How do you expect to electricity

How to calculate the electricity consumed per month.

Let's start with the simplest - the duration of daylight.In summer, daylight hours are much longer, the early dawn and darkens later, respectively, and electricity for lighting, we spend much less.With regard to the occurrence of the autumn and winter, when the light day very short and most of the time we try to spend at home, respectively, increases and consumption.And it is immediately reflected on the meter readings.

calculate the actual consumption of electricity per month for example, conventional incandescent light bulbs with 100 watts / 0.1 kW.To do this, the power must be multiplied by the lamp operating time (about 9 hours a day) and multiply by the number of days.

0,1 kW * 9 hours * 30 days = 27kVt hour.This figure is multiplied by the number of lamps increases and consumption respectively.

But besides light bulbs which provide us the light, there is a considerable number of household appliances and devices that are simply filled our apartment and have different power requirements.Therefore, when buying appliances, always pay attention to the economy class.The most economical is considered an indicator of class A, these devices consume the least amount of energy.

So, in order to calculate energy , we need to know:

How to calculate the payment for electricity.

for accurate accounting of energy consumption in each apartment or house has a device that adds the actual flow rate - is the electric meter, whose testimony we charge and pay every month.In order to correctly calculate the monthly electricity consumption, you need to take away from the current readings initial reading.The resulting figure will be an indicator of consumption per month.

But in order to get paid for the light, it is necessary to take into account many of the indicators, for example, to know installed in your area the current tariff, iethe cost of 1 kilowatt-hour.

According to the existing tariffs in Ukraine from May 2012 you will pay:

• 28,02 cop.for 1 kW / h (if energy consumption per month is 150 kW / h)
• 36,48 kopecks per 1 kW / h (if the consumption exceeds 150 kWh / month)

Another thing that you need to know - how the instrumentthe account you use:

• one tariff (fixed fee, which is valid for one day)
• dual-rate (payment depends on the time of day)

to calculate how much amount to your payment each month, you will need:

• Determine howInstruments of the calculation you use;

• Remove the current value of the electric meter, which you see on the dial;
• From this figure defraud indication specified receipt for payment in the "initial index»
• resulting number should be multiplied by the then current rate (taking into account the differences of electricity consumed)
• The end result is the sum to be paid for the current month.

properly and correctly calculating the actual power consumption and the cost of it, you will learn how to save significant amounts of money from the family budget.
