Maybe that motor can turn the generator, but you won't get
2,500 watts out of it. 1 horsepower is only 746 watts.
<<>>
A one HP motor draws 16 amps on 115 volts and 8 amps on 230 volts.
Using the formula W = A x V = 16 x 8 = 1840 watts. It shows that the motor will run on a 2500 watt generator. Where the problem might arise is getting the motor to start.
Generally a motor takes 300% of its running current to start. 16 x 300% = 48 starting amps. Back to the first formula W = 48 x 115 = 5520 watts. The 2500 watt generator is just under half of the wattage needed to start the motor.
Try the generator, one of three things will happen, one the generator will stall, two the generators breaker will trip or three the motor will run.
Some generators have a temporary overload output built into them that will allow the above generator rating output for a certain amount of seconds.
If your generator has this feature then the motor will probably start.

Will 2500 generator run a laminating machine 240v 10a 50hz?
Yes. 240 volts at 10 amps is 2400 watts. The generator is 2500 watts maximum. If the generator is 2500 peak power it may not run it very long. If the continuous power rating is at least 2400 watts it should be OK.
What is the price of a 2500 rpm generators?
The standard rotation of a generator engine is 1800 revolutions per minute. This standard speed is brought about by the number of poles that the generator portion of a generator has in its stator.
What watt gearator to run a electric log splitter?
usually a 2500 watt generator is 2500 max 1250 watts constant, so if you could find a 1250 watt log splitter then yes, but it is hard to find such a wimpy log splitter, usually the 5 ton ones are at least 1500 watts, a 2500 max generator might be able to hold 1500 watts for a few seconds before it cut out, so it is possible, but a 4000 watt max generator (2000 watt steady) should be able to run a log splitter that takes up to 2000 watts without any hicups. by the time you bought both the generator and the electric splitter you could just buy a gas powered splitter instead.
What the abbreviation 2500 2500 watts PMPO mean?
PMPO stands for Peak Music Power Output. Its is one of many ways of rating the output capacity of speakers.
What can you power with a 3000 watt generator?
A few small things. Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = 800/120 = 6.66 amps. Check the amperage on what you want to plug into the generator. If it is over 6 amps the generator will not handle the load.

How much can you power on a 2.5kva generator?
It can supply 2.5 kW to a load with a power factor of 1. Otherwise the power available must be multiplied by the power factor which is always less than 1. If uncertain assume 0.8 which makes it 2 kW.

How much electricity will a Honda portable generator give me?
It depends on how much you are willing to pay. For an economy generator, the cheapest generator will put out 2500 watts, while the most expensive generator will put out double that amount.
