High Quality Components and Well though Out.
This is an excellent kit. Basically, everything needed for installation is included, from the transfer switch to the exterior-rated connector to the building. Even the umbilical cable for connecting to the generator is of high quality.
I had an electrician do the wiring for me, but could have done it myself with the nice videos that are offered online for these. My electrician, who has been in the business for many years (over 30), was impressed by the quality of the unit, and that the transfer switch came pre-wired, with lettering on the wiring to identify each circuit breaker chosen. The option for commonly available non-propriety replacement circuit breakers, if ever needed, was an added bonus. My electrician admitted that the unit was a more practical and safer solution than what he used at his own home for emergency generator use.
This is the one to buy if you are looking for a nice package that is well engineered, and of good quality materials. In my opinion, it is well worth a few extra dollars over other competing units. Do yourself a favor and be sure to get the current version of this with non-propriety circuit breakers.
Everything you need, with the exception of the wiring from the plug to transfer switch, is included.
I am very impressed with what I received in the kit and would definitely buy again if needed for another property.Read full review

Quality product!!
As an electrician this product is excellent! It has real GE circuit breakers unlike the cheaper ones that are a push button type. Very well made and easy to install. The metal flex is quite short but that can be changed easy at installation. They even give you both connectors to go into the panel, a 90degree and a straight type. Highly recommend this unit has everything needed to power the house except an electrician to install it.Read full review

Great Product, BUY IT NOW IF YOU ARE BACK FEEDING YOUR BREAKER BOX!!!
Very well built transfer switch, wires were long enough to meet my needs in my breaker box.
The only con I have is the labeling on the wires was a bit hard to read, but when I got my glasses on and figured out the position of the labeling, I was fine. Already tested it out with my crappy 18 year generator, and it worked great. I really need to get one of those inverter style generators to run my state-of-art furnace.Read full review

Well constructed and Compact
Well made and easy installing. Unit has to be close to your electrical (18 inches or less) and accessible.
Should enter from the bottom or wires may be short. But this product does the job.
Pro's: Quality and easy installation.
Cons : wires maybe short if not careful

Excellent choice for a transfer switch.
Great transfer switch for a backup generator. Comes with almost everything you need, and is easily customizable. I needed more switch ties, so I called the company to order them. They sent them to me at no charge. My circuits required dual pole breakers, and it was easy to find the parts I needed at my local hardware store. The only parts I had to purchase were the different breakers (Siemens QP), 10-3 wire for the external inlet, wire staples, NM box clamps and mounting hardware (in my case, masonry screws). All things a local hardware store should have. The transfer switch can handle 30 amps and has 1 dual pole 30 amp slot. The other 8 slots can be either 15 or 20 amps and can all handle dual pole circuits (10 individual or 5 dual pole). It took most of a weekend to install, and can be done by 1 person. The installer should have good knowledge of electrical wiring, code, and safety as this connects directly to the main breaker panel. All parts included are high quality and I expect to get many years of use from this system. Read full review

Great safety product for any home backup generator.
High quality product and straight forward to install. Manufacturer's installation video (a series of 6 videos) on You-tube is truly exceptional. This product is number one transfer switch for many good reasons. Read full review

Well made product
I was impressed with this product - it uses actual GE circuit breakers, has large copper bus bars, and the switch quality is excellent. All of the supplied accessories are good quality as well, better than I've been seeing with most products. Recommended!Read full review

easy install for amateurs
Great product. Bought one for my last house several years ago. It was an easy install. Bought again for new house. It was a bit more labor intensive due to having a recessed electic panel but the reliance switch and youtube videos really made it another easy install. I have no electrical experience but was able to install without any problems.
Product arrived early. I was able to download manual before it arrived and had most of wire to the outside all done. Make sure you know exactly what guage wire and how many strands you need by reading directions!Read full review
