How to save power

The largest electricity on the planet has been produced by non-renewable sources of energy (combusted oil, natural gas, stone and brown coal).The reserves of these fossils are not infinite, so electricity will rise in the foreseeable future unless scientists develop new cheap and efficient ways to leverage the potential of non-traditional energy sources (sun, wind, earth's heat, earth and snacks).

Save power by optimizing its consumption

First, you should consider whether it is possible to give up the use of an appliance completely or reduce its operating time in certain situations.The following points you need to pay attention to:

  • If possible, use daylight days to increase maximum lighting in the room.Regularly cleaning windows, raised blinds, and open curtains will allow you to turn on the lighting later, which will save a month in total.Additionally, light wallpaper or paint on the walls and ceilings can return up to 80% of the sunshine, while in the room it is a little lighter than when repaired in dark colors.
    • Save power with different types of lamps
  • Floor bulbs, especially ceilings, increase the light output of the equipment by 10-15%.If you use a clean chandelier with an open Plafon, you can twist the bulb.
  • It is recommended to buy a chandelier and may turn some of the bulbs separately.When watching TV shows alone, a light is enough, using full lighting when receiving guests.
  • Combined lighting (siding lights on the walls, floor lights, desk lights) not only save electricity in the home, but also is a way to create the necessary atmosphere in all occasions (commercial, romantic, comfortable).The general can be minimized by proper use of local lighting.
  • Light should not burn in a room that is currently unused.All family members have developed a habit of working hard over the past few months.If there is no one in the house or apartment, it is recommended to turn off all power equipment except the refrigerator.
  • Devices in backup mode don’t consume much electricity, but if you remember how much of these devices are in your house, it’s obvious that almost a considerable portion of the energy is wasted.For example, a normal speaker system in standby mode in standby mode requires 11 W/hour.
  • When it comes to savings and fire safety, checking and replacing old wiring will not be redundant.The number of TEEs, adapters and extensions should be minimized as their use results in an increase in network resistance and energy losses to 30%.When replacing wiring, it is best to install more sockets.

How to use energy-saving technology to save power

Almost more or less modern companies that produce homes or computer equipment are fighting for energy conservation.This gives them a competitive advantage under the conditions of rising prices of electricians.

Consumers of these devices simply need to carefully monitor new market quotes.

  • Buy electrical appliances.It is necessary to be interested in the categories of their energy consumption, which are Class A, A+, A++, least - E, F, G-class most economical equipment.The difference between Class A and Class G can be twice as high.
  • However, the acquisition of energy-saving equipment is only half the case.It still needs to be done correctly.So, a clogged bag in the vacuum cleaner results in a 40% loss of power, roughly the same picture as the refrigerator, covered in a layer of snow and ice.
  • The insulation of an apartment or house (replaces windows with metal plastic, walls with foam or mineral insulation on the walls, door compaction, balcony and loggia glass) will better retain heat.As a result, powerful electric heaters can use less or be used to create a comfortable, higher temperature heating air conditioner before heating season begins or before underused batteries.
  • The easiest way to save electricity is to replace the incandescent bulb with an energy-saving bulb.This will require a one-time purchase of more expensive lamps (energy saving fluorescence or LEDs), but their installation will be rewarded soon, sometimes even within a year.The glowing "economic" consumes 5 times less than the usual "Ilyich lights" and LEDs - more than 8 times less.At the same time, the service time of economic lamps is ten times longer.

How to save electricity at home and consider its consumption accurately

The assistant to this problem might be a device that will provide visual information about the possibility of energy consumption and its more reasonable use.

  • Two or three start electronic instruments of E/Energy.Installing it will allow splitting the energy consumed during the day and at night.Nighttime tariffs were reduced by about 30%.This is due to the need to unload the grid within peak pressure hours and transfer a portion of the consumption to a more "calm" time.Therefore, for consumers who have such counters in the future, it is beneficial to consumers who use power cost equipment (boilers, washing machines, iron, dishwasher, bread pots, pressure cookers) that can be used within certain hours.Counters must be legalized in the power supply supported by the company.
  • Light - Regulator (dimmer).The device has been installed instead of the switch and can adjust the brightness of the light of the lamp.The same light can be used to illuminate the room, read, watch TV or like a night light.There is also the possibility of optical regulators with remote control or switching from several points.The advantage of dimmers is that they extend the life of the lamp but cannot be used with all types of lighting equipment.
  • Impulsive relay.It allows you to control lighting in different places in the house, which is convenient to use when you press a button to turn off all lighting in the room.
  • Motion sensor.They are installed in residential and office spaces as well as in yards.Turn light on and off in the presence or absence of motion.
  • Family plan.The power consumed by each device, frequency and voltage in the network can be measured.Using this information, you can take steps to save power.

How to save electricity at home

The most powerful equipment in the house is the refrigerator and electric stove.People often use the same refrigerator for more than 10 years.Meanwhile, the technology has advanced so far that the new refrigerator consumes half of its energy, so the person saves the person who buys new equipment to keep losing money to pay the bill.

  • The refrigerator should not be installed near the board or heating battery, poor ventilation angles and walls will cause overheating and more frequent inclusion.For the same reason, it is not recommended to keep a plate and flower pot with hot products in the refrigerator and open the door too often or for a long time.To save money, it is best to place the equipment in cooling average mode and defrost regularly and remove from snow and ice.
  • Not every house in every house, but where it is, is the leader of electrician costs.But there are opportunities to save energy here.The size of the dish that prepares the food should not be smaller than the burner used, and the bottom should be even.Prepare 20-30% faster with a lid.After boiling water, it is best to transfer the combustion temperature to a low temperature state - this will not affect the process of preparing the plate, but will reduce the E/energy consumption.
  • The washing machine operates most stably under the regulatory load indicated in the instructions.Overload or incomplete loads and unreasonable use of preliminary washing functions increase the consumption of electricians from 10% to 30%.
  • Electricians need to clean the scale regularly.Also, don't boil the whole kettle for the future, enough to make a cup of tea.
  • Use only tightly closed windows and doors to open the air conditioner to avoid cooling the streets, please select equipment according to the technical characteristics of the rooms you need to cool.There are some converter air conditioners models, electricians have reduced their power by 50%.

This is just part of the tips on how to save power.In more detail, they can be found in other articles in this section.However, we should not forget that saving resources not only care about their own wallets, but also preserve the environment for children and grandchildren.

Every 100 watts of electricity per 100 watts means burning 33 liters of oil, or 48 kilograms of coal, or 35 cubic meters of natural gas.If we add the natural pollution problem of harmful emissions to this point, it is clear that the use and savings of electricity are not only a private problem for every consumer, but also a global problem for all mankind.
