To calculate the operating cost, you need to know the electricity rate in your area. Once you have that information, you can use the formulas below:
Operating cost = (Watts / 1000) x Hours of use x Electricity rate
For the 120V 1500W appliance: Operating cost = (1500 / 1000) x Hours of use x Electricity rate
For the 240V 1000W appliance: Operating cost = (1000 / 1000) x Hours of use x Electricity rate
If the transformer uses 5 watts per hour you need to know what you are paying per 1000 watts from your power company. If you pay lets say $3.00 for 1000 watts then when your transformer burns 1000 watts it cost you $3.00 your cost will be $3.00 for 200 hours run time.
To calculate the cost of operating a 1000-watt heater for 24 hours, first convert the wattage to kilowatts by dividing by 1000 (1000 watts = 1 kilowatt). So, the heater consumes 1 kWh per hour. Multiply this by 24 hours to get 24 kWh. With electricity costing 10 cents per kWh, the total cost for operating the heater for 24 hours would be $2.40 (24 kWh x $0.10/kWh).
a 1500 w heater consumes 1.5 kW, and used for 1 hour it uses 1.5 kWh of energy, which costs 1.5 x 9.1 cents, that is 13.65 cents.
1500 watts... Average electric bill is $0.98/ killowatt hour (1000 watts an hour) So it wil cost around $1.50- $2.00/ Hour to operate
Look at kilowatt hours on your bill. Each of those is 1000 watts per hour.
If the transformer uses 5 watts per hour you need to know what you are paying per 1000 watts from your power company. If you pay lets say $3.00 for 1000 watts then when your transformer burns 1000 watts it cost you $3.00 your cost will be $3.00 for 200 hours run time.
