STARTING WATTAGE REQUIREMENTS
1. Some applianoas and tools will list on the motor nameplate the starting
and running voltage and amperage requirements. Use the following
formula to oonvert voltage and amperage to wattage:
Volts X Amp -- Watts
Example: 120 volts x 10 amps -- 1200 watts
2. To determine the approximate starting wattage requirementfor most
applianoas and tools with inductive "typemotors, multiply the Wattage that
was oalculeted by 2 to 4 times to assure adequate generator capaoity. If
the nameplate information is not available use the values on the following
chart as a guide.
3. Remember that the starting and running wattage for rasistive loads are the
same. (Example: a 100 wart light bulb requires only 100 watts to start.)
Most resistive loads will be listed in wattage.
