Abstract: A system for remotely monitoring operation of a stand-by power generator is provided. The system comprises a transfer switch for maintaining the powering of a load in the event of line voltage failure and a stand-by power generator. A sensor board is operably connected to the stand-by power generator to sense operation and/or failure of the stand-by power generator to operate, and also is operably connected to the load side of the transfer switch to sense provision and/or failure of provision of powering of a load. A logic board is operably connected to the sensor board to receive signals from the sensor board. The logic board comprises a signal apparatus capable of sending a signal to a remote location regarding information related to indicating i) provision and/or failure of provision of powering of a load, ii) operation and/or failure of the stand-by power generator to operate, and iii) time of operation of the stand-by power generator. A kit is also provided for configuring a system as described above.
