I have a GE 3 cu ft compact fridge at home and Im thingking if I can use my 500 watts avr on it since I already have one in the house. The user manual of my fridge doesn't have any wattage or ratings written except it is 220V, & 60Hz. Thanx for helping me out & good day...

A quick check of some mini fridge specs show they draw about 1 amp when running but take about 3.5 amps to start. For 220 V operation, it would be half of that, or about 0.5 amp to run and around 1.75 amps to start. Starting would be around 385 watts then and 100 watts running. The 500 watt AVR should have no problem with this.

Hi. The fridge uses 220 volts. Usually they only use 5 amps or so. If your AVR can supply and sustain that power level then try it.
