Do you know how to calculate the operating cost of any electrical appliance?
The amount of electricity you use is measured in and priced by kwh, when you pay for a kilowatt-hour of electricity, you are paying for 1000 watts of electricity used continuously for one hour.
You can calculate the operating cost of any electrical appliance by checking its voltage & using these formulas:
Wattage x hours used / 1000 = kwh
Kwh x cost per kwh = operating cost.
