How Does a GenerLink Work?

A GenerLink enables the connection of a portable generator directly to the electrical system of your home or business. This is achieved through a transfer switch, which automatically transitions the power source from the utility company to the generator during a power outage. Unlike traditional setups, the GenerLink incorporates the transfer switch within the device itself, eliminating the need for a separate installation by an electrician.

Installing and using the GenerLink device is a straightforward process. It involves plugging it into your electrical panel and connecting it to your generator using the extension cord provided with the GenerLink. Once installed, the GenerLink will detect power outages and automatically switch the power source to the generator. When the utility power is restored, the GenerLink will switch back to the utility company as the power source.

Automatic Standby Generators

In 1998, Eastern Ontario was hit with an ice storm that saw some communities without power for weeks. Many residents found themselves without heat, refrigeration, or cooking appliances. Rural areas were particularly affected, and some families found themselves moving into temporary emergency shelters. Having a standby generator will prepare you for such an event with an uninterrupted power supply.
