You have to make a decision as to what you want to make your priority loads. Once you have established this, add up all the load wattages. Use the following formula if you can not find what the wattage load is from the nameplate of the device. W = amps x volts. Generators are rated in wattage. Your load wattage total must be under the load wattage capacity of the generator.

How many kwh will a 40 kw 120v 333a generator produce in 24 hours?
If the generator is rated 40 KW, it doesn't mean the generator pours out 40 KWwhenever it's running. It means you can take as much power as you want from itas long as you don't try and take more than 40 KW for too long, because that couldoverheat or damage the generator.Notice that your 40 KW is just the product of the rated voltage and current:120 V times 333 A = 39,960 watts = nominal "40 KW".We point that out in order to mention that the voltage and current rating of thegenerator are irrelevant to the answer.If you load the generator to its max of 40 KW continuously for 24 hours, thenit delivers (40 x 24) = 960 KWH of energy.
Is a 2.8 kilowatt generator big enough to run a house as a standby?
No, a 2800 watt generator is not large enough to run a home as stand by power. For a generator ot produce 100 amps a 25,000 watt or 25 kW generator would be needed. Since a house uses about 50 to 60 amp at any one moment during normal everyday living, a 60A x 240V = 14,000 watts. A 15 kW generator would be the minimum size generator to run a house without cutting back on any loads.
What size generator to produce 50 amps?
To completely power everything you would need a 12KW generator. However in an emergency you can live with a 5.5KW generator. You will not however be able to run an electric oven at all. To run an electric water heater almost everything else will have to be shut off. You will have to ration the power.
Need labeled diagram of a generator?
Generators come in many shapes, sizes and connections. You have to be more specific as to the voltages, kva, kw, or amperages, to get this question answered.
How many watt generator to run a 150 amp service?
You will need a 50 kW generator for a single phase 120/240 volt service.
How many kw generator is good for 1.5 ton air condition?
5.274 KW
How many watt generator does it take to run your home?
If the service is single phase 200 amp then you would need a, W = A x V, 200 x 240 = 48000 watt generator. Since there are no 48kW standard generators you would have to use a 50 kW generator. If your home distribution panel is 100 amps then a 25 kW generator will work.
How many gallons does a generator use per hour?
Depends upon the Kw rating of the generator. The higher the Kw rating the more fuel will be used.
How many alternator generator turbines will it take to run a full household?
It depends on the total connected load (KW) of the house. If the total connected load is about 20 KW the alternator generator should be designed to meet peak 20 kw load
Would 8 kva generator run a small house?
Yes, an 8kVA generator can run a small house. A generator this size should be able to adequately power a one ton air conditioner, 18 cubic foot refrigerator, and other small appliances normally found in a small house.
2.25 HP means how many KWH?
if your talking about a generator its not the hp of the engine its the size, rpm, and gearing of the generator motor
Can a 400 kw generator handle a 460 kw load?
Since the breaker that is installed on the generator set will be sized to the output of the 30 kW generator, the load will stay connected until the thermal trip of the breaker trips the load off line. This will be in the matter of seconds before it happens. To handle a 75 kW load and depending if it is an inductive or a resistive load you will need at least a 80 to 100 kW generator.
How many kw generator required for 7.5 hp motor?
To answer this question the motor voltage and amperage is needed.
What size generator do you need to move a 30 hp electric motor?
A 5 kW generator would turn it over but if the full 30 hp of mechanical power is needed, that would require about 30 kW of electric power from the generator.
Can I use a gas generator in my home, if so what size should I buy?
Anyone can use a gas power generator at home. However, you must figure out what your needs are for a generator. Different ranges of power usage will require different kinds of power outputs. If you aim at using a power generator for a few things, you might be interested in a small power generator. If you aim at powering an entire home, you'd want a power generator of at least 30 kW.
Emergency generator 135 kw using in crew ship?
