Installation Factors to Consider

The illustrations shown in this manual are for typical

circumstances. They are meant to familiarize you with the

installation options available for the generator.

Federal and local codes, appearance, noise levels, fuel

types, and distances are installation factors that must be

considered. Remember that, as the distance increases

from the existing electrical service and gaseous fuel supply,

and the number of bends in the fuel supply increases,

compensations must be made for piping and wiring

materials. This is necessary to comply with local codes

and overcome electrical voltage drops and gaseous fuel

pressure drops.

The factors mentioned above will have a direct effect on the

overall price of the generator installation.

Delivery Inspection

Avoid damage from dropping, bumping, or collision with

the shipping carton. Carefully inspect the generator for any

damage that may have occurred during shipment.

If loss or damage is found at time of delivery, have the

person(s) making delivery note the loss or damage on the

freight bill and affix his signature under the consignor’s

memo of loss or damage. If the loss or damage is noted after

delivery, separate the damaged materials and contact the

carrier for claim procedures. Missing or damaged parts are

not warranted.

Installation

Before deciding on the final placement of the generator, the owner and installer must discuss and understand several

location guidelines. There are two critical safety concerns to be addressed - carbon monoxide poisoning and the risk of fire,

as follows:

WARNING Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an

odorless, colorless, poison gas.

Breathing carbon monoxide could result in death,

serious injury, headache, fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confusion,

seizures, nausea or fainting.

• Operate this product ONLY outdoors in an area that will not

accumulate deadly exhaust gas.

• Keep exhaust gas away from any windows, doors, ventilation

intakes, soffit vents, crawl spaces, open garage doors or other

openings that can allow exhaust gas to enter inside or be

drawn into a potentially occupied building or structure.

• Carbon monoxide detector(s) MUST be installed and

maintained indoors according to the manufacturer’s instructions

and recommendations. Smoke alarms cannot detect carbon

monoxide gas.

WARNING

Exhaust heat or gases could ignite

combustibles or structures resulting in death or

serious injury.

• Exhaust outlet end of standby enclosure must be at

least 5 ft (1.5 m) from any structure, shrubs, trees or

any kind of vegetation.

• Standby enclosure must be at least 5 ft (1.5 m) from

windows, doors, any wall opening, shrubs, or

vegetation over 12 inches (30.5 cm) in height.

• Standby enclosure must have at least 5 feet (1.5 m)

overhead clearance from any structure, overhang, or trees.

• DO NOT place standby enclosure under a deck or

other type of structure that may confine airflow.

• Smoke detectors MUST be installed and maintained

indoors according to the manufacturer’s instructions

and recommendations. Carbon monoxide alarms

cannot detect smoke.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING

Follow the installation requirements listed below. The figure below illustrates potential points of entry for carbon monoxide

gas.

Ensure that generator exhaust gas is kept away from:

• Overhead doors (B, shown above)

10 BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM

All fossil fuel burning products, such as standby

generators, emit carbon monoxide (CO) gas in the

engine exhaust. CO gas is odorless, colorless and

tasteless and is unlikely to be noticed until a person is

overcome. CO gas can kill you. It is required that the

following be included as part of the installation:

• Install the generator outdoors in an area that

will not accumulate deadly exhaust gas.

• DO NOT install the generator where exhaust

gas could accumulate and enter inside or be

drawn into a potentially occupied building or

structure.

• Nearby structures may be exposed to the engine

exhaust from the unit and must be considered

when installing the standby generator.

• Wind and air currents should be taken into

consideration when positioning the generator.

Place the generator in an area where winds will

carry the exhaust gas away from any potentially

occupied building or structure.

• DO NOT place the standby generator in any area

where leaves or debris normally accumulate.

• By law, many states require a fully operating

Carbon Monoxide (CO) detector in homes

and other structures occupied by people.

Carbon monoxide detectors MUST be

installed and maintained indoors according

to the manufacturer’s instructions and

recommendations. A carbon monoxide detector

is an electronic device that detects hazardous

levels of CO. When there is a buildup of CO,

the monitor will alert the occupants by flashing

a visual indicator light and sounding an alarm.

Smoke alarms cannot detect CO gas.

• Direct the standby generator exhaust (A, shown

below) away from or parallel to the building or

structure. DO NOT direct the generator exhaust

towards a potentially occupied building, structure,

windows, doors, ventilation intakes, soffit vents,

crawl spaces, open garage doors, or other openings

where exhaust gas could accumulate and enter

inside or be drawn into a potentially occupied

building or structure.

high areas.

• The slightest spark could ignite these fuels and cause

an explosion.

• DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.

• A minimum of one accessible, approved manual

shutoff valve (F) shall be installed in the fuel supply

line within 6 ft (180 cm) of the generator.

