(4)Appliances without any indication as to power consumption
Some appliances have no indication as to power consumption; but instead the work load (output) is indicated. In such a case, power consumption is to be worked out according to the numerical formula mentioned below.
(Output of electrical appliance)
(Efficiency)
Efficiencies of some electrical appliances are as follows :
Example 1: A 40W fluorescent lamp means that its luminous output is 40W. Its efficiency is 0.7 and accordingly, power consumption will be 40÷0.7= 57W. As explained in Item (2), multiply this power consumption value of 57W by 1.2 to 2 and you will get the figure of the necessary capacity of a generator. In other words, a generator with a rated output of 1000W capacity can light nine to fourteen 40W fluorescent lamps.
Example 2 : Generally speaking, a 400W motor means that its work load is 400W. Efficiency of this motor is 0.7 and power consumption will be 400÷0.7= 570W. When this motor is used for a
The power consumption of electrical appliances is shown below for reference, use this as a measuring guide when choosing electrical appliances and which generator to use.
