About product
Among the latest additions to Briggs & Stratton’s lineup, the PowerProtect PP13 standby generator is part of the acclaimed PowerProtect series — engineered for dependable whole-home backup power. Thanks to precision electronic voltage regulation, it delivers utility-grade electricity with less than 5% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), keeping even sensitive appliances safe.
With 13,000 running watts on propane and 11,500 running watts on natural gas, the PP13 can start two 4-ton air-conditioners (37 kVA motor-starting capability) and keep every essential circuit online. Dual-fuel operation lets you connect to an unlimited natural-gas supply or an external propane tank, giving you continuous protection during extended outages.

Power for every essential
From refrigerators and sump pumps to HVAC systems and medical equipment, the PP13 provides seamless, utility-quality power so your home remains fully functional and comfortable when the grid goes down.
Fuel-efficient performance & extended runtime
The Vanguard® V-twin engine is purpose-built for standby duty. Connect it to your home’s natural-gas line for virtually unlimited runtime, or to a propane tank — consuming as little as 1.7 gal/hr at half load.
Whisper-quiet operation
An oversized muffler, low-idle exercise mode, and sound-dampening enclosure keep noise as low as 65 dB(A) during self-test — quiet enough to satisfy strict neighborhood ordinances.
Clean, stable power for electronics
The synchronous alternator and electronic regulator maintain a tight voltage/frequency window, protecting smart TVs, routers, and home-automation hubs from harmful voltage spikes.
Durability & safety you can trust
Its all-metal enclosure, cast-iron-sleeved cylinders, and integral vibration isolation are designed for decades of service. Safety systems include low-oil shutdown, high-temperature shutdown, and NFPA 37-compliant 18″ clearance certification.
Intuitive controls & remote monitoring
The GC-1032 controller features an LED interface with fault codes, real-time clock, and hour meter. Add the optional InfoHub™ module for 24/7 status updates, maintenance alerts, and load data on your phone.
