A new more efficient alternator on the 40646 Briggs and Stratton 12kW Standby Generator delivers exceptional voltage control and more power for starting motors including a central air conditioner. Tighter voltage control for less than 5% total harmonic distortion (THD) means cleaner power for sensitive electronics and heavy-duty motors.
The 100-Amp 16-Circuit Automatic Transfer Switch distributes power from the Briggs and Stratton 12kW Home Generator to selected appliances automatically.

The dryer might wait until you finish cooking dinner, for example.
