So, how much power do your appliances use? The table below shows approximate power requirements of some common appliances. However, the actual power consumption of your appliances may vary considerably from these figures. Check the power tag, or better yet, measure the ampere draw with a multimeter. Multiply the hours used on the average day for each appliance by the
Watts
per hour listed below. This will give you the Watt-hours consumed per day, which can then be plugged in to your load evaluation form. The form will load in a separate window and can be printed so that you can refer back to this page. Once you complete the form, mail it to us at AC Solar, Inc., PO Box 128, Florence, CO 81226 and we'll contact you.
Remember, some items are used for only a fraction of an hour per day. A 300 Watt item used for 5 minutes per day will only consume 25 Watt-hours per day.
