WATTAGE DEMAND FOR ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
AND APPLIANCES @ 120V.A.C.
NOTE: A PRUDENT MARINER REALIZES THAT THE RESOURCES TO POWER A VESSEL ARE
LIMITED. WHEN USING THE ALTERNATE POWER SOURCES ONE SHOULD BE CONSERVATIVE
AND AWARE OF THE AMOUNT OF POWER BEING SUPPLIED VERSES POWER BEING DRAWN
THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT WHEN USING THE INVERTER POWER. CONSULT THE
"INVERTER MANUAL" FOR POWER OUTPUT CAPABILITIES.
FIXED APPLIANCES:
SEE MANUALS AND/OR SPECIFICATION SHEETS IN YOUR OWNER'S PACK
PORTABLE APPLIANCES:
BELOW ARE APPROXIMATE EXAMPLES OF THE AMPERAGE DRAW ASSOCIATED WITH CERTAIN ITEMS.
APPLIANCES: / WATTS:
COFFEE MAKER..........800 - 1,000 WATTS
FRYING PAN..............1,000 - 2,500 WATTS
TOASTER...................800 - 1,000 WATTS
FAN...........................75 - 300 WATTS
RADIO........................60 - 150 WATTS
TV/DVD/STEREO..............250 - 600 WATTS
HOT PLATE................800 - 1,200 WATTS
HAIR DRYER..............700 - 1,100 WATTS
SHAVER....................50 - 100 WATTS
CLOCK.......................25 - 50 WATTS
BLENDER...................250 - 350 WATTS
TOASTER OVEN.........1,250 - 1,700 WATTS
MICROWAVE……………900-1200 WATTS
ALTERNATE POWER SOURCES: / PROVIDED WATTS:
SMALLER MODEL INVERTER..........1,000 WATTS
MEDIUM MODEL INVERTER..............2,000 WATTS
LARGER MODEL INVERTER..............2,500 WATTS
SMALLER MODEL GENERATOR.......…6,000 WATTS
LARGER MODEL GENERATOR..............8,000 WATTS
SHORE POWER (PER INLET)..............3,600 WATTS
EXAMPLE: TV (250-600)+ TOASTER (800-1,000)+ HAIR DRYER (700-1,100) = TOTAL (1,750-2,700)
THUS, IF THE WATTS BEING USED EXCEEDS THE WATTS BEING PRODUCED, THEN SOME OF THE ITEMS
IN USE WILL NOT BE FUNCTIONAL. AGAIN, IT IS IMPORTANT TO BE AWARE OF THE AMPERAGE DRAW
VERSUS THE AMPERAGE OUTPUT AT ALL TIMES.
