Customer Reviews For The Honeywell RTG16EZA3H 16-circuit 100 Amp Load Center ATS - NEMA 3 CUL
The Honeywell 16-Circuit 100 Amp Load Center Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) with a NEMA 3 enclosure is engineered to provide reliable backup power for essential household circuits during utility outages. Unlike the NEMA 1 indoor-only model, this version is housed in a rugged, weather-resistant enclosure, making it the first limited-circuit switch certified for outdoor installation. It is specifically designed to work with air-cooled standby generators (typically ranging from 8kW to 24kW), allowing homeowners to prioritize critical loads like well pumps, refrigerators, and security systems when backing up the entire property is not required.
This 100 Amp switch features an integrated load center with 16 circuit spaces that can be expanded to 24 circuits by utilizing tandem breakers. The unit is pre-wired to streamline the installation process and includes weatherproof conduits for secure generator connections. Built with a heavy-duty contactor and an aluminum or steel enclosure finished with protective baked powder paint, it is designed for long-term durability in harsh environments. By managing all sensing and timing functions through the generator's controller, this ATS provides a seamless, automated transition to backup power, ensuring household stability and safety regardless of external conditions.
