A *small* "whole home" generator is about 14KW.  OK if you are
careful with your sequencing loads.  A normal home service is 24KW.

 A typical home in Spain (a flat) is typically limited to 3.45 KW. Mine is nominally limited to 2.3 Kw. Affluent or bigger homes could be 5.75KW.

A smaller home may have a 60A service (~14KW).  The 100A service
(24KW) tends to be the norm (in older developments).  Newer homes
have 200A services (48KW).
We tend to be bigger energy consumers than the rest of the world
(i.e., "pigs").
