5. Energy Consumption What is energy consumption? Energy consumption  is the total amount of energy required for a given process and is measured in kilowatt hours (kWh). This includes the use of electricity, gas, diesel, oil, and biomass. There are various factors that directly influence energy consumption such as: The activity that takes place in the home or business. The number of people in a household or workers. The consumption habits of each person. The energy performance of household appliances. MZCET/EEE/VII Sem /OCH353_ET/Unit 1 5 1.3

7. Difference between contracted power and energy consumption These terms are closely related but should not be confused. The contracted power is the amount of kilowatts signed up for that are supplied to a home, office, or factory, and it must be enough to support all the electrical appliances used on the property. If this is not the case, when several electrical appliances are connected at the same time, the circuit breakers will trip. Meanwhile, energy consumption is the amount of energy needed in a house to switch on electrical appliances. MZCET/EEE/VII Sem /OCH353_ET/Unit 1 7
