Generator

Project Information

Thorne Electric Company successfully completed the installation of a generator transfer switch at a commercial facility, ensuring uninterrupted power supply during outages or maintenance. This project involved integrating a state-of-the-art automatic transfer switch (ATS) with the facility’s existing electrical system, providing seamless transition to backup generator power in the event of a power failure. The switch was installed to handle high loads and operate efficiently under heavy demand, offering reliable protection and continuous operations for the business.

In addition to the switch installation, Thorne Electric handled all preparatory work, including system evaluations, electrical rewiring, and configuring generator integration. The system underwent rigorous testing to guarantee peak performance and reliable activation under various scenarios. Our team also provided comprehensive training to the client on the operation and maintenance of the transfer switch, ensuring long-term functionality.

Overview & Challenge​

This generator transfer switch installation presented unique challenges that required innovative solutions. One of the primary challenges was ensuring compatibility between the new transfer switch and the client’s aging electrical infrastructure. Due to the complexity of the existing wiring and outdated equipment, Thorne Electric had to reconfigure certain elements of the electrical system to ensure smooth integration without compromising the facility’s overall power distribution.

Another challenge was the physical limitations of the site. The facility had limited space for installing the generator and transfer switch in close proximity to one another, which required creative placement and rerouting of conduit to comply with safety and performance standards. Thorne Electric worked closely with the client to find the best location for the equipment, minimizing disruption to the facility’s operations and maximizing the efficiency of the system. 

Additionally, the project required compliance with specific local regulations that governed emergency power installations. Our team had to work within strict regulatory guidelines, coordinating with inspectors to ensure that every aspect of the installation met the necessary safety and operational standards.

Despite these challenges, Thorne Electric successfully completed the project on time and within budget, delivering a reliable backup power solution that will protect the client’s business operations during future power outages.
