A back-to-back switching circuit is an electrical system that allows for the seamless transfer of power between two sources. Known for their reliability and efficiency, these circuits are often used in industrial, commercial, and residential settings. However, there are a number of synonyms for back-to-back switching circuits, including transfer switches, transfer controllers, and automatic transfer switches. Other terms used to describe these circuits include emergency power systems, generator switches, and power management systems. Regardless of the terminology used, the function of these systems remains the same: to provide a backup power supply in the event of an outage or other interruption in the main electrical supply.
