  • 240V 32A (CEE)
    • Feeds a distribution board or one large load.
  • Ground (earth) terminal
    • Added safety & compliance.

Running vs. Starting Watts — Know the Difference

  • Running watts = power to keep equipment operating.
  • Starting watts = brief surge to start motors/compressors.
  • Running watts (blue bar)
  • Starting watts (red marker)
  • Generator running capacity (dotted line)

What Size Generator Do I Need?

Guide only — add up running watts for items used together, then ensure the single highest starting surge stays within generator limits.

Why True Sine Wave Matters

  • Clean power output — safe for laptops, TVs, phones & sensitive kit.
  • Lower harmonics — reduces buzz in audio & signal distortion.
  • Protects equipment — helps prevent overheating & premature wear.

Tips for Choosing the Right Generator

  • Total your running watts for everything you’ll use together.
  • Identify the largest starting surge and keep a little room.
  • Use the right socket — 32A for one large load or a distribution board.
  • Runtime matters — match tank size & Economy Mode to your day.
