I'd need your collected expertise about a generator.
I have a cheapo chinese petrol generator. Its rated output is 650W and 800W peak.
I have measured the output voltage and its OK at 241volts (I'm in the UK) and my kill-a-watt meter says the frequency is 52Hz. The mains here measures 49.9 or 50.0Hz dead on.
Is this safe to run a small fridge freezer (It draws 120W - I've checked) or is the output from these things "dirty". It does work but is it ok to run for a couple of hours say twice a day if the power goes out?
