Siemens ECSBPK01 Generator Standby Power Mechanical Interlock
<div class="aplus" > <div class="two-third-col"> <p>Siemens standby power mechanical interlock kits provide a means to ensure that the main breaker powered by utility power within a panel is forced to the OFF position when standby power is in use. It also ensures that the standby source is forced to the OFF position when the utility power is in use. This model (ECSBPK01) is designed for use on load centers or meter combinations that will accept 2-pole circuit breakers opposite one another. It's compatible with QP, QPH, and HQPH utility main breaker and standby main breaker types.</p> <p>The most common application for an interlock kits is when a portable generator is used to provide back up power to a building. If the utility main breaker in a panel is left in the -"ON"-position while a generator is powering the panel, dangerous back feeding of the utility power lines can occur. </p> <div class="half-col"> <div class="rightImage" style="width:280px"> <img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/th/aplus/siemens/siemens-ECSBPK01-main-sm.jpg" width="280" height="190" alt="ECSBPK01" /><div class="imageCaption">The ECSBPK01 interlock kit (view larger).</div> </div> </div> <div class="half-col last"> <div class="leftImage" style="width:280px"> <img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/th/aplus/siemens/siemens-ECSBPK01-hand-sm.jpg" width="280" height="190" alt="ECSBPK01 hand" /><div class="imageCaption">Use on Siemens or Murray panels (view larger).</div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="third-col last"> <div class="leftImage" style="width:285px"> <img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/th/aplus/siemens/siemens-logo-sm.gif" width="285" height="106" alt="siemens logo" /> </div> <div class="break"></div> <h4>ECSBPK01 Generator Standby Power Mechanical Interlock</h4> <h5>At a Glance</h5> <ul> <li>UL listed for use in most Siemens load centers and meter combinations</li> <li>Remains attached to the main breakers when load center cover</li> <li>Corrosion resistant finish</li> <li>For use on Siemens or Murray panels</li> <li>Easy assembly requiring no modifications to the load center or meter combination</li> <li>Suitable for use with optional standby systems in accordance with article 702 of the National Electric Code</li> </ul> </div> <div class="break"></div> </div>
