Great product

Would Recommend

Easy to install and wire, and I've never messed around in a main panel before. I bought the kit, then got some estimates for installation only from local electricians. The first guy who came out wanted almost $1100; other phone estimates ranged from $800-$1200. The factory installation videos couldn't be more clear or concise. Naturally my situation was not as easy as depicted in the videos; my panel is the flush-mounted type. Even so, I got it done. Very satisfied with this product and re...

Works Flawlessly and Easy Installation

Would Recommend

As is typical, my water pump and furnace are hardwired to the breaker panel. No way to power these appliances with a generator. I started researching transfer switches and a manual transfer switch seemed like the way to go. Automatic whole house generator systems are super expensive. I needed a more cost effective approach. The Reliance 306 is a good fit. With 20/20 hindsight, I could have gone with a 10 circuit unit. Tested operation for the first time yesterday and it took maybe 5 minutes to ...

Excellent product

Would Recommend

This transfer switch could not be made any easier to install. Everything that can be done before putting it in the package has been done, and the instructions for what remains to be done are as clear and concise as any I have ever seen. Anyone capable of changing out a faulty breaker should be able to complete this installation without difficulty.

Excellent, easy install!

Would Recommend

Picked up this transfer switch during a power outage after a surprise tropical storm last weekend (along with a generator). Amazingly easy to install with a little bit of diy electrical experience, I was up and running in 4 hours flat. They have youtube videos online, good instructions, and everything is labeled very well. The one thing I had to go back to lowes for was a 12/4 wire and conduit to connect the panel to the inlet. A good pair of wire strippers was also super helpful, and of cpu...

10 Foot Cord?

Gave it a 3 because it comes with a 10' cord, but the generator I got said you need at least a 20' cord? Returned.

Generator transfer Gateway with 6 circuits 120 V or three circuits 240V - 2 Power Meter handy to balance the load between the two phases of the generator. Easy installation with clear instructions.
