Power Requirements
Now you know approximately how much power you need to start and run your appliances and
equipment.
This chart lists average power requirements. Your particular tool or appliance may require more
or less than the listed wattage.
Important Note
Always select a generator that has more capacity than your load requirements. The small
amount extra you may invest to do this will be quickly recovered with the fuel saving and longer
service life gained by not having to constantly run your generator at full load.
