Subtech ATS Panel - Automatic Transfer Switch
Overview

What is an ATS Panel?

An ATS panel monitors your primary power source continuously. The moment it detects voltage deviation, phase loss, or frequency drift, it transfers your entire load to the secondary source with full mechanical and electrical interlocks that make it physically impossible for both sources to energise simultaneously.

ATS and AMF are not the same product. An AMF starts and stops a generator. An ATS assumes both sources are independently live and decides which one feeds the load. For facilities with two utility feeders or a permanently running backup generator, ATS is the correct specification.

DMRC mandates automatic transfer switches with dual power supplies across all station infrastructure. Subtech panels meet IEC 61439 type-tested requirements and IP54 enclosure standards specified in DMRC electrical panel documentation.

Key Benefits

Why this matters for your facility

Transfer in Under 2 Seconds

Motorised changeover completes in 1 to 2 seconds. Static thyristor versions transfer in 20 milliseconds. No gap your UPS cannot hold.

Mechanically Impossible to Parallel Sources

Physical interlocks prevent both sources from energising the busbar simultaneously. Not a software lock. A mechanical one.

Monitors Both Sources Before Transferring

Checks under-voltage, over-voltage, phase loss, phase sequence, and frequency on both sources. The panel does not transfer to a bad source.

Transfer Logic Built for Your Site

Transfer delay, retransfer delay, inhibit timers, and load-shed logic are all programmable. Your site conditions, not a fixed factory default.

Bypass Isolation for Live Maintenance

Optional bypass section allows ATS removal for maintenance without interrupting the load. No maintenance window needed.

BMS and SCADA Ready

Modbus, BACnet, and Ethernet-IP standard. Live status, alarm logs, and remote test over your building management system.

Who Uses This

Where Subtech panels are deployed

Data Centres

Dual utility feed ATS panels sit upstream of UPS and DG layers. Our panels transfer fast enough that UPS systems never switch to battery.

Hospitals with Class A Supply

Two independent DISCOM feeders. ATS keeps theatres and ICUs on utility power throughout. DG only invoked when both feeders fail.

Telecom MSC and NOC Sites

N+1 power redundancy between two utility feeders. A switching centre that goes dark takes hours to recover.

Water Treatment Plants

UP Jal Nigam, Delhi Jal Board, and MIDC pumping stations. Water supply to thousands of homes depends on these panels switching correctly every time.

Commercial Towers and IT Parks

Twin DISCOM feeders. Tenants stay powered during single-feeder maintenance. No SLA breaches. No complaints.

Metro Stations and Airports

DMRC specifies automatic transfer switches across all station building services. Subtech panels meet DMRC IEC 61439 and IP54 enclosure requirements.

Configurations

ATS Panel Configurations

Four topologies. Pick what fits your transfer speed, maintenance requirement, and budget.

Motorised Changeover ATS

63A to 3200A

Two MCCBs or ACBs with motorised mechanism and mechanical interlock. Transfer in 1 to 2 seconds. Most specified configuration. Cost-effective and field-proven.

Electrically Operated Contactor ATS

63A to 800A

Two contactors with electrical and mechanical interlocks. Transfer under 500 milliseconds. For smaller loads where motorised ACBs are over-specified.

Get quote

Bypass Isolated ATS

200A to 2500A

Parallel bypass section for live ATS removal during maintenance without load interruption. Standard for data centres and hospitals.

Get quote

Static Solid State Transfer Switch

100A to 1600A

Thyristor switching in 20 milliseconds. One power cycle. Required upstream of large UPS plants and sensitive medical or laboratory loads.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an ATS and an AMF panel?
An ATS only switches the load between two sources that are already running. An AMF additionally starts and stops the diesel generator.
What is the typical transfer time of an ATS panel?
Motorised ATS transfers in 1-2 seconds. Electrically-operated contactor ATS transfers in under 500 milliseconds. Static (solid-state) ATS transfers in under one cycle (typically 8-16 milliseconds).
Can the ATS panel parallel two sources?
No, a standard ATS panel has mechanical and electrical interlocks specifically to prevent paralleling.
Do you supply ATS panels for solar / inverter switching?
Yes, we build ATS panels specifically for grid-to-inverter and grid-to-solar-hybrid switching.
What enclosure ratings are available?
Standard is IP 42 for indoor installation. IP 54 (semi-outdoor) and IP 65 (full outdoor) are available.
What is the lead time for an ATS panel?
Standard ratings (63A-800A): 7-10 working days. Above 800A or bypass-isolated: 15-21 days.
