  • Page 19: Wattage Information

    WATTAGE INFORMATION CHOOSING THE CORRECT GENERATOR: Domestic Generators are for backup use only and are not recommended for continuous use. It is rec- ommended to allow 20% above the wattage you need when choosing a generator. So a 1000W heater would generally need a 1200W generator.
  • Page 20 HOME APPLICATIONS CONTRACTOR APPLICATIONS RECREATIONAL APPLICATIONS FARM EQUIPMENT...
  • Page 21 WATTAGE INFORMATION (CONTINUED) Depending on their wattage output, generators will run anything from a small lamp to a number of large appliances. To determine the size generator you will need, total the wattage of the maximum number of items you will be running simultaneously. For example: running a 1 00 watt light bulb, a 200 watt slow cooker, a 1 ,200 watt refrigerator with a start up wattage of 2,900 watts and a 750 watt TV would require 3,950 watts.
