RE: How to work out what type of power generator?

["Nigel Giddings" <nigel.giddings@xxxxxxx>]

I would also be interested in any professional advice. I had decided on a
10Kva. My understanding is the biggest issue is that generators like to be
kept at 60% load or thereabouts so I have included to 3Kw immersion heaters
in my hot water tank (Heat Store) as a load that can be switched in
automatically when loads are light, through the night as an example...

You have all seen the news, how do you work out what type of generator
needed to run a typical home?

i.e. I want to buy a generator how do I work out my current loading and
then
how do I choose the generator?

Any help would be most appreciative.
