How to connect a power station or home battery to your home

A transfer switch, a power inlet or a home power panel lets a power station or home battery feed chosen circuits of the home through its wiring instead of extension cords. It also keeps those circuits isolated from the utility grid while they run on backup.

With a manual transfer switch you move the chosen circuits by hand when the power goes out; an automatic panel does it on its own. Either way, the work is inside the electrical panel and belongs to a licensed electrician.

Choose with more clarity.

Do I need a transfer switch for a portable power station?

Only if you want the station to power circuits of your home. Plug-in devices connect directly to the station. A transfer switch or power inlet lets it feed chosen circuits while keeping them isolated from the grid.

Can I install a transfer switch myself?

It is work inside the electrical panel. It must be installed by a licensed electrician and may need a permit; ask your local building department.

Does any transfer switch work with any power station or generator?

No. Check the voltage (120 V or 120/240 V), the amperage of the inlet, the connector and the models the manufacturer lists as compatible before you buy.
