Standby Generators

A standby generator is installed permanently outside your home or business and starts by itself within seconds of a power cut, through an automatic transfer switch. Running on natural gas, propane or diesel, it can power the whole house rather than a few extension cords.We carry Generac whole house and commercial standby generators: the 24 kW kit with 200 amp transfer switch, Protector RG025 and RG030, liquid-cooled XG 32 kW and 45 kW models (single and three phase, including CARB versions), the 80 kW Protector and RD diesel standby units.Read our home standby generator buying guide to size a generator, and pair it with an automatic transfer switch. Installation must be done by a licensed electrician. Every order ships within the United States for a $70 flat rate and comes with 30-day returns.
