How many watts does a whole house generator use?

The size of a generator is based on what the connected load will be. Add up all of the connected wattages that will be connected to the generator at one time and add ten percent, this will be the size of the generator you will need. Some equipment does not show the wattage on its nameplate. To find the wattage use the following formula Watts = Amps x Volts.

What size wire and breaker do you need to run a 9000max watt generator?

If you average 2000 kw of usage per month what size generator do you need?

You would need to size your generator to power the items that you need to power during a power outage (freezer, refrigerator, etc.). The fewer items you need to power the smaller the generator you can get. Items such as water heaters, air conditioners/heat pumps and electric furnaces use more energy than most smaller generators can supply. Any one item plugged into a 15 amp outlet would use less than 2000 watts each (max). A 5000 watt (continuous rating) generator should have no problem powering a refrigerator, a freezer and a few lights. Larger items like A/C, water heaters and electric furnaces would need to be turned off for a generator this size.
