DON'T OVERLOAD TH E

G EN ERATO R

Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage capacity can result in damage to the generator and/or connected electrical devices. Observe the following, to prevent overloading the unit:

Add up the total wattage of all electrical devices to be connected at one time.This total should NOT be greater than the generator'swattage capacity.

If the appliance,tool or motor does not give wattage, multiply 120Volts times ampere rating to determine watts (volts x amps = watts).

The rated wattage of lights can be taken from wattage listed on the light bulbs.The rated wattage of tools, appliancesand motors can usually be found on a data plate or decal affixed to the device. Use Figure 12below as a general reference.

Some electric motors, such as inductiontypes, require about three times more watts of power for starting than for running.This surge of power lasts for only a few seconds when starting such motors. Be sure you allow for this high starting wattage when selecting electrical devices to connect to your generator. First figure the watts needed to start the largest motor.Add to that figure the running watts of alt other connected loads.
