A standby application is where mains power exists, and the generator is only operated in the event of blackout. The Fuchtardt FT Standby Range is ready for plug and play installation. The units come with an Auto Mains Failure control system, soundproof canopy and fork skid base. Fuchtardt FT Standby Generators also include a direct plug receptacle for an Automatic Transfer Switch. Out of the box, Fuchtardt machines will detect a blackout, start automatically, transfer your load over to generator power, and then put your load back on mains and stop automatically once mains power is restored.
