Peak w/ motor surge

"Total" is a simple sum of nameplate watts. "Peak w/ motor surge" adds the extra startup surge of your single largest motor on top of everything else already running — a rough worst-case, not an NEC-compliant calculation. Confirm real service sizing with your electrician or ACEC's load checklist review before committing to 200A vs 320A.

Power Source Comparison

Grid plans aren't power-limited — they always cover the load. Battery/inverter options are checked against your peak-with-surge figure above.

Ongoing Costs

Recurring annual costs across every category - utilities, subscriptions, service plans.

Selected so far

If all under consideration

"Selected" sums only options you've marked Selected - the real committed number. "If all under consideration" sums every candidate with a cost, including alternatives you would never run at the same time (e.g. two competing internet plans) - use it as a ceiling, not a forecast.

No ongoing costs recorded yet. Add an "Est. annual cost" when editing an option.
