ATS "AUTOMATIC TRANSFER SWITCH"
It is an electrical system that controls the automatic powering on and off of the
generator. This device switches from one supply source to another one. The
sources are the mains and the generator. When the mains power is interrupted,
the generator is powered on; and when the mains power is reestablished, the
generator is powered off. It is advisable to have an emergency circuit as a load
with power equal to or greater than that of the generator.
