Appliance Wattage Information
Use the table below as a guide to determine how much
power you will need to run appliances.
NOTICE
The values provided in the following table are estimates only.
• ALWAYS verify actual wattage requirements for appli-
ances by checking appliance label, operating manuals,
or contacting the manufacturer.
• Appliances with electric motors require additional
power when starting.

Appliance Wattage Calculator
Use the below area to calculate both the running wattage
and additional starting wattage for your appliances. Run-
ning wattage is the amount of power needed to run the
appliances continually. Additional starting wattage is the
power needed to start appliances with electric motors.

Powering Appliances
Select the appliances you wish to power and fill in the
Running Watts and Additional Starting Watts col-
umns. These numbers are best obtained from the
appliance label, operating manuals, or contacting the
manufacturer. The Appliance Wattage Information
chart in this manual is also available for reference.
Add together the Running Watts and enter the total in
the Total Running Watts box.
Enter the Additional Starting Watts of the one appli-
ance that uses the highest starting wattage (see gray
box below) and enter the number in the Highest Addi-
tional Starting Watts box.
Add together the Total Running Watts and Highest
Additional Starting Watts and enter the total in the
TOTAL STARTING WATTS box.
Use this number to verify the selected appliances can
be powered without exceeding the generator capacity.
