How to save electricity

So far, the largest amount of electricity in the soil is produced from non -renewable sources (burning oil, gas, stone and coal).The reserves of these fossils are not unlimited, so electricity in the foreseeable future will increase in price, unless scientists develop new free and very effective ways to use non -traditional energy sources (sun, wind, heat of the soil and treats).

Saving electricity by optimizing its consumption

First of all, you should think about whether in some cases it is possible to completely abandon the use of electrical equipment or reduce their operation time.You should pay attention to the following points:

  • If possible, use the day of the day, for which you can increase the maximum room lighting.Regular washing of windows, raised blinds, open curtains will allow you to light the lighting later, which will in total give visible savings for a month.In addition, light wallpapers or paint on walls and ceiling can turn up to 80% of sunlight, while in the room is significantly lighter than during a repair made of dark colors.
  • Saving electricity with different types of lamps
  • Land light bulbs and especially the ceiling increase the production of the device light by 10-15%.If you use a clean chandelier with an open tile, you can screw a light bulb.
  • It is advisable to buy the upper chandelier with the possibility of returning separately of the lamp.When watching only one TV program, a lamp will be enough and use full lighting when you get guests.
  • Combined lighting (sconces on the walls, floor lamps, table lamps) is not only to save home electricity, but also a way to create the necessary atmosphere in the environments of the necessary atmosphere (business, romantic, comfortable) for all occasions.With the proper use of local lighting, the general can be minimized.
  • Light should not burn in rooms that are not currently used.This habit with a certain effort is produced by all family members for several months.If there is no one left in the house or apartment, then it is advisable to turn off all energy -seeking equipment except the refrigerator.
  • Equipment in standby mode does not consume so much electricity, but if you remember how many such devices are at home, it will become clear that a significant portion of energy is almost lost.For example, a common speaker system in standby mode requires 11 W/hour.
  • Checking and replacing old wiring will not be excessive in terms of savings and fire safety.The number of tee, adapters and additions should be minimized, as their use leads to an increase in network resistance and energy loss to 30%.It is best to install some more bases when replacing the wiring.

How to save on electricity using energy saving technologies

Almost all modern companies more or less worthy that produce home or computer appliances are fighting for energy conservation.In terms of rising electrician prices, this gives them competitive advantages.

The customer of these devices should only carefully monitor new market offers.

  • Purchase of electrical equipment.It is necessary to care about the class of their power consumption, the most economical A, A+, A ++ devices, the least - class E, F, G. The difference between grades A and G can be double.
  • However, buying a energy saving device is only half the issue.It still needs to be operated correctly.So a bag trapped in a vacuum broom leads to a 40% loss of electricity, approximately the same refrigerator view, which inside is covered with a layer of snow and ice.
  • Insulation of an apartment or house (replacing windows with metal -plastic, foam walls or mineral insulation, doors compression, balcony polishing and loggia) will better hold heat.As a result, before the start of the heating season or with insufficient warm batteries, powerful electrical heater can be used less or used to create a comfortable air temperature more profitable in heating.
  • The easiest way to save electricity is to replace incandescent bulbs with energy -saving ones.This will require a purchase with a time of much more expensive lamps (fluorescent energy or LEDs), but their installation pays quite quickly, sometimes within a year.Lighting "economy" consumes 5 times less than the common "lamp" lamp, and LED - more than 8 times.At the same time, economical lamps serve ten times longer.

How to save electricity at home, accurately considering its consumption

Assistant in this issue may be devices that will provide visual information about the energy consumed and the possibility of its more rational use.

  • Electronic meter with two or three-arifor of E/energy.Its installation will allow to divide the energy consumed during the day and at night.The night tariff is about 30%lower.This is due to the need to download electrical networks during peak hours of stress and transfer a portion of consumption to a more "smooth" time.Therefore, it is profitable for the consumer that has such a counter at a later time to use cost -cost equipment (boiler, washing machine, iron, dishwasher, bread button, pressure pots), which can be programmed for use in certain hours.The counter should be legalized at the electricity-enhancement company.
  • Light recorder (dimmer).This device is installed instead of the switch and makes it possible to adjust the light of the lamp.The same lamp can use a winter to serve for the overall lighting of the room, to read, watch a TV or as a night light.There are also remote -controlled light regulators or the possibility of switching from several points.The advantage of pallor is that they extend the life of the lamps, but they cannot be used with all types of lighting equipment.
  • Impulse staff.This allows you to control the lighting from different places of the house, it is appropriate to use when turning off all the lighting in the room by pressing a button.
  • Movement sensors.They are installed in residential and office premises as well as in yards.Turn on and off the light in the presence or absence of movement.
  • Wattmeter Family.It makes it possible to measure the power of consumption of each device, frequency and voltage in the grid.By using this information, you can take measures to save electricity.

How to save electricity in the house

The most powerful home appliances are a refrigerator and electric stove.Often people have used the same refrigerator for more than 10 years.At the same time, technology has moved forward during this time as the new refrigerator consumes as much energy as possible, so the person, saving the purchase of a new device, is constantly lost to pay for the bills.

  • The refrigerator should not be installed near the tiles or heating batteries, in the corners and poorly ventilated niches - this will lead to overheating and more frequent involvement.For the same reason, it is not recommended to put a plate and pot with hot products inside the refrigerator, as well as very frequent or for a long time that opens the door.To save money, it is also best to place the device to cool the average way and lift it regularly and clean it from snow and ice.
  • There is not every home in every home, but where it is, the leadership of the cost of electricians behind it.But there is an opportunity here to save energy.The size of the dishes in which the food is prepared should not be less than the burner used, the end should be equal.A closed dish with a lid is prepared 20-30% faster.After boiling water, the combustion temperature is best transferred to a low temperature regime - this will not affect the process of preparing the dish, but will reduce the consumption of/energy.
  • The washing machine works the most durable in the regulatory load shown in the instructions.Incomplete overload or loading, as well as unjustified use of the preliminary washing function, increases the consumption of electricians from 10 to 30%.
  • The electrician requires regular cleaning of the ladder.Also, do not boil the full boiler for the future, enough water for creating a cup of tea.
  • Turn on the air conditioned only with tightly closed windows and doors so as not to cool the road, select the device according to the technical characteristics corresponding to the room to be cool.There are models of converter air conditioners with 50%reduced electrician.

This is just a part of the tips on how to save electricity.In more detail, they can be revealed in other section items.However, we must not forget that saving resources is not only care for their portfolio, but also preserving the environment for children and grandchildren.

EVEROKO 100 WATT GENERATURE with electricity means that it burns 33 liters of oil, or 48 kilograms of coal, or 35 cubic meters of natural gas.If we add to this, the problem of pollution of nature from harmful emissions, it becomes clear that the use and saving of electricity is not only the private question of each consumer, but also the global problem of all humanity.
