GenerLink™ Transfer Switch – Safe, Simple Generator Connection

When the power goes out, having a portable generator can make all the difference. The GenerLink™ transfer switch provides a safe, convenient way to connect your portable generator directly to your home through your electric meter.

 

​

What Is GenerLink?

GenerLink is an innovative transfer switch that is installed behind your electric meter. Unlike traditional transfer switches that require extensive wiring and installation, GenerLink connects your portable generator directly to your home’s electrical system through the meter socket.

Once installed, you simply plug your generator into the GenerLink unit using the appropriate cord, start your generator, and safely power your home’s existing circuits.

​

Why Is GenerLink Important?

During an outage, safety is critical. Plugging a generator directly into a wall outlet (sometimes called “backfeeding”) is extremely dangerous and can:

• Damage your home’s electrical system

• Violate electrical codes

• Create serious safety hazards for utility lineworkers
   

GenerLink eliminates these risks by:

• Preventing backfeed into utility lines

• Automatically disconnecting your home from the grid while your generator is running

• Safely restoring utility power once service is restored

This built-in protection keeps your family, your home, and our lineworkers safe.
