Keep your home prepared for unexpected utility outages with the Briggs & Stratton 200 Amp Standard SED Automatic Transfer Switch. Designed for compatible Briggs & Stratton standby-generator systems, the transfer switch automatically detects a loss of utility power and signals the generator to start.
Once generator power is available, the transfer switch manages the transition from utility power to backup power. When normal utility service returns, it automatically transfers the connected loads back to utility power, providing a seamless transition without requiring manual switching.
With its 200-amp capacity, 120/240V single-phase configuration, NEMA 3R enclosure, UL 1008 listing, and Symphony® Choice Power Management compatibility, this transfer switch is designed for dependable residential standby-power applications.

How the 200 Amp Automatic Transfer Switch Works
During normal operation, your home's electrical system receives power from the utility.
When utility power is interrupted, the Briggs & Stratton 200 Amp Automatic Transfer Switch detects the outage and signals the compatible standby generator to start.
Once the generator is ready to supply electricity, the transfer switch transitions the appropriate electrical loads to generator power.
When utility service returns, the transfer switch automatically moves those loads back to utility power.
This automatic operation allows a properly configured standby-generator system to respond to an outage even when no one is home.

Why Choose a 200 Amp Automatic Transfer Switch?
Many residential electrical services use a 200-amp main service, making a properly selected 200-amp transfer switch an important component when designing certain whole-home standby-generator systems.
The transfer switch works together with the standby generator to automate the backup-power process. Rather than requiring someone to manually connect or switch power sources during an outage, the system can detect the loss of utility service and initiate generator operation automatically.
The correct transfer-switch size and configuration should always be determined according to the home's electrical service, generator capacity, connected loads, and installation requirements.
Symphony Choice Power Management
This 200 Amp transfer switch is compatible with Briggs & Stratton Symphony Choice Power Management.
Power management can help coordinate electrical loads based on available generator capacity. This is especially useful when a home's potential electrical demand exceeds what the standby generator should supply simultaneously.
Depending on the system configuration, power management can help prioritize important household equipment while controlling when larger electrical loads operate.
Built for Residential Standby Power
With its 200-amp rating and 120/240V single-phase configuration, this transfer switch is designed for compatible residential standby-power installations.
The NEMA 3R enclosure provides weather-resistant protection for installations requiring this enclosure classification, while the UL 1008 listing provides an established standard for transfer-switch equipment.
Complete Your Briggs & Stratton Standby Generator System
A dependable standby-power system requires more than the generator itself. The automatic transfer switch provides the connection and control needed to move electrical loads between utility and generator power.
The Briggs & Stratton 200 Amp Standard SED Automatic Transfer Switch combines automatic outage detection, 200-amp capacity, 120/240V single-phase operation, NEMA 3R construction, UL 1008 listing, and Symphony Choice compatibility for compatible residential standby-generator installations.
