can a transfer switch be intercepted in the feed to a sub panel without a disconnect not being within sight?

Sep 06, 2007 by wife and the hubby | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

i fancy to intercept a subpanel with a transfer switch for a generator. the sub panel has a main in it for the branch circuits only. the disconnect for the subpanel is not within vision and more than 50 feet away. i do not want to put another disconnect switch in for the normal power of the transfer switch. can i do this?

there is no disconnect spy rule for a sub-panel.that rule is for equipment such as HVAC units,water heater to name just a few.

also a sub-panel does not press for a main breaker

Local code my differ but must be as good as or better than the NEC

Now to answer your question . YES
The bring switch is also a disconnect.
House power.to sub-panel
Generator to sub-panel

The defeat thing is to contact your building code enforcement department.

Get a over switch that detects normal power/emergency power automatically and that's all you need.
If you have a manual over waste transfer switch that will be fine too.
A disconnect box is pointless and is basically just a big on/off switch. It would just cut power off from everything.

Illustration:
[ Power from Byway someone's cup of tea ] --->[existing disconnect] ---> [transfer switch] --> [ generator ] ---> [Panel / subpanel]

The above exemplar if for a whole house example.

This second illustration is for applying to a subpanel with limited about of breakers which sounds like your structure:
[Main Panel] ---> [Transfer Switch] --->[Generator] ---> [subpanel]

Stark, I'd like to help you but your question is too confusing.

The way I read it is, the sub panel main disconnect is near or at the care entrance, which is 50 feet away. That's fine.
You want to put in a transfer switch so you can transfer the power from the marines to a generator to feed the panel. Nothing wrong with that, so long as you put the transfer switch between the panel disconnect and the panel. Distance does not insert the picture.

I hope that helps.

I can't genuinely determine what your question is. What is intercepted? Why would you need a disconnect within sight of the transfer switch? That is a motor circuit rule in the USA. Where are you located? I entertain the idea you should contact an electrician to come and help you.

Oct 07, 2006 by Chuck B | Posted in Other - Cars & Transportation

recently purchased a '06 Mazda 3i. Will be storing it for 6 months in a uncommunicative garage and want to disconnect the battery during that time. Understand there exists a device that installs on the battery and disconnects/connects the battery by a time of a switch. Am trying to locate supplier and would appreciate any info, costs, expiences, etc.

You can win them at NAPA stores, as well as most discount parts stores. You might also try here------>

How do I disconnect the cargo switch on my 1995 GMC 1500 dash?

Feb 07, 2814 by OverTorque | Posted in GMC

I have occasion for to replace my radio so I'm trying to remove the dash first. I can't figure out how to disconnect the cargo switch harnes so that I can eliminate the dash.

Use a in effect small regular screwdriver to manuver the latch on the plug, it's kinda tough. If it has the Negro plastic tab on the top, use your finger and push it down and pull the connector out. It will be tough and you are probably gonna crack a knuckle.
