Here's the calculation:
A hair dryer typically consumes between 1,000 and 1,800 watts of power. Let's assume an average power consumption of 1,500 watts per hair dryer.
Therefore, the power required to operate two hair dryers will be:
2 hair dryers × 1,500 watts/hair dryer = 3,000 watts
The 2.8 kVA generator has a power output of 2,800 watts (since 1 kVA = 1,000 VA).
Since the total power required by the two hair dryers (3,000 watts) exceeds the power output of the generator (2,800 watts), it is not sufficient to power them simultaneously.
Therefore, you cannot power two hair dryers with a 2.8 kVA generator.
