Can a 2000W Diesel Generator Power an 1800W Appliance?

Many netizens often don't know what power of generator to choose when purchasing a generator. For example, they often ask us whether a 2000-watt diesel generator can drive an 1800w appliance. The editor from Dingbo Power Generator Manufacturer can give you a detailed answer to help you make the right choice!

In resistive loads such as lighting, electric water heaters, rice cookers, induction cookers, etc., if the rated power of the appliance is 1800W, a 2000-watt diesel generator can drive it, but it is not allowed to work at full load or near full load for a long time. Under normal circumstances, this will cause great damage to the generator. We choose the generator according to 60% of the generator power, that is to say, the load of a 2000W generator can only drive 1200W appliances for a long time. Therefore, in the case of resistive loads, the generator can drive 1800W appliances, but it cannot be used for a long time.

So for an 1800 W appliance, what size generator do we need to choose?

First of all, if using resistive loads, it is difficult for us to directly choose a generator. We can calculate and purchase using the formula 1800W ÷ 0.6 = 3000W. That is to say, we can choose the generator according to 60% of the generator power to ensure the long-term normal use of the generator. However, this calculation method is for reference only. For details, you can call Guangxi Dingbo Diesel Generator Manufacturer, and there are professional technicians to answer you.

Secondly, if we use inductive loads, we should choose according to the situation of the inductive load. Because we don't know the specific inductive load data, if we use a 2000W inductive load appliance, then we should choose a generator of about 5000W to 6000W.
