 Yesterday we discuss about the

three electrical basic quantities,

right?
 What are those electrical basic
quantities?
 Current
voltage
and resistance.
I’m going to flash on the screen
words related to those basic
electrical quantities.
You are going to identify which
electrical basic quantities is being
describe/characterize by the
word.
Ready?
 Watts
Power
 ____= I x V
Power
 Volt
Voltage
 Ohms Resistance
 ____= I x R Voltage
Ω Ohms
 ____= V/R Current
I = current
Do you have still questions?
If none then let’s proceed to
our next topic.
Objectives:
 Identify Formula used in solving
Electricity Consumption.
 Solve problems related to
electrical consumption.
 Can you Identify what are these?

 Electric meter
What is the use of an electric meter?
To measure electricity use by
consumers for a certain period of
time
 Give the meaning of the
following:
 Kilowatt-hour
The amount of energy
consumed by one kilowatt load
over the period of one hour.
 Electric meter or energy meter
 is a device that measures the
amount of electric energy
consumed by a residence,
business, or an electrically
powered device.
 Appliance
 Gadgets, electronic devices which
consume/use electricity in order to
operate.
 Electricity/electrical energy

 Energy use by electronic devices in

order for them to operate/function.
 Types of Electric meter
 Dial Type/Electromechanical Induction –
works with the principle of conversion of
electric energy into mechanical energy.
 Electronic Energy meter
 Electronic Energy Meter is based on
Digital Micro Technology (DMT).
 Functions are controlled by a specially
designed IC called ASIC (Application
Specified Integrated Circuit).
 How to compute for energy
consumption:
E= Power x time
Where: E = electrical energy in watts
P = power in watts
t = seconds (hr.)
conversion : 1000 watts = 1Kw
unit used = Kwhr
 Sample problem.
 A laptop uses a 75 W adapter when it
is plugged in
 Calculate how much it would cost to
operate the laptop if it is used for 3
hours every day, for a Month if the
average electrical cost is 10.00/Kwhr.
 Given:

P = 75w
T = 3 hrs/day
E = ? in a month
10.00/Kwhr-electrical cost
 Procedure:
 Calculate total number of hours used

 30 days x 3 hrs/day = 90 hrs

 Convert power to kW (1 kW = 1000 W)

 75 W = 0.075 kW

 How much energy in total?

 0.075 kW x 90 hrs = 6.75 kW•h

 Cost: 6.75 kW•h x 10 kW•h = Php 67.5

APPLICATION/Computation
 Complete the table below show your
solution at the bottom of the table.
 Elesterio Family has the following
daily electricity profile, calculate for
their monthly bill if the Electricity
provider set an average of 10.00 per
kilowatt hour? Complete the following
table with the computation at the
bottom. The first row is done for you.

 ANSWER
 Electric Fan:
 = 60/1000 = .06

 = .06 x 12 = .72

 = .72 x 30 = 21.6

 = 21.6 x 10 = 216.00
 Television:

= 120/1000 = .12
= .12 x 15 = 1.8

= 1.8 x 30 = 54

= 54 x 10 = 540.00
 Computer

= 120/1000 = .12
= .12 x 15 = 1.8

= 1.8 x 30 = 54

= 54 x 10 = 540.00
 Refrigerator:

= 110/1000 = .11
= .11 x 24 = 2.64

= 2,64 x 30 = 79.2

= 79.2 x10 = 792.00

 III.CONCLUSION:
In solving for Electrical energy
use at home, we need to consider
 the wattage of our appliances

the number of hours they are

used and
the average cost per kilowatts
determine by power producers.
 Assignment/DO NOT
FORGET...
Calculate your energy
consumption at home for one
month and pass it tomorrow.
