The transfer panel includes a 200A main circuit breaker interlinked with a 30A - 125A generator breaker feeding a heavy-duty copper bus with feed-through lugs.
This transfer panel is suitable for service entrance and may be used as a main panel or feed-through to a sub-panel or main panel but is ideal for applications requiring the entire service panel to be available for generator power if you have 200A service.
This particular model is rated for outdoor use and can handle a generator up to 12.5kW with 50Amps.
One thing to mention is that this does not come with a power inlet box, so you will need to purchase this separately.

4th one I’ve ordered. Great for rural, has 200A main breaker that can install at meter, has breaker for generator, and 8 breaker slots if power is needed for outbuildings, etc. Plus it’s 200 bucks cheaper here than at the big box store. For a manual transfer, it’s money well spent

Great alternative to new code which calls for outdoor main breaker. This gives you a service rated switch plus portable generator interlock all in one

Excellent Features and Great Value

Review Posted 03/04/2024
This transfer pannel was exactly what I needed to get my generator connector to my house power. There is plenty of room for running heavy gauge wire and bending it without kinking. The panel is good qualtity proved to be easy to mount and install. The knockouts were positioned perfectly for my application and wiring was quite easy.

Just what I needed to attach my generator to my house. Has the inside space to make it easy for the electrician to maneuver the large 200 amp cable into position. Very happy with the product and whole heartedly recommend.

Great Transfer Panel

Review Posted 06/29/2023
I had an electrician permit and install this panel. The electrician was initially skeptical installing a panel he had never used before, but once he was done he was actually very happy with it and recorded the model number for using for projects for his company going forward.

If you buy the Reliance Controls 200-Amp Outdoor Manual Transfer Panel how do you meter your usage so you don't over power generator - 12500 @ 50 mp gen?

Hi Jim, I am looking at your Generac 15kw. The place of installment has a 200A service with a 50A/240V CB for the stove and a 20A/240V CB for the large door. I do not look forward to wiring a transfer switch inside as the layout is not good. Putting the switch next to the outside box makes more sense to me. What do you recommend? Do you sell a 200A switch without CBs? I do not know what the NEC states but it seems if all circuits already have CBs and as the generator has a CB, it would be safe. Only thing the owner will have to monitor what is on at once. Thanks for your help. Steve

I want to be able to use my portable generator (8000W) to supply power to my entire 200A breaker panel so I can pick and choose and switch the circuits I power on. What is the easiest way to do this?

Hi Mike. I bought a 17.5 kw Generac and want to use it to power the whole house. Is there a way to get more than 50 amps to a transfer switch.? What transfer switch would you choose?

I have a Honda EB5000X generator and I would like to know what transfer switch you would recommend I use. I know I can not run my whole home but I would like to be able to turn some things on and off as needed.
