GE’s new GenTower generator connection switchboard allows facility managers to get the power going again and their operations back up and running. GenTower saves labor and downtime costs because the stand-alone, permanent solution connects to a mobile generator via color-coded quick connects, which feeds the main power system without emergency modifications.
Rated up to 4,000 A at 65k AIC, GenTower connects either by cabling to the lugs on the main switchboard (if tap connections are in place), with hard bus connection to approved GE switchboards, or through a feeder breaker. The unit is also available as a selection in a new Spectra Series line-up and the stand-alone version’s NEMA 3R enclosure installs in any location accessible to a mobile generator.
Since the GenTower can cable into any switchboard, and even products of other manufacturers, it offers complete flexibility as an add-on to any installed base.
Along with delivering assurance, flexibility and cost savings, GenTower offers:
- Connection via color-coded, cam-lock quick connects and traditional lugs;
- Cable support to help maintain proper connection of cables to quick connects;
- Clear display of operation sequence on front cover;
- Key interlocks with the main breaker on typical switchboard line-ups;
- UL 891, Switchboards and meets Florida Building Code Section 420.4.2.9.7.
