Generator 

Wattage 

Capacity

Generator Running (Rated) Watts

Generator Starting (Surge) Watts

Gasoline: 3800W

Gasoline: 4750W

LPG: 3500W

LPG: 4350W

What this means:

The generator can produce a maximum of 

3800W/3500W 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 individual 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 

motors. 

The generator can produce a maximum 

wattage of 4750W/4350W 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, or you may refer to Fig. 11.

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 

3800W/3500W.

 

It is recommended to maintain a load at or 

below 3420W/3150W

 

(90% of the rated 

output) to ensure steady voltage output and 

to prolong 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

 4750W/4350W.

If any of either of the total calculated running watts or starting watts is higher than the 

capacity of your generator, adjust the load until both wattage requirements are met. Other-

wise 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.
