Not sure I understand how a failed SG caused a transfer station failure.
These protectors only cut power, never change or add power.

But Eureka! I had a though this morning. If the ATS has surge protection and the SG caused a surge or allowed a surge to pass through then the tech is right.
The SG is suppose to prevent smaller pedestal surges from reaching the rig.
I'm using surge as in a high voltage electrical transient and not the other power protection aspects of a SG.
All bets are off if it's lightning related. But if so and the OP only lost the SG and ATS he's one lucky camper.
