Consider the voltage. The second consideration is voltage, or the pressure under which current flows through an electrical system. While most U.S. appliances work at 110 volts, many foreign power companies generate electricity at 220 volts. Some appliances have a toggle switch that allows them to work with both voltages, but for non-dual voltage appliances, you'll need a converter to step down the 220 electric current to 110 so your appliances won't burn out.
Open your refrigerator and look for a sticker that lists technical specifications. Find the voltage and amperage of the refrigerator; for instance, you may see 115 V and 6.5 amps.. Multiplying these two numbers tells you how many watts your refrigerator uses -- in this case, 747.5 watts.Smaller refrigerators typically use about 350 watts, while larger models use as much as 780 watts.our refrigerator's wattage is toward the higher end of the spectrum among the appliances in your home. Clothes dryers use a minimum of 1,800 watts but may use as much as 5,000 watts. Dishwashers use about 1,800 watts.
