Formula explanation

How this calculator works

Core formula

daily kWh = (watts / 1000) * hours; cost = kWh * rate

The calculator converts appliance wattage into daily energy use, then applies your electricity rate to estimate recurring cost over longer time periods.

  • The model assumes the appliance draws the same power whenever it is on.
  • Bills can differ if tariffs change by time of day or include fixed charges.
