Yes, you can run an electric clothes dryer from a 7500-watt generator, provided that the generator's output is sufficient to handle the dryer's starting and running wattage. Most electric dryers require between 3000 to 6000 watts to operate, but they may need significantly more power (up to 8000 watts) for a short burst when starting. It's essential to check the specifications of both the dryer and the generator to ensure compatibility and avoid overloading the generator. Additionally, proper connections and safety precautions should be observed when using the generator.

It's important to first check the electrical requirements for the clothes dryer and compare them to the fuse box capacity.

Avoid overloading the existing circuits without proper guidance as it can be a safety hazard.
