120 VOLT AC POWER OUTLET

RATED VERSUS ACTUAL CURRENT DRAW OF EQUIPMENT

Most electrical tools, appliances, electronic devices and audio/visual equipment have labels that indicate the power consumption in amps or watts. Be sure that the power consumption of the item to be operated is below 200 watts. If the power consumption is rated in amps AC, simply multiply by the AC volts (120) to determine the wattage.

Resistive loads are the easiest for this unit to run; however, it will not run larger resistive loads (such as electric stoves and heaters), which require far more wattage than the unit can deliver on a continuous basis. Inductive loads (such as TVs and stereos) require more current to operate than do resistive loads of the same wattage rating.
