Title: "Warning: Plug is a small thing! Doubling the electricity bill is not a dream》
With the development of society, our lives are inseparable from the use of electrical appliances. TV, refrigerator, washing machine, air conditioning...... All kinds of electrical appliances make our lives more convenient and comfortable. However, what followed was an increase in electricity bills, especially after the meter reader reminded us that some small plug problems in the original home could lead to a doubling of electricity bills! Below, let me tell you some plug tips for common appliances in your home so that your electricity bill doesn't soar!
Chapter 1: The Plug Story of the TV
When I was a child, my TV was in the living room, and the whole family would gather around the TV every night to watch a show. However, once I found that the TV plug was not pulled out all the year round, and even when the TV was turned off, the plug was still plugged into the socket. At the time, it didn't seem like a big deal, until one time, I overheard a friend say that even if an appliance is turned off, as long as the plug is on the socket, it will consume a certain amount of electricity. So, I decided to do a little experiment and unplug the TV, and a month later, I found that the electricity bill had been reduced a lot! I was amazed by this little plug problem.
Chapter 2: Refrigerator Plug Vignette
A refrigerator is one of the must-have appliances in your home to keep food fresh and refrigerated. However, you know what? The plug of the refrigerator is also a hidden electricity bill killer! Once, the plug of my refrigerator was broken and it couldn't power off properly. Although the refrigerator door is closed all year round, the plug stays on the outlet, resulting in unnecessary energy waste. So, I quickly found a plug repairer and repaired the plug. Since then, I've made it a habit to unplug the fridge every time I finish using it to save money on my electricity bill.
Chapter 3: The Little Mystery of the Plug of the Washing Machine
The washing machine is an assistant in our life, which can help us solve the problem of cleaning clothes. However, have you ever paid attention to the plug of your washing machine? Once, my washing machine had a small fault and needed to be taken apart for repair. During the overhaul, I found that the plug of the washing machine was not unplugged for a long time, and even if the washing machine was not in working condition, the plug was still plugged into the socket. This made me realize that even if an appliance is not working, as long as the plug is on the socket, it will consume electricity. So, I immediately unplugged the washing machine, and from then on, I would unplug the washing machine every time I used it so as not to waste electricity.
Chapter 4: The Little Secret of the Plug of the Air Conditioner
Summer is coming, and the air conditioner has become our savior, bringing us coolness. However, you know what? The plug of the air conditioner can also become our "electricity bill killer"! Once, my air conditioner had a minor malfunction and needed to be repaired. During the repair process, I found that the plug of the air conditioner was not unplugged for a long time, and even if the air conditioner was not in working condition, the plug was still plugged into the socket. This surprised me, it turns out that the plug of the air conditioner is also a potential source of waste on electricity bills! So, I immediately unplugged the air conditioner and developed the habit of unplugging the air conditioner every time I used it.
