seconds of power interruption.

Different systems have different tolerances for power interruptions. Critical systems like data centers or hospitals may require near-instantaneous transfer (less than 10 seconds), while less critical systems might allow for longer delays (up to 60 seconds).

2. The type of transfer switch:

Open transition switches can transfer quickly (around 40 milliseconds) but briefly interrupt power. Closed transition or soft-load transfer switches are slower (around 1 second) but avoid power interruption.

3. The specific requirements of the local authority or governing code: Some regions or authorities might have additional requirements for transfer times beyond the NEC.
