Standby Generator Set
Briggs & Stratton^® Home Standby
10kW on propane, 9kW on natural gas
(see below for transfer switches)

 

Don’t let its size fool you! Thanks to a compact design and a commercial-grade Vanguard™ engine, our 10kw standby generator proves big power can come in a small generator. In a small to medium-sized home, the new 10kw standby generator affordably manages the power to all of your appliances with our Load Control Center.

Designed to fit any property, its flexible placement options and compact size make backup power a reality for many homeowners.

Symphony II^® System now available for managing your large electrical loads and this usually means you can install a smaller lower- cost generator.  The system is available as an option in the most of the Briggs automatic transfer switches.  The user selects up to four large loads to be controlled and sets the run priority for each.  Then this system monitors the available generator capacity to determine if and when these loads can run.  They are turned on and off automatically through remote switching modules which must be ordered separately (see below).  The system communicates with the modules using a signal on the power system neutral.

OVERVIEW

More Power in a Smaller Generator
The compact 10kW standby generator has one of the highest power outputs per square inch of footprint in its kW class - providing backup electricity to more of your household appliances.

Flexible Placement
Tested against the tough National Fire Protection Agency 37 standard, Briggs & Stratton 10kw standby generators can be placed as close as 18” from the home providing more placement options in your yard3 – perfect for tight lot lines.

Reliable Engine Power
Our 10kW standby generators are powered by commercial-grade Vanguard™ engines that are design-engineered to dependably take on the most demanding jobs. 

More Access to Air Conditioners
Briggs & Stratton automatic transfer switches can manage the load of up to two 3-ton air conditioners while powering other household appliances.

Quick Response
