High-Reliability Transfer Switches & DIN-Rail Automation Modules
Factory-direct low-voltage transfer switches, programmable timing controllers, and multi-function relays designed for seamless integration into Turkish industrial and building distribution boards.
Automatic Transfer Switch Architecture: Serving Industrial & Municipal Grids in Ankara
In electrical distribution systems across Ankara Province—from high-density industrial clusters like OSTİM and İvedik Organized Industrial Zones (OSB) to critical healthcare infrastructure such as Bilkent Integrated Health Campus—the demand for continuous power continuity has surged. Operating under the regional concession of Başkent Elektrik Dağıtım A.Ş. (Başkent EDAŞ), local distribution networks frequently encounter severe grid transients, load shedding surges, and voltage fluctuations during peak heating and industrial production seasons.
An Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) serves as the frontline autonomous switching nexus between the primary public utility supply (Main Grid / Şebeke) and secondary backup power assets (diesel generator sets, uninterruptible power supplies, or distributed solar PV with energy storage systems). Unlike manual transfer selector switches, modern solid-state and solenoid-driven ATS units monitor phase voltages, frequency tolerances, and phase-angle synchronism in real-time. Upon detection of undervoltage (<180V), overvoltage (>260V), phase asymmetry, or outright grid failure, the switch disengages the primary line, provides appropriate engine-start signaling via dry contacts, and commutates the load to the secondary source within milliseconds.
Zhejiang TMB Electric Co., Ltd. manufactures low-voltage ATS equipment compliant with IEC/EN 60947-6-1 (Transfer Switching Equipment - TSE) and harmonized Turkish Standards (TS EN 60947-6-1). Engineered inside Liushi, Wenzhou—the epicenter of precision electrical hardware—our product line encompasses PC-Class (high short-circuit withstand without integral overcurrent release) and CB-Class (incorporating molded case or miniature circuit breaker thermal-magnetic trip units) ATS units tailored for the rigorous electrical codes demanded by Turkish electrical engineers and panel builders.

Localized Deployment Scenarios in Ankara's Strategic Hubs
How our automatic transfer switches and intelligent timing automation modules resolve power continuity challenges across Central Anatolia's primary economic zones.
OSTİM & İvedik OSB Precision Manufacturing
Ankara's industrial core houses thousands of high-precision CNC milling units, automated sheet metal stamping lines, and laser cutting cells. A momentary voltage drop or grid dropout instantly fractures cutting tools and ruins expensive defense-grade titanium or aeronautical aluminum billets.
Our TOQ3 4P 100A/125A transfer switches integrate directly onto sub-distribution DIN-rails, linking main workshop incomers to secondary auxiliary generator feeds. With an ultra-rapid mechanical throw of under 45 milliseconds, auxiliary CNC control electronics remain energized, eliminating catastrophic multi-axis machine positional drift.
Bilkent & Etlik Integrated Health Campuses
Ankara's flagship mega-hospitals demand uncompromising tier-level redundancy. While primary surgical theaters are isolated by online double-conversion UPS clusters, auxiliary life-support ventilation, cryogenic drug refrigeration, pathology incubators, and surgical sterilization autoclaves rely on downstream ATS commutation.
By pairing TMB 4-Pole ATS hardware with our TORT7 multi-function delay timing relays, electrical contractors configure staggered motor-start timing sequences (0.1s to 10 days adjustable). This prevents generator stalling caused by massive simultaneous inductive inrush currents when large hospital chillers and air handling units switch to secondary power.
Sincan & Kahramankazan Defense Contractors
Home to Turkey's aerospace and defense manufacturing belt (TAI/TUSAŞ, ASELSAN, ROKETSAN subcontractors), Kahramankazan and Sincan facilities operate cleanrooms, environmental testing chambers, and avionics assembly suites that cannot tolerate floating neutral instability or electrical arc discharge.
Our CE-certified PC-class high-withstand transfer switches feature silver-tungsten alloy contacts, high dielectric isolation barriers between poles, and robust mechanical interlocks that physically prevent overlapping contact during transfer, protecting sensitive avionics test benches against catastrophic reverse phase injection.
Commercial High-Rise Towers in Çankaya & Çukurambar
Modern luxury commercial towers along Eskişehir and Konya Roads feature extensive building management systems (BMS), high-speed passenger elevators, and emergency smoke extraction fans. When the primary feeder experiences brownout conditions, fire and smoke life-safety circuits must transfer immediately.
Our TOQ3 ATS units feature front-facing night-visible mechanical indicator dials and internal microswitch auxiliary contacts. These dry contacts feed instant binary position signals back into the central building SCADA system, alerting facility engineers the millisecond the building transfers to diesel backup.
Polatlı & Central Anatolia Solar Irrigation Microgrids
In rural agricultural belts surrounding Ankara, such as Polatlı and Haymana, deep-well water pumps are powered by hybrid solar PV arrays backed by rural utility connections or diesel generators. Water delivery must occur during optimal evapotranspiration cycles to conserve ground water and power tariffs.
Contractors utilize our HT-9WAY Weatherproof Box equipped with a 2P 63A ATS paired with the TOMZN New Type 7-Day Programmable Digital Timer. The system automatically commutates deep-well pumps to off-peak grid tariffs or direct solar PV output, protecting submersible pump motors from dry run and low-voltage winding burnout.
Edge Telecommunications & Data Hubs in Teknokent Zones
At ODTÜ Teknokent and Hacettepe Beytepe IT innovation corridors, high-density server racks and optical fiber switching nodes require dual AC distribution. Incorporating our TOS7-B Bluetooth Smart Switches alongside TOB9e WiFi Smart Breakers grants remote telecom network managers automated loop timing, real-time kWh consumption logging, and remote circuit disconnection from any smartphone terminal.
Macro Trends Reshaping ATS Demand Across the Ankara Market (2025–2030)
The Turkish electrical market is experiencing an unprecedented structural transformation driven by strict energy regulatory mandates, aggressive solar PV integration, and industrial digital transformation. Panel builders and electrical wholesalers serving Ankara must navigate three dominant industry shifts:
1. EPDK Grid Quality & Uptime Directives
Turkey's Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EPDK) has instituted stringent penalty schemes for industrial distribution licensees over unscheduled system interruptions. As a result, industrial plants in Ankara are mandated to implement autonomous onsite backup systems. Dual power ATS units that deliver validated transfer switching under 50ms are experiencing rapid procurement growth as manufacturers seek to insulate production lines from financial downtime penalties.
2. C&I Solar PV + Battery Storage Proliferation
Under Turkey's unlicensed solar electricity generation regulations (Lisanssız Elektrik Üretimi - Regulation 5.1.h), factory rooftops across Sincan, Başkent OSB, and Akyurt are deploying self-consumption photovoltaic arrays. Transferring between grid export mode, battery storage microgrid mode, and diesel emergency power requires intelligent ATS devices equipped with mechanical and electrical interlocking to prevent catastrophic out-of-phase islanding back into utility lines.
3. Modernization to DIN-Rail Compact Modular ATS
Traditional bulky rotary ATS switches require custom sheet-metal enclosures and complex external PLC wiring harnesses. The Ankara switchboard assembly market is rapidly converting to 35mm DIN-rail mountable, MCB-profile dual power switches (such as the TOQ3 series). These compact units occupy minimal modular width inside standard distribution boards, drastically reducing assembly labor, copper busbar consumption, and enclosure fabrication costs.
