Codes and Standards Powering Ahead

Generac products are designed to the following standards: Generac ensures superior quality by designing and
manufacturing most of its generator components, such
UL2200, UL508, UL489 as alternators, enclosures, control systems and
communications software. Generac also makes its own
CSA 22.2 spark-ignited engines, and you’ll find them on every
Generac gaseous-fueled generator. We engineer and
TM

BS5514 and DIN 6271 manufacture them from the block up — all at our
facilities throughout Wisconsin. Applying natural gas
and LP-fueled engines to generators requires advanced
SAE J1349
® engineering expertise to ensure reliability, durability and
necessary performance. By designing specifically for
NFPA 37, 70, 99, 110 these dry, hotter-burning fuels, the engines last longer
and require less maintenance. Building our own
® engines also means we control every step of the supply
NEC700, 701, 702, 708
chain and delivery process, so you benefit from single-
source responsibility.
ISO 3046, 7637, 8528, 9001
Plus, Generac Industrial Power’s distribution network
NEMA ICS10, MG1, 250, ICS6, AB1 provides all parts and service so you don’t have to deal
SPEC SHEET

with third-party suppliers. It all leads to a positive

ANSI C62.41
owner experience and higher confidence level. Generac
IBC 2009, CBC 2010, IBC 2012, spark-ignited engines give you more options in
ASCE 7-05, ASCE 7-10, ICC-ES AC- commercial and industrial generator applications as
156 (2012) well as extended run time from utility-supplied natural
gas. 1 of 6
