Will a 2000 watt inverter power a sump pump?
It depends on the power requirements of the sump pump. For a typical residential sump pump, a 2000 watt inverter should be enough. However, it's important to check the power consumption of your specific sump pump to ensure the inverter can handle it.
Can you run a 30 amp pump on a 7500 watt generator?
Yes, you can run a 30 amp pump on a 7500 watt generator. The pump will draw approximately 3600 watts (30 amps at 120 volts), leaving enough capacity on the generator to power other devices at the same time. Just make sure to check the starting wattage of the pump as it may temporarily draw more power when starting up.
Will 2500 generator run a laminating machine 240v 10a 50hz?
Yes. 240 volts at 10 amps is 2400 watts. The generator is 2500 watts maximum. If the generator is 2500 peak power it may not run it very long. If the continuous power rating is at least 2400 watts it should be OK.
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.
How many items can you connect to a 4500 watt portable generator during an power outage?
The number of items you can connect to a 4.5 kW generator circuit depends on the items available and on the importance of each item. A refrigerator should be plugged in first, followed by lights. Maybe ten lights; since your generator will need ample reserve to keep from stalling when the refrigerator cycles over. A fan may be operated; but an air conditioner would likely be out of the question.

Will a 1000 watt generator operate a sump pump?
That depends on the power requirement of the sump pump. A 1000 watt generator (if this is running watts) will produce 1000 watts continuous. Through some simple math, this is equivalent to 8.33 amps at 120 volts. Current (in Amps)=Power (in Watts)divided by Voltage (in Volts). On your sump pump, there is something called a nameplate which lists model number, serial number, manufacturer, and power requirements. The power can either be listed in watts directly, or in amps (at 120v). If it lists watts directly, this number is either higher or lower than your 1000w generator. If it lists amps, your generator will supply 8.33 amps continuous, as figured above. Likewise, you can find out if your generator can power any given load by using this method. Just divide the listed wattage by 120 to get amps. Also, motors do pull higher current when they start, so it is usually recommended to size the generator larger than you would otherwise when you are running a motor, such as your pump. If the sump pump is right up there at 8 amps, it would be pushing the limit to expect it to run the pump. Some smaller generators too are so-called "inverter" units, and many of these are not recommended for motor starting duty. Check the generator's manual to be sure.

What can a 900 watt generator power?
with a 900 Watt generator, your actually running about 800 watts and it jumps to 900 when apliances kick in. You should be able to power your refrigerator and sump pump during an emergency, depending on the power consumption of your fridge. As a rule of thumb look at both for wattage usage and add another 10% for when they kick on and that should give you what wattage you need. For example Lets say your running the following Standard energy saver 18 cu.ft Refrigerator - 300 watts. runs 30% of the time Sump Pump - 500 watts. Stays on 100% of the time. Wattage low until pump kicks in. The maximum wattage your using is 800 watts. However when one or both apliances kick on there is an extra energy draw. BTW a 900 Watt generator would be perfect for camping to run a few lights and small appliances.
Can a 1000 watt generator run a 1500 watt ceramic heater?
A 1000 watt generator cannot run a 1500 watt ceramic heater without having problems.

How many amp flow through a 2400 watt appliance plugged into a 220 volts socket?
how many amps flow thruogh a 2400 watt appliance plugged into a 120 volt outlet
How do you size a generator to operate a pump that draws 7 amps on each leg of a 240 Volt Circuit?
At 240 volts, and 7 amp current, you will have a load of 1680 watts (volts x amps = watts). A 2000 watt generator will sufice, however a 3500 watt generator, if within your budget, will power a few other necessities if required.
Will a 3000 watt generator power a 15 amp circular saw?
