Sources and data
The appliance references behind our generator calculator: the reviewed dataset in use, how values are checked and where the data has limits.
Active dataset: 1.2.2. It contains 55 appliance variants, of which 50 are calculator-ready. Held entries are excluded.
Open an appliance’s details and select “View source” for its references. A source listing does not mean every published number enters the calculation. Manufacturer generator recommendations appear separately from calculated requirements.
Version 1.2.2 is a controlled migration of reviewed data, not a fresh measurement campaign. Some source archives are incomplete. Typical values are planning estimates; use exact appliance specifications when available.
