In order to address your question we would need to know how many kVA each window A/C unit uses and what other loads the generator is powering.

I think this is a duplicate post. I recently answered the same question. Maybe the OP did not like the answers on the previous thread, and simply tried again.

The normal power consumption of a 2 Ton Window Air conditioner is about 2.2 kW or about 3 kVA. Now, you do your mathematics and find out how many ACs you can connect. But, also please consider transient kVA requirements.
