RELIANCE

Reliance is a brand historically associated with the Reliance Electric Company, founded in 1904 in Cleveland, Ohio, as a manufacturer of electric motors and controls. Over the decades, the brand expanded into electrical distribution and power management products, and today the Reliance name appears on a range of transfer switches, power inlet boxes, generator cords, and receptacle testers. These products are designed for managing electrical power in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings, particularly for backup power applications. The product families include manual transfer switches, power inlet boxes, generator power cords, and GFCI testers. Manual transfer switches are available in prewired configurations, rated for 125/250V AC and 30 A, single-phase, and often include features such as Pro Tran® 2 switches or outdoor power cords. Power inlet boxes, such as the WKPBN30, provide a weather-resistant connection point with an L14-30 locking configuration and a plastic enclosure. Generator power cords, like the PC3020, are 20 ft long with 10 AWG wire, rated for 125/250V AC at 30 A, and are used to connect portable generators to transfer switches or inlet boxes. GFCI testers, such as the THP102P, are designed for 120 V AC outlets with a 5-15P plug and use a light indicator to verify wiring and GFCI protection. These products are built to standard electrical specifications, with ratings clearly marked for voltage, current, and configuration. The transfer switches and inlet boxes are typically used in backup power systems to safely switch between utility and generator power. 3G Electric supplies the Reliance line as part of its industrial equipment catalog, offering these products to plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists worldwide. The catalog includes detailed specifications for each item, such as amperage, voltage, enclosure material, and included components, to support accurate selection and integration into existing electrical systems. 3G Electric's role is to provide access to these components with clear technical data, enabling buyers to match products to their specific power distribution and backup requirements. The Reliance brand's long history in electrical equipment and its focus on practical, code-compliant solutions make it a relevant option for those needing reliable power transfer and testing devices. 3G Electric does not manufacture these products but distributes them as part of its broader offering of industrial electrical components.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about RELIANCE from 3G Electric.

What is the difference between the Reliance manual transfer switches with model numbers 31410CRK and 31406CRK?

Both the 31410CRK and 31406CRK are prewired manual transfer switches rated for 125/250V AC and 30 A, single-phase. The 31410CRK includes a 10 ft outdoor power cord, while the 31406CRK includes a back-up power/transfer switch. The 31410CRK is designed for connecting a portable generator to selected circuits, whereas the 31406CRK provides a complete back-up power solution. Both are prewired for easier installation. The choice depends on whether you need an integrated cord or a standalone switch. Specifications such as circuit count and enclosure type may vary; consult the individual product data for details.

What are the specifications of the Reliance WKPBN30 power inlet box?

The Reliance WKPBN30 is a power inlet box with a 30 A rating and an L14-30 locking configuration. It features a plastic enclosure and measures 13 1/2 inches in overall height. This inlet box provides a weather-resistant connection point for portable generators, allowing safe and secure plug-in of a generator cord. It is typically mounted outdoors and used in conjunction with a transfer switch and generator cord to supply backup power to a building's electrical system. The L14-30 configuration is a standard 30 A, 125/250V AC locking plug and receptacle, ensuring compatibility with corresponding generator cords and inlets.

Can the Reliance PC3020 generator power cord be used with any transfer switch?

The Reliance PC3020 is a 20 ft power cord with 10 AWG wire, rated for 125/250V AC at 30 A. It is designed to connect a portable generator to a transfer switch or inlet box. It is compatible with Reliance transfer switches and inlet boxes that accept a 30 A, 125/250V AC connection, such as those with L14-30 configurations. However, compatibility depends on the specific generator outlet and the transfer switch or inlet box inlet. Always verify that the plug and receptacle types match and that the amperage and voltage ratings are suitable for your application. The PC3020 is not universal; it is intended for use with matching Reliance or equivalent components.

What does the Reliance THP102P GFCI tester indicate?

The Reliance THP102P is a GFCI tester designed for 120 V AC outlets. It features a 5-15P plug and uses a light indicator to verify correct wiring and GFCI protection. When plugged into an outlet, the tester's lights indicate whether the wiring is correct, if there is an open ground, open neutral, open hot, or reversed polarity, and whether the GFCI device trips when tested. It does not have a display and is not CAT rated. It is suitable for standard residential and commercial receptacles to ensure safety and proper function of GFCI-protected circuits. The tester is a diagnostic tool, not a measurement device.

Are Reliance transfer switches prewired for easy installation?

Many Reliance manual transfer switches are prewired, meaning they come with internal wiring already completed for the switch mechanism and often include a power cord or inlet. For example, the 31410CRK includes a 10 ft outdoor power cord, and the 30216A includes an inlet. Prewired switches reduce installation time and complexity, as the user only needs to connect the switch to the electrical panel and the generator. However, installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. Always check the specific product's included components and wiring diagram before installation.

What is the voltage and amperage rating of Reliance manual transfer switches?

The Reliance manual transfer switches listed, such as the 31410CRK, 31406CRK, 30216A, and the Pro Tran® 2 models, are rated for 125/250V AC and 30 A, single-phase. This rating makes them suitable for typical residential and light commercial backup power applications where a portable generator supplies 120/240V power. The 30 A capacity allows for powering selected circuits such as furnaces, well pumps, refrigerators, and lighting. It is important not to exceed the rated amperage and to match the generator's output to the transfer switch's capacity. For higher amperage requirements, other models may be available.
