Champion 201614 26kW fleX™ Home Standby Generator with 200 Amp Transfer Switch
The Champion 201614 26kW fleX™ Home Standby Generator with 200 Amp Service Entrance Transfer Switch is Champion's highest-capacity residential standby power package, engineered to provide dependable whole-home backup for large residences and properties with demanding electrical requirements. Combining a powerful 26kW fleX™ standby generator with a 200-amp service entrance automatic transfer switch, this complete system automatically restores power within seconds of a utility outage, keeping your home and essential systems operating without interruption.
Delivering 26kW on liquid propane and 23.4kW on natural gas, this generator provides the capacity to operate multiple air conditioning systems, refrigerators, freezers, lighting, well pumps, electric water heaters, home offices, security systems, and many other high-demand electrical loads. The included 200A service entrance transfer switch continuously monitors utility power and automatically transfers your home's electrical system to generator power during an outage before safely returning to utility power once service has been restored.
Champion's advanced fleX™ platform offers intelligent technology designed to maximize both performance and installation efficiency. The programmable fleX™ load management system allows homeowners to assign electrical loads to priority levels, enabling a smaller generator to efficiently manage larger homes while preventing overload conditions. Power Line Carrier technology eliminates the need for dedicated communication wiring by utilizing your home's existing electrical wiring between the generator and transfer switch, reducing installation time and labor costs. Integrated Wi-Fi Direct capability allows installers to commission and configure the entire system quickly from a smartphone or tablet.
Designed for dependable year-round performance, the generator is powered by a 999cc Champion V-Twin engine operating at 3,600 RPM with an electronic governor for precise frequency control. Its rugged all-aluminum weather-resistant enclosure, advanced airflow system, and four slide-lock access panels provide long-lasting durability while simplifying maintenance and servicing. A 24-volt electric starting system delivers reliable starting in temperatures as low as -22°F, while less than 5% total harmonic distortion (THD) ensures clean, utility-quality power for today's electronics, appliances, and smart home technology. Backed by Champion's industry-leading 10-year limited warranty, the 201614 is built to protect your home for years to come.
