Richard Oros patents his new creation; the Load Shed A/C

Richard Oros the creator of the LOAD SHED A/C™ June 2009

Generator Load Shedding: The Load Shed A/C™ allows two or more large air conditioners to operate on a generator sized for only one air conditioner. When the utility fails and the transfer switch flips down to generator power, the Load Shed A/C will shut off one air conditioner while allowing the other to operate until the adjustable timer expires. The Load Shed A/C will then allow the second air conditioner to operate on the adjustable timer. When the second timer expires, the process will start over again with the first air conditioner. Save $thousands$ with the Load Shed A/C by reducing the size generator needed to power your air conditioning during an outage.

	Provided Functions: Automatic load reduction to match the generator supply. Each Load Shed A/C allows for 2 of any size air conditioners to alternate operation with adjustable timers while on a generator automatically. While on utility, both air conditioners operate normally. As many as 9 Load Shed A/C’s may be connected to each generator system, controlling up to 18 air conditioners at once! Installation Information: Richard Oros' Load Shed A/C requires 1 Installation Kit, 1 conduit and 2 low voltage thermostat wires. A control line from the transfer switch to the Load Shed A/C. Thermostat wire – Only 1 wire is needed from each thermostat. That 1 wire from each thermostat is normally closed in utility and opens and closes on two adjustable timers during an outage using the Load Shed A/C on a generator with an automatic transfer switch.

The LOAD SHED A/C PLUS™ has all the same adjustable components as the Load Shed A/C, plus will turn off circuits as large as 100 Amps automatically while on an automatic generator system. Each Load Shed A/C Plus rotates 2 air conditioners on 2 adjustable timers and turns off any size load up to 100 Amps/600V automatically while on an automatic generator. Use up to 9 Load Shed A/C Plus on one generator system.

The Load Shed A/C Smart Delay™ staggers when air conditioning turns on. Whether there are 2 or 8 air conditioners, the Load Shed A/C Smart Delay will stagger each air conditioner five seconds apart, thus lowering the surge of the generator's surge capabilities.
