If you need 50 amps you can use a 60 amp generator or any other generator rated to supply more amps. The voltage, 110 v or 240 v, must be the right voltage for the load used.

How many amps is 8500 watts generator?

The equation that you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. The generator has the capacity to supply 25 amps. Of course the load is what governs the amount of amperage drawn. Any load greater than 25 amps will load the generator down and probably trip the generator's breaker.


What can you run off an 8000 watt generator?

Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = Watts/Volts. 10000/120 = 83.3 amps can be used at 120 volts. On a generator that large it is most likely that it also has the capacity to produce 240 volts. 10000/240 = 41.6 amps can be used at 240 volts. What you can connect to the generator will be totals of the amperage of devices that do not go above these amp ratings.


Which consumes more power 480 volts or 240 volts?

Volts isn't power. Volts times amps is power, also known as watts. Thus 480 volts at 2 amps consumes 960 watts, which is the same power usage of 240 volts at 4 amps or 120 volts at 8 Amps.


How large a 110 volt generator is needed for a 40 amp 12 volt battery charger?

amps*volts=watts 40 amps *12 volts= 480watts watts/volts=amps 480watts/110volts=4.36363636amps So you need a 110 volt generator that can produce about 5 amps as a bare minimum. To take into account system heat loses that occur when converting power consider doubling it to be safe. (this is over kill but the advantage is that your generator is not working at full capacity at all times)


What can a 800 watt generator power?

You can power any amount of devices that total to a sum of 800 watts. If you can not find the wattage on the devices nameplates then use the amperage of the devices. I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts. 800/120 = 6.6 amps. A total of 6.6 amps can be used from a 800 watt generator.

How many amps will a 4300 watt generator produce?

36.6 amps maximum at 120 volts, but should not be loaded to over 29 amps. At 240 volts it will produce a maximum of 18.3 amps but never loaded to any more than 14.6 amps.

1000 watt generator power can it power a compact fridge?

yes, it has an output of 20 amps @ 120v so it will power any standard refrigerator. I believe a 900 Watt Generator will only handle 7.5 amps at 120 Volts.

How many amps can a 9000 watt generator produce?

If your generator is rated at 1000 watts continuous......and you are using 120V.....available amps are 1000/120 =8.3 .

What size generator 1200 amps?

First you need to specify what voltage you require the generator to supply...Lets Assume its 240 Volts AC. Watts=Volts x Amps so 240x1200= 28.8 Kw. Then you have to take the efficiency of the generator into account. Mechanical power in is usually quite a bit more than the electrical power you get out...The difference is mostly the mechanical and thermal losses added together. If we say the generator is 70% efficient then you will need a generator 30% more powerful to supply a constant 1200 Amps...Thats a generator of about 38-40 Kw.

A 9000 watt generator equals how many amp output?

The relationship between amps (electrical current, or I), volts (electrical potential, or V) and watts(electrical power, or P) is represented by the equation P=VI. So at 110 volts, a 9000 watt generator can provide a maximum of about 82 amps.
