Appliance electricity cost

See how a high-use appliance estimate adds up, then enter your appliance and tariff. All calculations stay in this browser.

The preloaded 2,000 W, six-hours-a-day example is illustrative only: at A$0.34/kWh it estimates A$122.40 over 30 days. It is not a typical-use claim, bill reading or savings estimate. A label's rated watts may differ from actual average power draw; check your bill and account separately for supply charges, time-of-use pricing and solar exports.

Calculate your running cost

The example estimate is loading…

Formula: watts ÷ 1,000 × hours × days × tariff. The yearly figure assumes the same daily use on 365 days.

Check actual power draw

A plug-in electricity meter can help measure a suitable appliance at the wall. Check its Australian plug, load rating and safety certification before buying. Never put a high-load appliance on a meter that is not rated for it.

Frequently asked questions

How is the estimated electricity cost calculated?

The calculator estimates energy as watts multiplied by hours and days, divided by 1,000, then multiplies the kWh result by the tariff you enter.

Is the example a typical bill or live tariff?

No. It is an illustrative calculation using the values shown. Replace them with your appliance use and electricity rate.
