The Usable Capacity of the Panasonic Microwave Oven NN-L627BA

The Panasonic NN-L627BA is an older model countertop microwave unit. This microwave oven has an automatic defrost and reheat function, as well as manual power and time settings and quick-minute key pads. The microwave is designed to hold just a specific usable capacity and should only be used as designed.
  1. Cavity Specifications

    • The Panasonic microwave unit has an oven cavity that is approximately 9 inches by 15 inches by 16 inches in size. This is the equivalent of 220 mm by 375 mm by 395 mm in size. Heating large amounts of food may take longer than cooking smaller items at one time.

    Microwave Dimensions

    • Overall, the microwave has a size of 12 inches by 22 inches by 17 inches. When installing the countertop oven, ensure that it is set on a flat, stable surface with at least 3 inches of space on both sides of the microwave and at least 1 inch of clearance from the top of the unit. Do not block any of the air vents, as this may prevent proper functioning.

    Power Capacity

    • As with any home appliance, the Panasonic NN-L627BA requires a fair amount of power to operate correctly. The microwave has a power consumption of 13.5 amps and 1,550 watts. The output of the microwave is approximately 1,000 watts. Plug the microwave into an outlet with 120 volts, 15 amps and 60 Hz of power. If you are not sure of the power capacity of your outlets, use a volt meter or contact an electrician for assistance. Do not use an extension cord for the microwave.

    Microwave Weight and Operation

    • This unit has an overall weight of around 38 pounds. Do not attempt to lift or carry the microwave if you are not certain of your ability to carry that amount of weight. Never try to cook with metal items or cookware in the microwave, as sparking or fire may occur. Children should not use the microwave when unsupervised.
