Hi, the below says a washing machine is 800W....

...is that the average power over the whole thing including spin?
How much power does one typically draw during the spin phase?
 
800 watts maybe an average value. on spin cycle, only the motor is running, a few amps. the heater is around 2kW, but this is only in use when heating the water to the presettemperture.
