Sub panel auto transfer switch

[Norbert77]

Hi guys, I am looking for a 30 or 40a 10 to 12 cct subpanel to use with auto transfer. What's a good brand

From what I read, Square D QO makes the better panels that are readily available. Lifetime warranty on the breakers.

DIY, you can probably get something cheap because you can fix any problems yourself. If you are paying someone, you pay upfront so so don't have to pay them to come back.

Everyone seems to have brand preferences but the more important factor is the bus bar material. I usually pay a little more for solid copper bus bars, usually they are tin plated or silver flashed. Square D or Eaton not as familiar with GE or Siemens product lines.
