This Briggs & Stratton
Home
Standby
Generator
complies
with the following
"stationary
standby
power
rating":
The standby power rating is applicable for supplying
power for the duration
of normal power interruption.
NO sustained overload capability is available for this
rating.
This rating is applicable to installations served by a
reliable normal utility source.This
rating is only applicable
to variable loads with an average load factor of 80% of
the standby rating.The
standby rating is only applicable
for optional standby power where the generator
set
serves as the backup to the normal utility source.
Use the "Wattage
Reference Guide" provided and mark
those circuits you consider "critical"
or "essential".
Make
sure you and your installer consider the system's altitude
above sea level and the ambient temperature
range when
determining
total generator
load.
IMPORTANT:
When using the 100 Amp or 200 Amp
transfer switch with the Home Standby Generator, you
must turn off any non essential loads. Failure to turn off
non essential loads could overload the generator
causing it
to shut down. Some examples of non essential loads are as
follows:
• Pool pump
• Hot tub
• Electric hot tub and/or pool heaters
• Central air conditioners
• Electric hot water heaters
• Electric range and/or oven
• Arc welder
• Non essential electric
heaters
