13. 6 WATTAGE INFORMATION Except RGV13100T Some appliances need a surge of energy when starting This means that the amount of electrical power needed to start the appliance may exceed the amount needed to maintain its use Electrical appliances and tools normally come with a label indicating voltage cycles Hz amperage amps and electrical power needed to run the appliance or tool Check with your nearest dealer or service center with questions regarding power surge of certain appliances or power tools a Electrical loads such as incandescent lamps and hot plates require the same wattage to start as is needed to maintain use Loads such as fluorescent lamps require 1 2 to 2 times the indicated wattage during start up a Loads for mercury lamps require 2 to 3 times the indicated wattage during start up a Electrical motors require a large starting current Power requirements depend on the type of motor and its use Once enough surge is attained to start the motor the appliance will require only 5096 to 3096 of the wattage to continue running Most electrical tools require 1 2 to 3 times their wattage for running under load during use For example a 9 000 watt generator can power a 3 200 to 7 000 watt electrical tool oads such as submersible pumps air conditioners and air compressors require a very large force to start They need 3 to 5 times the normal running wattage in order to start For example a 5 000 watt g
