<p>I have a macerator in my basement, I just measured it, and I was
hitting roughly 1100 watts peak for 1 sec. I don't know what the
Hp rating is, but its 120 vac, so I'm guessing 1/2 Hp. Do they
have to have 2 Hp? That seems over kill. The one we have does a
great job on a toilet, shower, and 2 sinks. <br>

Hey Esteemed Wrenches,<br>
<br>
So I recently built a power trailer with a single 4 KW (4048)
Schneider SW for a client with a moderate cabin lifestyle.<br>
<br>
But he lives on a high hill and even though his 2 HP Macerator is
only rated at 15 amps continuous that baby starts up with a
whopping kick - probably close to or at it's 53 Amps Locked Rotor
rating.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">The SW has the following surge
capability:</span><br>

<br>
Can I be confidant that 2 stacked SWs will start this baby?<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Any experience with similar
macerators - or simply educated guesses</span><span
