What does ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch) mean?
A device that automatically transfers a power supply from its primary source to a backup source when it senses a failure or outage in the primary source.
What should installers verify before using an ATS in a backup design?
Backup design starts by separating loads that must run during an outage from loads that can remain off. Inverter output, battery capacity, transfer equipment, load-starting current, local code, and user expectations all shape the final backup configuration.
Practical design considerations
- Use the term consistently across product pages, technical documents, and support content.
Why this matters for Tigo systems
