2. Generator interlock kit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_Interlock_Kit

   With kits installed on the electrical panel's cover, removing the cover could allow the generator backfeed breaker to be turned on while the main is on, [4] potentially energizing power lines or overloading the generator, if the generator is connected. In some applications, installing an interlock kit requires drilling holes in the panel cover ...

3. Camlock (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camlock_(electrical)

   Another version is the Posi-Lok, which features keyed, shrouded connectors, and panels with sequencing interlocks. [3] Camlock is generally used where temporary connections of 3-phase and/or more than 50 A are needed. Applications include connecting large temporary generators or load banks to distribution panels or building disconnects. Common ...

4. Interlock (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlock_(engineering)

   Electrical interlock on wire mesh. An interlock device is designed to allow a generator to provide backup power in such a way that it (a) prevents main and generator power to be connected at the same time, and (b) allows circuit breakers to operate normally without interference in the event of an overload condition. Most interlock devices for ...

5. Numerical relay - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_relay

   Digital/numerical relays provide a front panel display, or display on a terminal through a communication interface. This is used to display relay settings and real-time current/voltage values, etc. More complex digital relays will have metering and communication protocol ports, allowing the relay to become an element in a SCADA system.

6. Rating plate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rating_plate

   The plate frequently contains the names of the machine and its manufacturer, so the rating plate is often called a name plate (hence the term "nameplate capacity" for a generator), although many devices carry separate nameplates and rating plates. [1] For an electric machine, the power rating is the number on its rating plate and corresponds to ...

7. Transfer switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_switch

   When utility power returns for a minimum time, the transfer switch will transfer the house back to utility power and command the generator to turn off, after another specified amount of "cool down" time with no load on the generator. A transfer switch can be set up to provide power only to critical circuits or to entire electrical (sub)panels.
