Running vs. Starting Watts — Know the Difference
Running watts = power to keep equipment operating. Starting watts = brief surge to start motors/compressors. Running watts (blue bar) Starting watts (red marker) Generator running capacity (dotted line) GP3800iE: 3800W max / 3500W running Fridge-Freezer0 3800W Run ≈ 180W | Start ≈ 1200W Microwave
0 3800W Run ≈ 1000W | Start ≈ 1000W Angle Grinder
0 3800W Run ≈ 800W | Start ≈ 1400W Circular Saw (7¼")
0 3800W Run ≈ 1500W | Start ≈ 2400W
Typical values — always check your device’s label. If your largest starting surge approaches 3800W, avoid running other heavy loads simultaneously.
