What is a Guardian Generator?

Guardian is the top-selling brand in residential backup power, providing reliable emergency standby electricity for homes and small businesses. These fully automatic systems are the most affordable and easiest generators to install. The Guardian systems restore power within 30 seconds of an outage, whether you're home or away. Sizes range from 6000 to 40,000 watts to meet a wide variety of applications. All models operate on natural gas or LP gas.

How Does It Work?

  • The completely automatic Guardian transfer switch monitors incoming voltage from the utility line around the clock.
  • When utility power is interrupted, the automatic transfer switch immediately senses the problem and signals the generator to start.
  • The automatic transfer switch then safely closes off the utility line and simultaneously opens a new power line from the generator.
  • Within seconds, your Guardian generator system begins supplying electricity to the critical emergency circuits of your home or business. The transfer switch continues to monitor the utility line conditions.
  • 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.

The Automatic Transfer Switch(ATS) monitors incoming untility power 24 hours as day, 365 days a year.
