Home backup power · preliminary planning

How long could the essentials stay on?

Build a planned outage load from the supplied Electrafy worksheet and compare the nominal runtime estimate for one to four battery modules.

Current official brochure values are product context. The estimator below preserves the supplied worksheet’s separate 6,000 W screening rule; watts and volt-amperes are not interchangeable without application details.

Electrafy ES-6 planning tool

Build the outage load.

Enter quantities for always-on loads and planned hours, operations or recharges for occasional loads. All fields start at zero so every result reflects an intentional selection.

The worksheet example adds one modem and one full-size refrigerator. It is an example only, not a recommended circuit list.

What the estimate means

A planning result—not a runtime guarantee.

01

Nominal energy

The supplied worksheet uses 5,000 Wh for each battery module and does not apply inverter loss, reserve, temperature, age or depth-of-discharge factors.

02

Planned-use block

Hours, operations and recharges are deducted once from nominal energy. They are not automatically repeated for every day of a multi-day outage.

03

Continuous load

Remaining nominal energy is divided by the worksheet’s effective continuous watts, including its stated duty-cycle averages.

04

Load screening

The worksheet adds selected running values and flags 6,000 W or more. It is not a starting-surge, power-factor or electrician’s circuit calculation.

Medical and safety-critical loads need a separate plan.

Never rely on this estimate alone for life-support, emergency preparedness or medically necessary power. Confirm real device nameplates, startup loads, required runtime, transfer strategy and installation with qualified professionals.
