Why Using a Transfer Switch Matters for Safety

One of the biggest dangers when using a portable generator is backfeeding, which occurs when electricity flows back into utility lines. This can seriously injure utility workers and damage your home’s electrical system.

Running extension cords through doors and windows to power essentials isn’t safe either. Approved transfer switches are specifically designed to prevent backfeeding and keep your home compliant with electrical safety standards. The EZ Generator Switch is code-compliant in the U.S. and Canada, ensuring you receive the highest-quality manual transfer switch.
