UL GenerLink, Руководство по эксплуатации

Страница: 16 / 17

You will want a generator that can run the largest appliances and motors you
will need during an outage. You can always run other smaller loads/appliances
by rotating them on and off as necessary.
For example, if you have a generator with 8,500 continuous watts of capacity,
during a power outage, you can run the hot water heater (typically 4,800 watts)
by simply turning off the majority of other household breakers until the water
tank heats up. Once the water is heated, shut off the water heater breaker and
switch the other household circuit breakers back on.
To determine the loads you can support with a portable generator, you must
consider both the “running watt” and the “starting watt” requirements of the
loads you want to operate. (See Appliance Energy Guide in this manual)
You can purchase or use a generator of any size provided the generator
is equipped with a 4 wire, 120/240-volt receptacle rated at 20-amps or
30-amps.
