INTRODUCTION
Briggs and Stratton has made every effort to provide for a
safe, streamlined and cost-effective installation. Because
each installation is unique, it is impossible to know of and
advise the trade of all conceivable procedures and methods
by which installation might be achieved. Neither could we
know of possible hazards and/or the results of each
method or procedure. For these reasons,
Only current qualified electrical contractors
should attempt HGS Installations.
Installations must strictly comply with
all applicable codes, industry standards
and regulations.
Your Briggs & Stratton Home Generator System is supplied
with this "Owners Manual" and a separate "Installation
Manual" (part number 190854).These are both important
documents and should be retained by the owner after the
installation has been completed.
WARNING!
Per National Electric Code,
connection of a generator to any electrical circuit
normally powered by an electric utility must be by
means of approved transfer switch equipment so as
to isolate the electrical circuit from the utility
distribution system when the generator is operating.
Failure to isolate the electrical circuits by such
means may result in injury or death to utility power
workers due to backfeed of electrical energy.
The semi-automatic transfer switch is suitable for use in
accordance with Article 702 of the National Electric Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70.This switch is suitable for use on a circuit
capable of delivering not more than 10000A RMS,
symmetrical current, 120/240V, when installed on the load
side of appropriate branch circuit. For indoor use only.The
connection box is a NEMA type 3R, intended for outdoor
use.
