Method 1 requires using the load wattage estimating chart. It gives two figures of watts needed to power various loads; Running and starting watts.
Add up all of the watts estimated for the loads / appliances / tools that you want to operate at the same time.
If the load is a reactive type, use the STARTING WATTS for your estimation.
Select a generator that is as large or larger than the total number estimated. Example: If you only want to run a refrigerator (2200 starting watts) and (2) 100 watt light bulbs (200 watts) - You would need a 2500 watt generator.
