How do I calculate electricity cost per appliance?

To calculate electricity cost per appliance: 1) Find appliance wattage (usually on label), 2) Multiply by hours used daily, 3) Multiply by 30 for monthly usage, 4) Divide by 1000 to convert to kWh, 5) Multiply by your electricity rate ($/kWh). Formula: (Watts × Hours × 30 ÷ 1000) × Rate = Monthly Cost.

What appliances use the most electricity?

Typically: 1) HVAC systems (40-50% of bill), 2) Water heaters (14-18%), 3) Refrigerators (8-12%), 4) Dryers (5-8%), 5) Lighting (5-10%), 6) Ovens/Ranges (3-5%), 7) Televisions/Electronics (2-5%). However, usage patterns significantly impact actual consumption.
