Presp,
I figured that if the genset could start and run the miter saw, anything in the house would run okay. The saw was right at hand, so I used it.
I'll check the current rating when I get home, but I typically run it on a standard 15A circuit. When the failure occured, neither of the circuit breakers tripped.
Thanks for the lead on the amp clamp. There are just a few circuits I'll be powering from the genset. Furnace, fridge, and freezer, and a few lights. The transfer panel I'll be using has watt meters in it to monitor how each leg of the 220V gets loaded.
