when using a generator, would like to monitor watts of gen out put using 240volts aprox 45 amps.

Meter shows volts and amps. To get watts you would multiply the two. Volts x amps = watts or (E x I= P).

Thats what I'm doing only I'm using two because output on the 120/240 legs ar not the same..................................... Don

Mb75 would work. My generator is 6000 running watts and 8250 surge and it works great.

I don't have this device but I don't see why it wouldn't meet your needs. It will supply current at 15V and is rated for up to 70 watts, so 45 watts use should be fine.

No, J.R., really, nothing "technical" about it. It's a four prong L1430 plug that connects toyour xp4400E L1430 4 prong plug that splits into two (2) count-em-TWO 120v plugs that allow you to use both "sides" of your generator. Each 120v plug can be used for up to 1750 watts. Check the reviews, especially from RJ and Ernie the Wireman.... The "other" plug you asked about is a 3-prong-plug.... It won't work..... Be sure you flip the 120/240v switch to 240.... YES, 240... The Y adapter splits that into two 120v plugs.....

There is a 30 amp outlet on the generator, and with this adapter, you can use 3 regular 110 outlet extension cords with it, by plugging it in.

At the rated load yes but it won't carry 10, 500 watts. 30 amps at 240volts is 7, 200 watts. If you're determined to get more than that you'll need multiple lines or a higher amp receptacle on your generator. If your generator has a 4 prong twist lock 30 amp receptacle and 240 volt output this is the right cord.

Ideally would be 24 watts, without considering conversion losses etc. Being a switching supply, it should be close to the that (basic formula is P=I*E, P is power, I is current, E is volts).

I have recently purchased a P4460. It nicely and accurately measures (among other things) Volts, Amps, Watts, and Kilowatt Hours.To measure WATTS (instantaneously) : Press the MENU button until you get to the VOLTS scale. Then press the UP button until you get to WATTS.

You will need a double breaker with a minimum of 25 amp on each side. I have a double 30 on 1 panel and a double 40 on the other (I have 2 hookups) The Generator has its own breaker as well if over drawn.

The device sheet specifies that it can handle 10 Amps or 2500 Watts. (You can assume the power strip load is virtually zero.) Just add up the max power drawn by each device you plug into the strip and keep the total under 2500 W.If you only have the current load (@ 120 Volts) divide it by 2 to get the load that appears at 240 V. Keep this current total under 10.

Just order a consumer meter made for Great Britain. Google "kill a watt uk". Or search on amazon.co.uk for kill a watt.

Press Menu until you get to Volts, then press Up or Down keys to find Watts.That is what the manual says.

It depends which plug your generator has. The ones I am familiar with have a 4 prong twist lock type 240 plug. I use one that is split into 2 120 plugs, but if you want to use 240v, you just need to see what type of plug is on the generator and the appliance you are using. If you are not sure, ask an electrician to be safe.

it can give instantaneous readouts so just have somone watch it while applying your peak load, you can also see what voltage your outlet is deliveringa and at what frequency, not all outlets are equal and power company delivery can be uneven.

I have a watt meter plug into the generator and the reading is always dead on at 60 hertz.

The amp rating for this generator is 33.3 amps @ 240 volt and 66.7 amps @ 120 volt. The twist lock outlet can be used with either voltage.

I had an old 1700 watt generator during sandy. It powered my fridge and a bunch of other small things. The 3000 watt inverter isn't overkill tho. It won't draw more power than it needs. Battery needs to be good and charged as much as needed. Car alternator at least. Cables need to be thick for 3000 watts.
