Generator not taking load

hello C.,

Go to the Champion generator website and look for their load wattage calculator. It is a fairly generic list of items that are common with most households.


I usually find out the running wattage of an item (on a label or tag attached) and then multiply that number by 3 to come up with the starting wattage number.

It is best if you don't try to start refrigerators and freezers (or anything with a capacitive start motor) at the same time. Allow a minute or two in between so it does not stress the generator too hard.
