if its 40 units then you consume 1200 units per month. that's too much. ideally you should actually be looking at no more than 10+ units for everything non-ac and about 10-15 units for the aircons. that translates into 600-750 units per month and is still on the high side but approx. what you used before as well. from you info your bill is almost 750 RM which means you used almost 1500 units (kWh).
1500 per month = 50 units per day. that is almost 2x what you should be looking at. what was the number for yesterday? |

QUOTE(ajai@jakes @ Jul 8 2015, 05:17 PM) my vacuum is 2800 watt. usage every 2 days for about 90 minutes. but have to use due to having small kids who likes to spill food and having a cat with thick and long fur. Your energy cost for vacuum alone is RM34 (GST + KWTBB included) per month. That's 50% of Ozak's 1 month TNB bill. |

That's the average monthly bill for me but last month crept to RM50 because of the aircon usage during the nights for a few hours a day due to the fact that it has been blardee hot of late in recent months and the nights are also warm too.
Speaking of something.. Does ajai@jakes have a habit of leaving the switches on even though appliances are off? Could also be one of the causes.

QUOTE(ajai@jakes @ Jul 7 2015, 12:31 PM) EDITED TO ADD WATER HEATER Did you never turn off the switch after taken bath? Hi guys, Need so input on electricity consumption. I just got my TNB bill and it costs me RM710.40 from 15 May to 15 June. What did I use that could make my bill go so high? Previously, in my old condo, my average bill was RM350. Back ground information. I just moved to alam impian in April It is a 2 story intermediate. Major electrical items:- York inverter aircond 1hp x 3 sets = I only use 2 air conditioners from 10pm to 8am (10hours) and from 2pm to 4pm(2 hours) at temp 26c at the lowest fan. Acson normal aircond 1hp x 2 sets = hardly use Acson normal aircond 2hp 1 set = hardly use Grundfos water pump 1.5hp = 1 set which I keep on 24 hours 7 days a week Electrolux clothes dryer = +/-6 hours a week Rubine brand built in oven which I use +/-5 hours a week Rubine brand hood which I use everyday for +/-3 hours a day Deep oil fryer (no brand) which I use +/- 1 hour a day LCD 50 inch tv which is kept on from 8am to 10pm (14 hours) everyday (kids) KDK ceiling fan I use 1 which is kept on from 8am to 11pm (15 hours) Toshiba 700liter inverter fridge FORGOT TO ADD:- 1 STORAGE WATER HEATER 35 LITERS 1 STORAGE WATER HEATER 50 LITERS BOTH USED SPARINGLY Those I think are the major electrical items which I use daily. As for the lights in the house, I use 18watt LED downlights for the whole house. Please help. I need to figure out what is causing such a high electricity bill. Ajai@jakes[I] Even on day time? Water storage tank from 35L & 50L the input watt is around 2800w + 3000L is = 4 units 1.5Hp Aircon runs on day time. 5.8kw x 5 hrs daily good enough to cover your 1hp Aircon for switch on 24hrs usage. 5.8kw x 5 hrs = 29kwh x 30 days just water storage only = 870kwh, please take note just the water storage tank some time never turn off only. |

ok guys..
this is my electrical consumption Day 1 7am - 4483kwh 7pm - 4490kwh Day 2 7am - 4516kwh 7pm - 4523kwh Day 3 7am - 4549kwh From the above, my usage on: Day 1 - 7pm 4490kwh to Day 2 - 7am is 4516kwh is 26kwh. Day 2 - 7pm 4523kwh to Day 3 - 7am is 4529kwh is 26kwh. Big ticket items used between 7pm to 7am where I used up 26kwh worth of electricity are:- 2 units of inverter 1 hp air cond from 10pm to 7am 2800watt vacuum for 30 minutes LCD 50 inch Samsung tv for 3 hours 500 watt grundfos water pump for 10 minutes 50 liter joven storage water heater for 10 minutes No other big ticket items used. Does all these usage justify the 26kwh? |

Is 800watt x 2 x 9 = 14,400 Watt Hour. round up to 15Kwh.this is my electrical consumption Day 1 7am - 4483kwh 7pm - 4490kwh Day 2 7am - 4516kwh 7pm - 4523kwh Day 3 7am - 4549kwh From the above, my usage on: Day 1 - 7pm 4490kwh to Day 2 - 7am is 4516kwh is 26kwh.

QUOTE(ajai@jakes @ Jul 9 2015, 10:33 AM) yup. Day time is about 7kwh. Just double confirm with TNB, they charge you doubleTotal usage for 24 hours is 26kwh + 7kwh = 33kwh a day for a month would be 33kwh x 30 days = 990kwh tnb bill should be approx.: rm445 a month This post has been edited by kimsim: Jul 9 2015, 10:38 AM |

You may want to trip the remaining mcb to make sure no one stealing your house electric. If nothing seem to solve this, can request tnb to check the meter or change to a new meter. |

QUOTE(weikee @ Jul 7 2015, 05:05 PM) The heat build up in the room during day time will need some energy to cool it down. For me, I have a ventilation fan that usually switch it on to suck the cooler air from outside to my room, than to the roof. This way I cool the roof, and also cool the room before switching on the AC. This is a cool (heh) idea! Mind sharing how you do it? Where does the ventilation fan vent to? The space between the roof and ceiling? If rainy season, I just switch on the open up the windows, Vent + Fan, this will be very cooling. |
