generac generator Used

what will a generac 8000kw generator do for a 2100 square foot home?
liquid propane fuel used
I think you mean 8000 watt (or 8kW).
There are two things you need to look at.
First, make a list of the loads that you want to be able to use on the generator. Add up the loads, and compare that with the rating of the generator.
Second, look at the largest motor on the loads that you want to serve. That will probably be a well pump, grinder pump, or blower on your HVAC system, or AC compressor. The generator kW rating needs to be about 5-6 times the motor HP rating for the generator to be able to support the starting inrush of the motor. Note that you only want to look at the single largest motor - you don't need to worry about simultaneous starting of multiple motors.
My wife has been talking about getting an emergency generator, and while I'm not convinced yet, I've done my homework and concluded that a 5kW machine would meet out needs.

should i use my GENERAC generator to power my ps3 and 32" LCD?
just in case of a power out. its say it can power most sensitive electronic devices such as TV’s, computers and DVD players without destroying them is this true.
If your generator is in good operating condition it should be ok for whatever you want to power. I used my Generac 5500XL to power my home during power outages. It connected to a transfer panel that fed the well pump, microwave and toaster ovens, lights, outlets, and even satellite television and computer.
