1. What is Energy Consumption Calculation?

Energy consumption calculation estimates the monthly electricity usage in kilowatt-hours (kWh) for electrical appliances in Indian households. This helps in understanding electricity bills and managing energy usage effectively.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the energy consumption formula:

\[ kWh = \frac{Power (W) \times Hours}{1000} \times Days \]

Where:

\( Power \) — Power consumption of appliance in Watts
\( Hours \) — Daily usage hours
\( 1000 \) — Conversion factor from Watts to kilowatts
\( Days \) — Number of days used per month

Explanation: The formula converts power consumption from Watts to kilowatts, multiplies by daily usage hours, and then by monthly usage days to get total kWh consumption.

3. Importance of Energy Consumption Calculation

Details: Calculating energy consumption helps Indian consumers understand their electricity bills, identify energy-intensive appliances, and implement energy-saving measures to reduce costs.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter power in Watts (check appliance label), daily usage hours, and monthly usage days. All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How do I find the power rating of my appliance?
A: Check the manufacturer's label on the appliance, usually located on the back or bottom, showing power in Watts (W) or kilowatts (kW).

Q2: What is the average power consumption for common appliances?
A: LED bulb: 7-15W, Fan: 50-75W, Refrigerator: 100-400W, AC: 1000-2000W, TV: 50-200W depending on size and type.

Q3: How does this relate to my electricity bill?
A: Electricity bills in India are calculated based on kWh consumption multiplied by the tariff rate set by your distribution company.

Q4: Can I use this for commercial calculations?
A: Yes, the same formula applies, but commercial tariffs may have different rates and additional charges.

Q5: How can I reduce my energy consumption?
A: Use energy-efficient appliances, turn off devices when not in use, use natural light, and maintain optimal temperature settings.
