How Does Automatic Mains Failure Work With Generator?
Firstly, the CONECT automatic mains failure panel features a rich set of adjustable parameters for the total protection of the generator and appliances. The internal electronic battery charger is overload protected and all electronic circuits are unaffected by over-voltages. Secondly, the CONECT panel features a 3-way manual changeover that selects BYPASS-OFF-ATS modes of operation. The BYPASS mode directly connects your house to utility power. The internal automatic change-over is disconnected. Thirdly, you can use any style of engine, including gas-fuelled types. Despite the complexity of the panel, it is one of the most user-friendly automatic mains failure panels on the market today.

WHEN TO USE THE AUTOMATIC MAINS FAILURE PANEL?
Use the ATS panel all the time you want to power your house during a power outage. We recommend that you use the CONECT automatic mains failure panel mainly for portable generators. The CONECT automatic mains failure panel is highly recommended when you have a power generator that features its own ATS plug connector.
This connector hosts the main wires, allowing you to start and stop the set. You can find, on the same connector, the cables of the DC battery as well. These kinds of generators have an inside autostart module that takes care of the basic protection of the engine, The CONECT automatic mains failure panel is supplied with 5 meters of cable already fitted with the ATS connector suitable for PRAMAC, HYUNDAI, HONDA, KHOELR, and others. Finally, we supply cable made on special request according to your needs. In conclusion, you can not connect the CONECT automatic mains failure panel, and expect an automatic start, case you have a simple generator with a key start. There is no possibility of driving START and STOP solenoids. You can use it, anyway, as a portable generator by manually starting and stopping the generator.

WHAT DOES AUTOMATIC MAINS FAILURE ACTUALLY MEAN?
The AUTOMATIC MAINS FAILURE, more often called AMF, is an Electric Module that automatically controls a Standby Generator. In other words, an
AUTOMATIC MAINS FAILURE Panel is the proper choice in cases where you have to control a generator that is connected to the Mains in a standby configuration. The automatic mains failure panel fitted with its own controller manages, in a fully automatic way, the connection assignment of the LOAD to the MAINS or GENERATOR. The automatic mains failure controller in this case features all programmable parameters that will allow the AMF panel to detect a Mains Failure and a Mains Restore.
Finally a small clarification about AMF & ATS (AUTOMATIC TRANSFER SWITCH) controllers. In a way, we can say that an ATS controller is similar to an AMF controller. The basic difference is that the AMF controller, once in AUTO mode of operation, provides global control of the engine and generator. ATS controller is more simple: it takes care to concentrate all logic on switching in a safe way the LOAD to MAINS or GENERATOR.
The control panel is more simple because it does not include the monitoring of all parameters of the engine. We can say that an ATS controller is more 'ORIENTED & SPECIFIC TO MANAGE THE LOAD'. But, when using an ATS controller you have to make sure that your generator is well equipped with a reliable Auto Start
