HOW THE GUARDIAN® SYSTEM WORKS


Completely automatic emergency home standby generators are available with a state-of-the-art automatic transfer switch. Located inside next to your electrical main, the transfer switch monitors incoming utility voltage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

  1. The completely automatic transfer switch monitors incoming voltage from the utility line - around the clock.
  2. When utility power is interrupted, the automatic transfer switch immediately senses the problem and signals the generator to start.
  3. The automatic transfer switch then safely closes off the utility line and simultaneously opens a new power line from the generator.
  4. Within seconds your home standby system begins supplying electricity to your critical emergency circuits. The transfer switch continues to monitor the utility line conditions.
  5. When the automatic transfer switch senses the utility line voltage has returned at a steady state it re-transfers the electrical load back to the utility line and resumes monitoring for subsequent utility loss. The generator will continue to run for an engine cool down period of several minutes while the entire system stands ready for the next power outage.
