    Briggs & Stratton’s PowerProtect 26kW Standby Generator is powered with a commercial-grade Vanguard engine for reliable, clean power and is designed to keep a whole home running no matter what caused an outage.

    Briggs & Stratton’s PowerProtect 26kW Standby Generator is powered with a commercial-grade Vanguard engine for reliable, clean power and is designed to keep a whole home running no matter what caused an outage. Low Idle Mode allows the 26kW unit to be 70 percent quieter and more efficient during the 15-second weekly test cycle. Its tool-less panel makes for easy accessibility, installation and maintenance. Internally, these units have an improved component layout for optimal operation and access. A high-output alternator, Super High Output Vanguard engine, as well as Capacitive Discharge Ignition coils allow this unit to produce the most power available on the market. Convenient hookups for liquid propane and natural gas provide flexibility in determining where and how the generator is installed.
