My side-by-side fridge, which is about 8 years old, uses 70 watts on average. When the compressor is actually on, it draws about 200 watts after an initial spike of ~400 watts. The fridge draws 5 watts when idle.

The voltage at which a refrigerator works depends on country to country. For example. In my country, India all the electronics works in the voltage range of 230-240V. In USA it is around 110V. It does not depend on the units of electricity being consumed or the duration of its work....

Usually a 1500w inverter is enough, depending on the power of your refrigerator, refrigerator is induction appliance, inverter power = refrigerator power x 5,

Recommend to buy Amazon ETREPOW pure sine wave inverter.

You need to read the fridge's nameplate to get the power rating you will need to supply from the inverter.

120 Volts multiplied by 1.4 Amps equals 168 Watts. This may be steady state current though so allow more for startup. Also the fridge probably does not have the pump running all of the time so figure the 'on' time compared to the 'off' time for a true average.
