Calculate Total Power Output Required.
Once you
have decided the type of generator that best meets your needs you then
need to calculate the power output that you require depending on the
appliances that you intend to use. This task may seem a little daunting
but is actually quite simple. The following 4 steps will help you
achieve this.
A. Identify the tools and appliances that you will power from the Generator
B. Determine the required wattage for each item.
C. Total the wattage required to power your identified items
simultaneously. (Allowing extra for motor starting). However, if you
have an appliance with a high wattage but will not be used continuously
this can be considered in your calculation. (Example) When in your
caravan, turn your lights and TV off when you need to use the
microwave!!
D. Choose a Generator that has continuous rated watts that meets or exceeds this total.
Wattage Table.
To help you identify the wattage
of the tools and appliances that you need to power from the Generator
please use this table. However, please note that the watt’s shown are
only an average recommendation, therefore please check your items before
use.

Keep in mind that induction-type motors, like those that run sump
pumps, refrigerators and compressors typically require 2-3 times their
listed running watts to start
