Not quite sure what you mean but all appliances are rated by active INPUT
power, not device power.

Graham


for example sticker on the back of the oven specifies -grill
power=1300w
-microwave input power=1250w,microwave output power=650w;what is the
relation of those numbers to transformer power and , output of say 2kv
& 200-300ma and would you select mag from catalogue as 1250w or 650w
model?


Here's an example.

I have a Philips model LE31 microwave (rebadged Samsung).

The power consumption is 1150W and the maximum power output is 650W.

The magnetron is a Samsung 2M-204M3. This is substituted by a WES AWI
AM701 rated at 850W.
