The X Series features a unique sequential neutral-switching mechanism that will open the two hot legs before opening the neutral leg. It will then close the neutral leg before it closes the two hot legs. This ensures that sensitive 120V electronics and inductive AC motors are not subjected to damaging 240V current resulting from a possible momentary loss of the neutral during switching.

There are over 30 X Series models available to accommodate 8 to 36 branch circuits. All are UL listed and suitable for use under article 702 of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA70. The Panel/Link X Series is available at over 3000 electrical distributor locations throughout the U.S. and Canada. U.S. and foreign patents pending.

Constructed of rugged .060 stainless steel, the Signa 2 Series is available in several models for 15/30A, 125VAC generator output. Options include utility power return indicator light, over-current protection and neutral switching capability. The Signa II Series features the exclusive Reliance 7801 transfer- rated toggle switch which allows switching back to utility power in less than 250 milliseconds, eliminating the necessity of resetting the traffic signals.

Reliance Controls Corporation was awarded the first patent for a traffic signal transfer switch in September of 2000. Today Reliance manufactures over 100 traffic signal transfer switch models in three different outdoor enclosures. Reliance also offers custom transfer switch design, engineering and testing services.

The Reliance testing laboratory is also available to other manufacturers for pre- testing electrical products to UL and ANSI standards. For more information contact Neil Czarnecki at 1-800-634-6155.

When power fails, the automatic transfer switch system detects the loss of utility power, starts the generator, and automatically switches the emergency circuits over to the generator. Now, the generator powers only the circuits in the transfer switch or emergency subpanel. None of the circuits in the load center are powered. The SelecTran allows a double-pole breaker from the emergency subpanel, or transfer switch, to safely back- feed a double-pole breaker in the SelecTran panel making generator power available to all branch circuits. The back-fed breaker in the SelecTran is interlinked with the circuit breaker that feeds the automatic transfer switch so that both circuit breakers cannot be ON at the same time. This prevents the standby system from sensing its own power. A second linkage, to the main circuit breaker, will not allow the back-fed breaker from the standby system to turn ON unless the main breaker is in the OFF position, protecting the utility from being back- fed by the standby system.

Like all Panel/Link generator-ready models, the TTR Series features the heavy-duty Reliance interlock system. All TTR models are UL Listed and include two installed 20A branch circuit breakers, in addition to the main and generator circuit breakers. Reliance Panel/Link generator-ready load centers are available at over 3000 electrical distributor locations in the U.S. and Canada.

Like all TRB models, the line additions feature a protective steel door with latch, and a tamper-resistant interlock. All models are UL Listed for use with most one-inch interchangeable branch circuit breakers.

Panel/Link manual transfer panels are available at over 3000 electrical distributor locations throughout North America.

Simply plug the Circuit SnooperTM transmitter into the live outlet of the circuit you need to identify. This will illuminate the red LED on the transmitter. Use the receiver to scan the circuit breakers in the load center. When the correct circuit breaker is located, the Circuit SnooperTM receiver will “beep” and a green arrow will flash.

The Circuit SnooperTM utilizes patented diagnostic algorithm firmware that is capable of distinguishing between the minute difference of EFI interference and the signal emitted from the transmitter. This algorithm consistently locks-in immediately on the correct circuit breaker.

The Circuit SnooperTM is UL listed and features ergonomic, high-impact construction. The receiver requires a 9V battery, not included.

The PowerOUT! features an ergonomic, high-impact case, built-in rechargeable NiMH battery and a green LED, indicating that there is power to the unit. The green LED can also function as a night light.

Designated as the THP207, the PowerOUT! is part of The Home Protectors® product offering and will be available at retail stores and select electrical wholesalers nationwide.

The PhoneAlertTM is part of the Reliance Controls’ Home ProtectorsTM product line. Additional information, and an instructional video, may be found at www.home-protectors.com.

Included in the new line are several unique products such as the AmWattTM, in-line appliance ammeter/wattmeter; Volt SnooperTM non-contact voltage detector; an early warning sump pump alarm/flood alert; two types of wireless flood/freeze warning systems; a low-cost, seven-function multi-meter and the WireworkerTM, a unique electrical panel tool designed for, among other things, stripping 12 and 10 gauge NM cable.

While the initial offering consists of seven products, many new and unique products are scheduled to be added over the next 10 months. THE HOME PROTECTORS product line will be available at most US and Canadian retailers and select electrical distributors.

The Volt Snooper is listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and includes tri-lingual instructions. It is economically priced and comes individually blister packed in ten-unit self-merchandising display carton.

All Pro/Tran SignaTM Series models are listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and are suitable for use in accordance with article 702 of the National Electrical Code.
