This Reliance 6-Circuit Transfer Switch Kit delivered everything that it said it would. It was, as they say, STUPID EASY to install. The only thing that I had to add was 15 feet of water proof conduit, two water tight clamps, and 15 feet of 10 AGW in red, black, and white. The General Electric circuit breakers that were in it all had to be replaced except one due to my personal needs. I have a 120 volt water pump so I removed the Double pole 20 amp circuit (Both sides are internally connected which means if one side trips, so does the other). I now have five 20 amp circuits and one 15 amp. I would suggest that even though the wires are marked, tape the matching red and black wires together before you start. Additionally, use a small piece of masking tape and label the circuit breakers, in your panel box, that you are going to connect. Once you take the panel cover off, circuit numbers are on the floor. If you upgrade from 15 amp to 20 amp breakers like I did, make sure that you limit the things that you turn on to the capability of your generator. As you can see in my picture, one of mine is a GFIC circuit breaker. That powers all of my bathroom lights and outlets. I know its over kill but it was installed pre LED lights so... Match what you have and what you want to work when the power goes off. Balance your load Don't worry, the instructions tell you how to do that.Read full review

Switch arrived ahead of schedule. Installation was very easy for anyone familiar with a breaker box and general home wiring. Box appears well designed and very straight forward for use. I am very pleased with this whole purchase. In fact, I bought a second transfer switch and installed it at my daughter's house so I can take my generator to her house should she lose power for an extended period of time. I wish I had this last year when she had a pipe burst due to freezing during a power outage. Six circuits is plenty for an emergency....I selected one circuit for each furnace, one for the refrigerator, one for kitchen/family room lighting, one for the master bedroom lighting, and the last one for lighting in the second bedroom.

This transfer switch is a great answer for me to be able to use my 8KW generator during power outages. Previously have been having to run separate cords from my generator to power a lamp and TV and maybe a fan. Now all i have to do is plug in my generator to the outlet outside my house and all my ceiling fans, ceiling lights in all rooms, my computer and kitchen outlets and microwave will be working with the flip of 6 switches from main to emergency on this panel located in my laundry room.. Easy installation. I just wish it came with a 20 ft power cord instead of 10ft so i could leave the generator in my garage with doors open if it happened to be raining during the power outage, Wish I would have done this a long time ago. I cannot run my A/C with this generator but i can run my gas fireplace if it is winter and I need heat.Read full review

I have bought this item before for my house so I felt it is what I needed for camp. It was easy to install and the way it works it protects the utility works from acident charging the lines as it would be worked on. The value is at least 50% of other listings I found. as long as 6 circuits will do what you need.

Switch had all the parts for easy installation. Great product, instructions simple to read and follow. I am not an electrician. Between Reliance instructions and their You Tube video I took the plunge and did it myself. It has been a week, house still standing and switch is working.

Relatively easy to install and works perfectly. Made a phone call to their technical support to verify how afci circuits work with the system and got a perfect and comprehensive explanation. If you get this, read the manual carefully and plan ahead on the layout of installation to make it smooth and perfect the first time.

Pro level quality and features. This kit has key accessories needed to install and use right out of the box. Plus it is designed for optional installation configurations. Great product if you need to have a backup generator connected to your house electrical box where you decide which circuits will be serviced by your generator.
