- Turn entered continuous loads and daily run-times into a simple backup power and energy schedule.
- What you get: Continuous kW · daily kWh · entered surge allowance.

How it works
Continuous power is the sum of loads assumed to run together. Daily energy is each entered load multiplied by its run-time. Starting demand is kept as a separate entered value because appliance behaviour is product-specific.
Estimates only: for guidance, not a quote or a compliance certificate. Verify against the current AS/NZS standards and a licensed design. The maths runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to Wattbench unless you sign in and deliberately save the result.
