1 hp = 746 watts
2.5 x 746 = 1825 watts or 1.825Kw
The Generator is large enough.

Which capacity of generator is required to run 25 hp electric motor this motor will be used to run a water pump to pump the water from tube well?
25 HP is 25 HP, no matter how you slice it and dice it.
What generator produce voltage or power?
First of all power = voltage* current*power factor (a constant that varies on the characteristics of the electrical system) so to generate power a generator has to a level of voltage and should be capable to handle the current demand of the load (viz electrical load like the bulb we use at home or the pump motor - everything connected to the generator by electrical wire put together).
Will AC power tools run on a DC generator?
If the power tool has brushes to bring the current to the armature it is classed as an universal motor. It will run on DC as long as the voltage is the same potential. On a welding machine the 120 volt receptacle is a DC output and the grinders, drills, etc that are plugged into it work fine.
What is the problem with using an electric motor to run a generator stepped up with transformers that is used to run the motor and give electricity for other uses?
It's all to do with the conservation of energy. The output power of the transformer cannot be greater than the input power from the motor used to drive your generator! In fact, it will be significantly lower than the power of your first motor due to the efficiency of the motor, of the generator being driven by that motor, and of the transformer. So if you then try to run the original motor from the output of your transformer, the energy-losses will simply accumulate, and the motor will not be able to run!
When is a good time to use power generators?
A good time to use a power generator is when there is a power cut in the vicinity. power generators will provide a temporary energy source for household essentials to be run from.
Can a5500 watt generator run a 1 horse power motor?
It could run a 7-HP motor but the voltage has to be right.
Reasons why a 5500 watt generator will not run a well pump?
It could be a number of things. Your pump's operating voltage could be 240 volts and your generator's output is only 120 volts. The generators output voltage can be found on the generator's nameplate. The horse power size of your pump could be too big for your generator. When dealing with motors remember that when a motor starts its inrush could be 300% of the full load amps. To see if this is happening, take the full load amps and multiply it by 3. Then multiply that number by the voltage that the pump runs on. This number will be the starting watts of the pump. If this number is higher than that of your generator and the generator almost comes to a stop when the load is applied,then the generator is too small.
Can you plug a power strip into a generator to run multiple items?
Yes, you can plug a power strip into a generator to run multiple items.
How many hours will a propane generator run after the power goes out?
The factors that determine how long a propane generator can run are the size of the propane tank, the size of the generator, the brand of generator, and what is being used under the generator's power.
Can you run a 30 amp pump on a 7500 watt generator?
To answer this question the voltage of the pump must be stated.
How large of a generator do you need to run your sump pump?
See discuss question below.
What are the electric bills like if you have a pool?
It depends on your community and the cost of electricity, the horse power rating of the pump and how many hours of run time.
Will a 2400 watt generator run a sump pump?
A sump pump usually uses 200-400 watts. So 3.5kW is way overkill. That should be about enough to power sump pumps for your entire block.
What is a home water power generator?
A home water powered generator is a source of power to run your electric when the power goes off. It runs from water and pressure, you can get them from Lowe's.
How much can you power on a 1600 generator?
If the 1600 represents 1600 watts like most generator numbers do, then the generator can deliver enough power to run a 1600 watt load connected to it.
Is generator used in nuclear or solar energy?
Generators are nearly always used for nuclear power, and sometimes used for solar power. In nuclear power plants, the reactor makes steam to run a generator. Much of solar produced electricity does not use a generator, but produces power through a photovoltaic effect. Concentrated solar can be used to make steam to run a generator.
If you have a pump with 260KW absorbed power at pump shaft and you want to run it on steam turbine then the steam consumption will be based on aborbed power by pump shaft or the steam turbine power?
Pump power is based on BHP = Hydraulic horse power + pump mechanical efficiency Absorbed power = BHP + electric motor eficiency in your case you dont need to account for power absorbed by pump shaft as it would include motor efficiency. your steam consumption will be based on following : normal operating = based on BHP of pump Maximum required = turbine rated power
