1000 watts or 1kw is 1 unit of electricity,
So say 100 watt on for 10 hours will be 1 unit or 16 cent
Ur pump is 1.6 cent per hour roughly

paddythefarmer

so its about 2 cents an hour how do u officaly calculate that have u to convert the watts to kw and multiply by hours and unite prize sorry for head wrecking what are most appliances rated at watts or kw

1000 watts = kw..its not a hard calculation. K= 1000 whether it be grams, euros or chickens. The ESB measures electric in kw hours..kw X time used.

No, it's not, but still understandable ! ( I'm the same myself...lol...)

Anyway, to have the answer, you multiply the price of the unit ( here 0.1668 euros ) by the wattage of your machine ( 90 Watts) , and you divide this result by 1000.

Which is : 90 x 0.1668 = 15.012, and then 15.012 / 1000 = 0.015012

So, when your machine is running, you'll pay 0.015 euros ( = between 1 and 2 cents ) of electricity per hour.

Hope there is no mistake, and hope that's help !

spot on just wondering is that calculation based in one hour how would u work out 15 minutes so its watts multiply by prize divided by 1000 where is the time in this calculation

Is that actually a serious question? There are 60 minutes in an hour...so divide by 4 to get 15 minutes usage.
