How much that will be to install and will the electricity will be cheaper. TS have 4 AC, takut macam overload?

my banglo.

pay 3k to upgrade

4 AC still less than 60A (single phase max)

I want to install 3 phase also. Ready for electric vehicle.

not incl. dryer, 2 x fridge, 2 TV (1 x75 inch TV guy ) , plus other house hold. My worry when dryer run with all AC concurrently. That day sudah kena main main switch burnt

And now another for my son hybrid car... when he at my house.

I'm on 3P with 5 AC, 2 fridge, 1 washing machine & 7 computers running 24*7. Bill comes to RM 600 monthly.

if 3 phase make sure the 4 A/C distributed among the 3 ; not just on single-phase... else its unbalanced....

even 4 ac on single phase no issue.. just make sure its DIRECT to MCB.. not to the existing wall switch/plug ... only use wall switch for 1hp and below...

Noted

You mean AC direct from MCB?

Single phase max load can be up to 14kw.

if let say even u use 4 2hp AC that's only 6.4kw load. then also depend on how you use your appliances.

normal 1hp ac is only 2-3amps (check the label at the side of your ac)

you can have many many aircon running at the same time.

My place kenot 1 phase, AC already 8 most are 1.5 or 2 HP. Water heater also have 5 ady

Fridge don't take much power though.... less than 1kW for 2

lel.......as if you on everything at the same time.

when mcb trip you know you over load a circuit la

Electricity bill got nothing to do whether 3 phase or 1 phase

Of course if u think u got 3 phase then full blast your ac 24 7 then different story lah

What I meant was my place we added 3 phase before we moved in. Kenot 1 phase due to too much stuff

yes.. dedicated miniature circuit breaker... dont loop to other equipment

tnb will always recommend 3phase.. they earn more.. remember each phase will have its own meter ; and it will add up these 3 for u to get ur bill...

hence its very difficult to reach the lowest tier unlike on single phase

its something you buy RM1mil insurance ; you pay for the high premium.. but will you ever hit your RM1mil hospitalization cost? maybe..or maybe not

similar.. will you max out your single phase? maybe or maybe not...

Theoretically, you could bypass the tnb fuse, and won’t ever reach the max. Unless you draw so much that you blow the distribution fuse. But to do that you either making a reactor or something lol
