Clean, quiet, and neighborhood friendly, all residential generator models run on either natural gas or propane.
Why use an residential generator instead of a portable for home standby emergency power? A permanent residential generator set includes many additional features, including a more complex control system, and usually has more power capacity. It also has a weather protective enclosure that is also designed for sound reduction.

Transfer Switch
The RSS Automatic Transfer Switch combines dependability and flexibility in a small, economical package. RSS switches are suitable for standby power systems in residential and light commercial applications. The RSS100 and RSS200 products are built to satisfy the back up power requirements of virtually any residential or light commercial application.
The RSS residential products are Listed to UL 1008, the Standard for Transfer Switch Safety. Cummins Onan residential products adhere to National Electrical Code (NEC) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) requirements.
RSS transfer switches monitor utility power 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. When utility power becomes unsatisfactory or fails; the controller signals the generator to start, then transfers the load. When stable utility voltage returns, the transfer switch will automatically switch electrical load from the generator to the utility. No action is required by the home owner.

• Gold-flashed generator start contacts
Control functions
Voltage sensing: All phases on the normal source and single phase on generator source.Normal Source Pickup: adjustable 90-95%, Dropout: adjustable 70-90% of nominal voltage; Generator Source Pickup: 90%, dropout: 75% of nominal voltage.
Frequency sensing: Generator Source Pickup: 90% of nominal frequency; Dropout: 75% of nominal frequency.
Exerciser clock: Switch is furnished with an integral engine exerciser configurable for operation on a 7, 14, 21, or 28day cycle with a fixed exercise period duration of 20 minutes. A 12-hr exerciser time offset allows for the convenient setting of exercise time without the need to activate the timer. Software selectable capability allows for the exercising of the generator with or without load.
Time-delay functions
Engine start: Prevents nuisance genset starts due to momentary power system variation or loss. Adjustable: 0-10 seconds; default: 3 seconds.Transfer normal to emergency: Allows genset to stabilize before application of load. Prevents power interruption if normal source variation or loss is momentary. Adjustable 0-300 seconds, default 5 seconds.
Retransfer emergency to normal: Allows the utility to stabilize before retransfer of load. Prevents needless power interruption if return of normal source is momentary. Adjustable 0-30 minutes, default 10 minutes.
Genset stop: Maintains availability of the genset for immediate reconnection in the event that the normal source fails shortly after transfer. Allows gradual genset cool down by running unloaded. Adjustable 0-30 minutes, default 10 minutes.
