Why Buy An Automatic Standby System?
An automatic standby generator is a permanently installed, fully automatic emergency generator system that continuously monitors the incoming utility power supply. The system is designed to automatically furnish electrical power to pre-selected circuits in your home that supply your lighting, heating and cooling, appliances and water. Theres no need for extension cords, gasoline cans for refueling, or manual start pull ropes because WINCOs Packaged Standby System supplies back up electric power automatically.
Powered by premium engines, WINCO packaged standby systems are perfect for back up power. Sound attenuated, weather protective enclosures are made using galvanealed steel with a powder paint finish for long life durability. The solid state control system operates the generator automatically when signaled by the automatic transfer switch mounted next to your incoming service panel. Standard features include: cycle crank and overcrank limiting, engine start delay and engine cool down timing, hour meters and battery chargers.

How Does The System Work?
An automatic transfer switch (ATS) monitors your utility power and provides 100% isolation between your generator and the utility power. If the incoming power fails, the ATS will send a start signal to the generator set activating the automatic start system on the generator.
After a short start delay the engine generator will start and begin supplying the ATS with emergency power. At this time, the ATS will transfer your connected distribution panel to the generator powering up your emergency circuits.
Upon return of utility power, the ATS will transfer your connected distribution panel back to line power and discontinue the start signal to the generator. After a short cool down period the generator will stop and return to the standby mode awaiting the next power interruption.
The WINCO Standby generator uses your own natural gas or LP fuel system. This provides you with a long continuous run time and unlimited run time in the case of natural gas.
