Before deciding which generator you need, it is important to consider
ALL
the appliances you will be operating, how many will be
used simultaneously and the
TOTAL
current consumption at any one time. Most appliances have a description plate stating the
current, usually in watts.
IMPORTANT
TV sets, cookers HI-Fi, kettles and
¿
lament lamps have resistive loads, their starting and running current being virtually the same, and
as stated on the description plate. Fluorescent lamps (on average) require approximately 1.5 times their stated wattage to start-up.
Hand tools with universal-type motors need an extra 5% added to their stated power consumption.
Altrad Belle Mini/Maxi concrete mixers, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, freezers and central heating pumps usually employ induction/
capacitor type motors. Their starting current can be three times the normal running requirement: check the description plate carefully.
Note for example, a Altrad Belle Mini 140 and 150 mixer, having a motor wattage of 650 watts input multiplied by three would give a
total starting requirement of 1950 watts, therefore a 2.2 kw Altrad Belle generator would be required.
If in doubt, check with the appliance manufacturer. Microwave ovens are often referred to by their cooking power,which on average is
half their actual operating power consumption. However, switching on the oven consumes an extra 25% power as the capacitor is
energised. Thus, a normal ‘600 watt’ microwave oven actually needs 1500 watts to operate it.
TYPICAL CURRENT CONSUMPTION
The following is presented as an approximate guide to the power requirements including start up when applicable.
