Edh Power Calculator

Electricity costs can quickly add up, especially when multiple appliances run for several hours each day. To help households and businesses better understand their energy usage, the EDH Power Consumption Calculator is designed to simplify the process of estimating electricity consumption and costs.

This calculator enables you to input details such as the number of appliances, their wattage, daily usage hours, and unit cost of electricity. The tool then generates accurate results, including total daily and monthly energy consumption, estimated bills, and even cost per appliance.

By using this calculator, you can pinpoint which appliances consume the most electricity, make smarter usage decisions, and ultimately save money while conserving energy.

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Use the EDH Power Consumption Calculator

Using the calculator is simple and requires only a few quick steps:

1. Enter the Number of Appliances
   • Start by selecting how many appliances you want to calculate for (up to 20).
2. Input Appliance Details
   • For each appliance, provide:
     • Name (e.g., Fan, Air Conditioner, Refrigerator).
     • Power in Watts (usually listed on the appliance label).
     • Daily Usage Hours (number of hours you run it daily).
3. Set EDH Power Supply Hours
   • Enter the average number of hours per day your EDH (Electricité d’Haïti or similar power supply) is available.
4. Enter Unit Cost of Electricity
   • Input your cost per kilowatt-hour (kWh). For example, $0.12 per kWh.
5. Click “Calculate”
   • The tool will simulate calculations and display:
     • Daily and monthly consumption.
     • Estimated monthly bill.
     • Average daily cost.
     • Cost per appliance.
6. Review Tips & Results
   • The calculator also provides energy-saving tips based on your usage patterns.
7. Copy or Share Results
   • You can copy the results for record-keeping or share them directly with others.

Practical Example

Imagine you want to calculate your monthly electricity bill with the following appliances:

• Refrigerator – 150 watts, 24 hours/day.
• Fan – 60 watts, 8 hours/day.
• Air Conditioner – 1000 watts, 6 hours/day.

You set the EDH supply to 8 hours/day and the unit cost at $0.12 per kWh.

The calculator shows:

• Total Daily Consumption: 8.8 kWh
• Total Monthly Consumption: 264 kWh
• Estimated Monthly Bill: $31.68
• Average Cost per Day: $1.06
• Average Appliance Cost per Month: $10.56

This gives you a clear breakdown, making it easier to adjust your usage (for instance, running the air conditioner fewer hours) to lower your bill.
