Build the essential-load list
List lights, fans, Wi-Fi, television, refrigeration, laptops and any medical or work-critical equipment that may operate together.

An online tool is a planning aid. Final selection should consider appliance behaviour, backup duration, installation conditions and the approved product specification.
