Briggs & Stratton has been providing reliable engine power for more than 100 years. Trust the proven power experts at Briggs & Stratton for complete peace of mind.

Symphony II® System now available for managing your large electrical loads and this usually means you can install a smaller lower- cost generator.  The system is available as an option in the most of the Briggs automatic transfer switches.  The user selects up to four large loads to be controlled and sets the run priority for each.  Then this system monitors the available generator capacity to determine if and when these loads can run.  They are turned on and off automatically through remote switching modules which must be ordered separately (see below).  The system communicates with the modules using a signal on the power system neutral.
