Generator
Wattage
Capacity
Generator Running (Rated) Watts
Generator Starting (Surge) Watts
Gasoline: 3500W
Gasoline: 4375W
LPG: 3150W
LPG: 3950W
What this means:
The generator can produce a maximum of
3500W/3150W on a continuous basis to sup-
ply ongoing power to your electronic devices.
NOTE:
Also check the rated amperage for each
outlet and make sure not to overload the indi-
vidual outlets.
What this means:
Some devices such as box fans require short
bursts of extra power in addition to the rated
wattage listed by the device to start their mo-
tors.
The generator can produce a maximum watt-
age of 4375W/3950W for a short period of
time (seconds) to cover the extra starting
power required by your electronic devices.
Electronic
Device Wattage
Calculation
Find the wattage information of each device you plan to connect. The information should be
listed on the device or in its instruction manual.
The wattage can be calculated using this equation:
Watts = Volts x Amperes
To calculate the total running watts of your
devices:
+ Add up the running wattages of all the
device(s) you plan to connect
= The total running wattage
This wattage should NOT exceed the running
wattage of
3500W/3150W.
It is recommended to maintain a load at or be-
low 3150W/2835W
(90% of the rated output)
to ensure steady voltage output and to pro-
long the generator’s lifespan.
To calculate the total starting watts of your
devices:
+ Add up the total running wattage of all the
device(s) you plan to connect
+ Add the single highest ADDITIONAL start-
ing wattage out of the device(s) you plan to
connect
= The total surge (starting) wattage
This wattage should NOT exceed the starting
wattage of
4375W/3950W.
If any of either of the total calculated running watts or starting watts is higher than the capac-
ity of your generator, adjust the load until both wattage requirements are met. Otherwise you
will overload the generator, and cause damage to the engine and your electrical device(s).
CALCULATING THE WATTAGE OF YOUR DEVICE(S)
Connect electrical devices running on AC current according to their wattage requirements. Calculate the total run-
ning wattage and starting wattage of the device(s) you wish to connect, and MAKE SURE that they are within the
capacity of your generator and the capacity of each individual outlet.
