Maximum Reliability & Excellent Value
With a Series 300 Transfer Switch, you get a product backed by
ASCO Power Technologies, the industry leader responsible for virtually
every major technological advance in the Transfer Switch industry.
The ASCO Series 300 was designed for one purpose–to automatically
transfer critical loads in the event of a power outage. Each and every
standard component was designed
by ASCO engineers for this purpose.
The rugged construction and proven performance of the ASCO
Series 300 assure the user of many years of complete reliability.
The Series 300 is even designed to handle the extraordinary
demands placed on the switch when starting or restarting stalled
motors and switching high inrush loads.
ASCO s Series 300 modular, compact design makes it easy to install,
inspect and maintain. All parts are accessible from the front so switch
contacts can be easily inspected.
Features
l
The Series 300 is listed to UL 1008 standard for Transfer Switch
Equipment and CSA standard C22.2 for automatic transfer switches.
l
Meets NFPA 110 for Emergency and Standby Power Systems and
the National Electrical Code (NEC) Articles 700, 701 and 702.
l
30 through 3000 amps in a compact design.
l
Available to 600 VAC, single or three phase.
l
True double-throw operation: The single solenoid design is inherently

Series 300 Power Transfer Switches
Designed to Fit Anywhere
The ASCO Series 300 product line represents the most compact
design of automatic power transfer switches in the industry. With
space in electrical closets being at a premium, the use of wall or
floor-mounted ASCO Power Transfer Switches assures designers
optimum utilization of space.
All transfer switches through 2000 amps are designed to be
completely front accessible. This permits the enclosures to be
installed flush to the wall and still allows installation of all power
cabling and connections from the front of the switch. Cable
entrance plates are also standard on the 1600 and 2000 amp
units to install optional side-mounted pull boxes for additional
cable bending space.
