ATS System

(OP)
what is an ATS system?

RE: ATS System

With all the information you provided? I can only guess!

RE: ATS System

(OP)
I think it has to do with a communication system in a small town I an traveling to.  The public works dept secretary said it would be nice if the engineer was familiar with "ATS systems".  I did not have time to press for more info.

RE: ATS System

"Automatic Transfer Switch"?
 

RE: ATS System

I'm with EEJaime--could be Automatic Throwover Switch (pretty much synonymous with the Transfer).  Basically a device switching from one power source to another (automatically) like a redundant power feed or UPS.  Might want to bring an electrical engineer on the trip :).

 

RE: ATS System

Or transfer from power grid to diesel generator
