Differences Between Powertron Series Tap Box's
Standard Series Hero Banner
Powertron’s Standard Series Tap Box is considered the most basic style tap box and is most commonly used. Standard Series Tap Box’s are typically used for providing temporary power or load banking a permanent generator. Other equipment, such as breaker panels, transfer switches, and other switch gear typically will be used in conjunction with a Powertron Standard Series Tap Box.

Breaker Series Hero Banner
Powertron’s Breaker Series Tap Box is a step above the Standard Series Tap Box. This series are more commonly used when a breaker or switching device isn’t directly connected down stream.

Also, having a breaker inside the tap box may make for a safer process during operation and maintenance.

As most tap box applications require switching power, the Powertron’s MTS Series Tap Box is the ideal choice providing controllability between two power sources. Traditionally, tap box’s and manual transfer switches were separate pieces of equipment which increased installation, B.O.M., and took up a lot of space. With this series tap box you get a 2 for 1 combo. This series is ideal for smaller commercial facilities ranging from 200A to 1200A.
