Method and assumptions

Calculate kilowatt-hours and estimated cost from appliance wattage, daily use, days, quantity, and an editable price per kWh. It does not reproduce KEPCO tiered billing, adjustments, discounts, taxes, or the final household bill.

How to use it

  1. Enter wattage from the appliance label.
  2. Add daily hours, days, quantity, and price per kWh.
  3. Review total kWh and estimated running cost.

When it helps

  • Comparing air-conditioner schedules
  • Estimating a new appliance's monthly use
  • Checking potential standby-power savings

How to verify the result

Check input units and reference dates first. For an important decision, compare the result with an official source or original document. A rounded display can differ slightly from the underlying value.

Frequently asked questions

How are kWh calculated?

Multiply watts by running hours and quantity, then divide by 1,000.

Why can the utility bill differ?

Household bills can include tiers, seasonal rules, adjustments, VAT, funds, and discounts.

Is appliance wattage constant?

Not always. Inverter and thermostat-controlled devices vary their draw, so the result is an estimate.
