Zusammenfassung:A transfer mechanism and method are provided for transferring the supply of electrical power on a load between a utility source and a stand-by electrical generator wherein load includes an essential load and a secondary load. The transfer mechanism includes a transfer switch that transfers the supply of electrical power to the output between the utility source and the generator. A load shed controller is operatively connected to the output of the transfer switch for monitoring the electrical power supplied to the secondary load. The load shed controller terminates the electrical power supplied to the secondary load in response to the generator being overloaded.
