Where to find appliance power consumption

[jdarwin]

We have a 2019 3931FB. Does anyone know where to find the wattage on the appliances?
I’ve been trying to find the power consumption of the 120 vac appliances with very little luck. For example we have the Samsung 18cf fridge. Neither the manual or the Samsung website has the specs.
Also, the ceiling fan is the same. No data.
I’m needing this info to correctly size a generator.
I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks

To find watts you multiply amps times volts. Somewhere on all electric equipment you will find a tag listing, amongst other info, amps.

When it comes to your refrig you don't want to do straight math based upon the name plate data. You want the information from the energy efficiency tag usually found hanging from one of the racks when the unit is new, since a residential refer has a duty cycle. The information will most likely be in kw-hrs. along with a dollar usage estimation for the year. devide the kw-hr by (voltagex1000) and you will get amp hours which is much more useful than just amps in our scenarios.

Okay I am lazy. I would just plug in and turn everything on I would want to use and check the current draw that my surge protector says I am drawing. If Refer is warm when you start that will be worst case scenario.

If you tell folks what you want to run they can tell you what size generator they use to power the same.

Sometimes I think I make things too hard Jeffba. Since the unit has a 50 amp connector l would need a 5500-6000 watt generator. That would be a worst case scenario.

Well it you want to be able to run as if you were plugged into shore power.

Folks here have reported using from a single 2000W to 2 3500w in parallel.

So a lot depends on what you want to run or to be able to run.

That is why I suggested to turn what you will be using and look to see what your current draw is and go from there.

Less math that way.

jdarwin,

I agree with Jeff.
Would also add the thought that you may not always want/need to run everything and 1 smaller genny would do all you need and be much quieter, too.
