Sizing Calculator


This calculator is designed to estimate the power consumption of a residence. The generator should be oversized to compensate for starting motor loads and other items which may have been forgotten. Always consult a sales person prior to purchase.

To use this calculator, select the wattage of the appliances you wish to use. Enter the quantity of each appliance. This will provide you with a sub-total, this number can be modified for your convenience. All of the sub-totals are then totaled at the bottom.
