How much power does my old fridge use?

**Off the wall topic: **We’re in California and in case of an earthquake, I set up an external generator to run the fridge, furnace, notebook, router and cable model, and a few lights.

Some research says when the fridge cycles on, it will stall the generator – and wondering if I need to invest in a soft start device.

**The question: **The fridge motor that cycles on, the one that spikes and potentially dims the lights, is what? The condenser fan motor --or something else?

fridge model: TBX23ZH-B
Condenser Fan Motor - 115V (WR60X187)