• Where local conditions include earthquake,

tornado, unstable ground, or flood hazards, special

consideration shall be given to increase strength and

flexibility of piping supports and connections.

• Piping must be of the correct size to maintain the

required supply pressures and volume flow under

varying generator load conditions with all gas

appliances connected to the fuel system turned on

and operating.

• Use a pipe sealant or joint compound approved for

use with NG/LP on all threaded fittings to reduce the

possibility of leakage.

• Installed piping must be properly purged and

leak tested, in accordance with applicable codes

and standards.

The owner and installer should consult one another to review

any changes to the installation plan that might arise when

applying the following guidelines for fuel plumbing.

• The piping material must conform to federal and local

codes, be rigidly mounted, and be protected against

vibration.

• Piping should be protected from physical damage

where it passes through flower beds, shrub beds, and

other cultivated areas where damage could occur.

• Install a flexible hose (B, at right) between the

generator fuel inlet port (A) and the rigid piping to

prevent thermal expansion and contraction from

causing excessive stress on the piping material.

NOTICE

The flexible fuel pipe is not to be installed

underground or in contact with the ground. The entire flexible

pipe must be visible for periodic inspection.

• A union (C) or flanged connection shall be provided

downstream to permit removal of controls.

• A manometer test port (D) should be installed for

vapor fuels. The port permits temporary installation

of a manometer to check whether the engine is

receiving the correct fuel pressure to operate efficiently

throughout its operating range. A digital manometer

(P/N 19495) is available at your service center for

vapor fuels only. For liquid propane any pressure

measurement instrument rated for liquid propane and

350 psi can be used. When the initial test runs are

completed, the manometer is removed and the port is

plugged.

• For vapor fuels only: Where the formation of hydrates

or ice is known to occur, piping should be protected

against freezing. The termination of hard piping should

include a sediment trap (E) where condensate is not

likely to freeze.

Fuel Pipe Sizing

NFPA 54 and 58 are common resources. The installer

should consider the specific gravity of gas, compensate for

a nominal amount of restriction from bends and fittings, and

refer to federal and local codes for guidance.

Fuel Conversion

The engine was set at the factory to run on natural gas (NG).

To convert the engine to run on liquid propane (LP Vapor), or

to change back to NG later, follow these steps:

1. Open the controller door.

2. Locate fuel selector switch on side of circuit breaker

enclosure.

3. Move the switch (A, below) to LP or NG.

4. Close the controller door.

WARNING

Fuel is extremely flammable and explosive,

which could cause burns, fire or explosion resulting in death

or serious injury.

• The generator is equipped with automatic safety gas

“fuel shut-off” valves.

• DO NOT operate the equipment if the “fuel shut-off”

valves are missing or inoperative.

Type of Fuel to Use

An important consideration affecting the entire

installation is the type of fuel to be supplied. For

proper engine function, use clean, dry fuel, free of

moisture or any particulate material. Using fuels

outside the recommended values may cause

performance problems.

Fuel Pressure

Fuel supply pressure at the generator fuel inlet port (or

vaporizer test port) should be 7 - 11 inch WC (17 - 28 mBar) at

full load and with all gas appliances turned on and operating.

Maximum pressure drop from static (engine not running) to

full load is 0.5 inch WC (1.3 mbar). Maximum pressure with

engine OFF at no load is 13.85 inch WC (34.5 mbar). Liquid

propane fuel pressure at generator inlet should be 100-250

psi (690-1725 kPa).

Power Loss

Engine power will decrease:

• 1.5% for every 10°F (5.6°C) above rated temperature

of 77°F (25°C).

• 2.5% for every 1,000 ft (305 m) above rated altitude of

1,200 ft (366 m) above sea level.

A - Power Connection - Power connection to transfer switch.

B - Neutral Connection - Connect to transfer switch neutral.

C - Ground Connection - Connect to transfer switch ground.

Ground the generator per applicable codes, standards, and

regulations. There are two generator GND lug locations.

The location shown by (C, above) should suffice for most

applications. The second generator GND lug is located on the

frame. This should ONLY be used for a ground rod located at

the generator, if required by local codes.

For system connections such as remote start, e-stops, and

controller inputs and outputs, refer to the connection diagrams

on the following pages.

• For power output connection, use 75°C (167°F) wire

rated for ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F) per NEC

Tables 310.15(B)(16) and 310.15(B)(2)(a).

• For utility circuit connection, use #14 AWG minimum 600

volt, 167-194°F (75-90°C) wire.

• For transfer switch communication, use #18 AWG

twisted pair conductors, no greater than 200 ft (60 m) in

length, 600 volt, 167-194°F (75-90°C) wire.
