Generac RTSN600J3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Generac RTSN600J3 transfer switch be mounted outdoors?
Yes. The RTSN600J3 comes in an aluminum NEMA/UL Type 3R enclosure with electrostatically applied, baked powder paint, so it is built for outdoor wall or pad-adjacent mounting in a rain-tight application. The aluminum shell also helps in coastal or humid sites where a painted steel box corrodes faster.
2) What size generator does the Generac RTSN600J3 automatic transfer switch work with?
It is built for three-phase generators of 150 kW and below, on a 120/240 volt three-phase system. If your genset is single-phase, or three-phase at a different system voltage such as 277/480, this is the wrong switch for the job.
3) Can this Generac transfer switch shed air conditioning loads without extra modules?
Yes. Digital Power Management lets the RTSN600J3 manage up to 4 individual HVAC loads (24 VAC controlled) with no additional hardware. Add Smart Management Modules and the total climbs to 8 managed loads, which is how you keep a smaller genset from being oversized for a building with several rooftop or split units.
4) How much wall space and clearance do I need for the RTSN600J3 transfer switch?
Plan the opening around 52 inches high, 25 inches wide and 17 inches deep. At that depth it is a deep-bodied enclosure, so allow working clearance in front per your local electrical code before you set the location.
5) Is the Generac RTSN600J3 a one-man install, or do I need a lift?
It weighs 130 lbs assembled, so it is a two-person set at minimum and most crews use a hand truck or small lift to get it onto the mounting surface. Installation instructions ship with the switch.
6) Is the Generac RTSN600J3 listed for use in Canada?
The switch is cUL listed, and the heavy duty Generac contactor inside it is a cUL recognized device. The listing data also states UL Listed. Nothing else, such as a seismic or emergency-system rating, is carried on this model's published data.
7) What exactly ships in the box with the Generac RTSN600J3, and what do I still have to buy?
You get the transfer switch itself with its mounting hardware and installation instructions. Conductors, conduit, fittings, the mounting substrate and any Smart Management Modules for load shedding beyond the four built-in HVAC circuits are separate. The genset and its controls are also not part of this order.
