According to Briggs & Stratton, the advanced system is designed for affordable installation and can be customized to manage the diverse energy demands of the entire home while using a small, fuel efficient standby generator. Featuring scalable remote power controls, the new system uses the home’s existing electrical wiring to establish network between appliances and a standby generator.
The company said that the Symphony II system is the result of over five years of standby power management research and development and expands upon the launch of the patented Symphony power management controls introduced by Briggs & Stratton in 2009.
Michael Betker, marketing manager of Briggs & Stratton, said: ” The new system takes power management to a whole new level enabling consumers to establish a personalized Standby Power smart grid in their home to automatically and efficiently manage backup power for the whole house, including the cycling demands of up to eight high wattage appliances.
” The system manages loads using remote power modules that are easily installed directly to the existing home wiring next to each high watt appliance. Installations therefore require less new wiring, take less time, and cost less than typical systems. The unparalleled flexibility of the innovative new Symphony II power management system allows consumers to pinpoint their exact unique power requirements, select the most efficient system, and ultimately achieve affordable whole house comfort when the power goes out ”
