Hello,
I always remembered how much electricity the appliances in the house burn. I decided to move this topic to my blog, calculating what you think about it.
What we need to know first.
Kw - Kilowatt - KW (Electrical Power pulled by your device)
T - Hour (Runtime)
F - Ectric Unit price (You can learn this from the unit price in your electricity bill)
Since electricity expenditures are calculated in KWh, the unit of measurement written in Watt must be converted in KW. To make this conversion in the formula, dividing into 1000 is done.
Formula: Kw * T * F / 1000 = Fee To Be Paid
Based on this example, let's try to calculate the electricity that a vacuum cleaner burns in 1 hour. The power values they spend in Watts on all of the electrical devices are written. It says 2000Watt on my broom.
Power: 2000 Watt
Time: 1 Hour
Unit Price: 0,42 TL (I write a general value, you get this value as the unit price on your invoice)
Accordingly: 2000 * 1 * 0,42 / 1000 = 0,84 TL (That is, a 2000 Watt vacuum cleaner consumes 84 Kurus electricity in 1 hour.
Let's calculate the monthly expenditure of a 24-hour device. For example, a computer is running continuously in my house. My computer's PS (500 Watt is written on power supply, but when I measure it with this max meter, the general expenditure of the machine is seen as 180 Watt. So how do I calculate this. With the measuring instrument, we learn the current drawn by your device while working, and then find the power with the OHM law.
U * I = P
U = Mains Voltage
I = Current drawn by the device
P = Power Watt
220 * 0.81 = 178.2 Watts - I also gave the change tolerance to this, I received the flat account as 180 Watts.
Now let's learn about the monthly contribution of this device to my bill.
180 * 24 * 30 * 0,42 / 1000 = 54,432 TL
Yes, in the case of a device with 180 watts working continuously for 24 hours , it is seen that it spends 54,432 TL per month .
"Of course, you need to add tax and the license fee, which is not clear what is paid, to the price that this device burns!"
With the same method, you can find the total cost of all the devices in your home and find a total amount. Of course, it is necessary to calculate the working time of these devices. For example TV Refrigerator laundry machine Iron etc.
Thank you.
