==AC Load ==
The AC load is based on the duty cycle of an appliance. The duty cycle is the hours it is used in a day (24 hours).
AC load is calculated thusly:
* <number of this appliance type> * <watts rated> = <watts total>
* <hours used per day> / 24 = <duty cycle>
* <watts total> * <duty cycle> = <watts/hour>
The below table identifies many common appliances and suggests some default values. Always confirm your actuals.
