltage conditions automatically. Upon detection, the system signals the generator set to start immediately. The switch then automatically transfers the electrical load to the generator source. When stable utility voltage returns, the switch re-transfers the load back to utility power. This entire process occurs without any manual action from the homeowner. The mechanism ensures a safe open transition between power sources. Independent break-before-make action prevents short circuits during switching. Mechanical interlocks physically prevent normal and emergency contacts from closing together. Electrical interlocks also prevent simultaneous closing signals through control wiring. This dual-interlock system ensures absolute safety against source interconnection errors. Long-life silver alloy contacts maintain reliability under repeated switching cycles. Contacts are mechanically held in both normal and emergency positions securely. Multiple leaf arc chutes cool and quench arcs during interruption safely. Barriers prevent interphase flashover to protect internal components from damage. Auxiliary contacts provide customer access for monitoring or external control signals. The solid bus bar connection ensures efficient current flow between breakers and the switch.
Power Failure Detection: The switch monitors utility power continuously and signals the generator to start upon failure.
Automatic Load Transfer: It automatically transfers the load to the generator when utility power becomes unsatisfactory.
Safe Return to Utility: The switch switches the load back to utility power when stable voltage returns automatically.
