120V, 1500W heater 1500W
120V, 10A chain saw 1200W
120V, 500W halogen lamp 500W
Total 3200W This loading is OK.

120V, 5A router 600W
120V, 500W halogen lamp 500W
Total 3800W This loading is not OK.
It exceeds 3500W.
Notes: 1. Each receptacle of the duplex can provide 15A/1800W. Do not parallel the two 120V duplex receptacles.
2. Do not parallel the two 120V circuits.
3. Do not parallel the two duplex outlets.
Calculating total power provided by generator.
(See Section 10 – Auxiliary Power Guidelines)
Each receptacle can provide the watts or amps as shown
above. However, the total power can not exceed 3500W.
The rating plate on electrical apparatus will contain the watts
consumed or the rated input amps. Watts may be calculated by
multiplying the rated voltage by the rated input amps.
watts = volts x amps
