INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of this Briggs & Stratton
Switching Neutral Manual Transfer Switch. This transfer
switch is designed for use with generators equipped
with or without Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI).
The switch disconnects the appropriate neutral circuit to
allow the GFCI to function properly.
This transfer switch is for use with optional home
standby systems which provide an alternate source of
electric power and to serve loads such as a gas
furnace, refrigeration and communication systems that,
when stopped during any power outage, could cause
discomfort, or the like. This product DOES NOT qualify
for emergency standby as defined by NFPA 70 (NEC).
Briggs and Stratton Power Products (BSPP) has made
every effort to provide for a safe, streamlined and cost-
effective installation. Each installation is unique, it is
impossible to know of and advise of all conceivable
procedures and methods by which installation might
be achieved. We do not know all possible hazards
and/or the results of each method or procedure. For
these reasons,
Only licensed electricians
should install transfer switches.
Installations must strictly comply with all
applicable federal, state and local codes,
standards and regulations.
Your BSPP Transfer Switch is supplied with this
combined “Installation and Operator’s Manual”. This is
an important document and should be retained by the
owner after the installation has been completed.
Every effort has been expended to make sure that the
information in this manual is both accurate and
current. However, the manufacturer reserves the right
to change, alter or otherwise improve the system at
any time without prior notice.
