Generator sets

[shadow]

question:

say you have the ff appliaces/equipment:

- 1hp A/C
- 1hp ref
- 1hp water pump
- assume 400 watts for the lights, fans, laptop

say 1hp is roughly 750watts, and generally the starting wattage of the said appliances are x3..so 2,250watts....granting that you start each appliance one at a time, can you make do with a 3Kva generator? How would you know that the appliance is finished with the "starting" phase?


btw, as a generator ages, would you expect the max. output to go down as well? gano kaya kabilis magdegrade?

alanganin ang 3KVA, go for 5 KVA. I really don't know since and ginagamit ko lang na malakas ang wattage eh fridge. then pag gagamit ako ng water pump to fill our over head tank eh, pinapatay ko muna yun switch ng MTS tapos directly i-plug ko yun water pump sa gen set para solo lang siya. then after mapuno na tank saka ko gamitin ulit for the house.

matagal magagamit ang gen set.
