Would there be someone tapped into my electricity bill? I am confused.

I am concerned about the hike in my electricity bills over the past two months. My electricity bill had gone up with no discernible change in the use of appliances. I stay alone,I am now return home at 12.30 am (vs 9 pm before), and leave at 10 am (vs 9.30 am before) almost daily. I am aware that some have encountered similar experiences. Is this situation normal, and why? Did I miss any news or changes in policy?

QUOTE(BL98 @ May 21 2024, 06:25 PM) Not I didn't; my habit of using all the appliances is still the same. That makes me curious and concerned. If the policy of removing the subsidy causes all these, then I am perfectly fine with it. |

QUOTE(ozak @ May 22 2024, 12:57 PM) If you hardly sleep with aircon ON, that usage cost is high for a single person. I set my temperature at 25. Appliances I use daily are a fridge (24 hours), laptop (5 hours max), a hair dryer (less than 5 mins), water heater (15 mins)… that's all I can think of, and have been the same since I moved in, meaning seven years ago, and until these two months I saw the bill goes up, and that concerned me. If it's because we no longer enjoy the subsidy, I'm perfectly fine. Just wanna fix issue before it's too late, if really there is any.Change temp is not the problem But at what temp and what mode you run the aircon. That can affect the bill cost. The detail that you think is not matter is the matter. What else electrical appliances usage everyday? |

QUOTE(ozak @ May 22 2024, 01:31 PM) What is your bill cost before this hike? Gradually up or sudden hike? The hike was sudden, having been around RM50-60 since seven years ago. Max will be RM80 like that, but only when my family visits. There might be a fridge or an aircon. These 2 can cause sudden high consumption. You can do some test to see the meter record. OFF all the aplicences. Not even 1 thing is running. Record the meter number. Wait an hr. Then record the meter again. Compare before and after the number. That can know anything is running or not. For checking the high consumption like aircon, record the meter before ON the aircon, run the aircon as usual for 8hr sleep. After 8hr, record the usage and minus the record before. And you get the usage kWh. If you don’t no is it high or low usage, post it here all the record detail and let people here check for you. I will do what you have advised. I believe it helps. Cheers. |
