Household Power Audit

Performing a power audit helps you identify why your bills are high. Often, it's not the big appliances used rarely (like a washing machine), but the medium ones running 24/7 (like an old fridge or desktop PC).

Common Wattage Guide

  • Ceiling Fan: 60-80 Watts (Old) vs 28 Watts (BLDC)
  • LED Bulb: 9-12 Watts
  • Tube light: 40 Watts (Old) vs 18 Watts (LED)
  • PC / Laptop: 200W / 45W
  • Water Heater (Geyser): 2000-3000 Watts

The "Phantom Load" Issue

Many devices draw power even when turned off if they are plugged in. TVs, microwaves, and chargers can add 5-10% to your monthly bill just by being in "standby" mode. Unplug them!

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate Units?

1 Unit of electricity = 1 Kilowatt-Hour (kWh).
Formula: (Watts × Hours Used) ÷ 1000 = Units.

Does a 5-star fan really save money?

Yes. A standard fan uses ~75W. A 5-star BLDC fan uses ~28W. If you run 3 fans for 12 hours a day, switching to BLDC saves ~₹3,000 per year.
