I think of my brother and sister-in-law, the two of them often travel on business, but the electricity bill does not fall every month, and someone comes to urge the bill every once in a while.
At the time, I was still wondering, and then I asked about the situation, it turned out to be a lot of going out, these 5 electrical appliances do not pull the plug caused, although every day to look at not much, but over time, there are still a lot of it.
1. Router
Most families are closed all year round, and it is convenient to access the Internet at any time, but if you go out for a long time, you must remember to turn it off.
The power of the general router is more than 10-20 watts, the power is very low, and if it is used normally, it consumes about 0.24-0.48 degrees a day, and it is about 7-20 degrees a month, which is not much.
But if you don't turn it off when you go out, even if you don't use it, its power is about 4-5 watts, that is, you have to pay 3-4 kilowatt-hours of electricity if you are not at home for a month, and more in a year.
Proper electric assassin, waste money and waste energy, let's save this money to buy a cup of milk tea.
2. a set-top box
Unexpectedly, the set-top box that does not turn off the power is also an "electric assassin"!
Generally, the power of the set-top box is about 16 watts, if it is opened for 24 hours a day, it will consume 0.38 kWh of electricity a day, 11.5 kWh in a month, 138 kWh in a year, over the years, I really dare not count it.
The key is that today's people can't watch TV a few times a year, but they have to pay so much electricity bills for it, it's not cost-effective, and when you don't use it daily or go out, you can pull out the plug.
3. Air conditioning
It is considered a large electrical appliance at home, and it is best to unplug it when not in use.
Someone has done a test, the power consumption of the living room air conditioner in the standby state is about 6 watts, so calculated, a day is 0.144 degrees, a month is 4.32 degrees, a year is 51.8 degrees, according to a degree of 5 cents, a year is 25 yuan.
You have to go to work on time to earn the 25 yuan, but you spend it invisibly.
4. Electric water heater
If you go out, remember to unplug the electric water heater!
The main thing is that it will repeatedly boil the water, and if the water temperature comes down, it will automatically burn again to the set temperature, even if you don't use it, it is very electricity-intensive.
Roughly calculated, it will consume nearly 30 kilowatt-hours of electricity if you don't use it for a month, which is quite an exaggeration.
5. Computer
When the computer is standby, the power is about 2 watts, that is, even if your computer is in a dormant state, it will consume about 2 kilowatts of electricity every month and 24 kilowatt-hours a year.
It's not much, but it's scary to accumulate over the long term.
Generally speaking, the power of the computer host is about 50-150 watts, and the more CPU and memory are used, the more power will be, while the power of the monitor is relatively small, about only a dozen watts.
Therefore, it is basically impossible to save power by turning off the display screen, after all, the main power consuming is the host.
Written at the end of the article
In addition, like washing machines, microwave ovens, etc., the daily standby state also consumes electricity, but the power consumption is very small and can be basically ignored.
Of course, the specific power consumption data is different from different electrical appliances, so you can refer to it.
