16. Power usage Alert and Maximum loading
Power usage alert
Appliances use varying amounts of power to operate
depending on its function and energy efficiency. This
amount is written as W or kW and can be found on a
label on the appliance.
As appliances age, their power consumption can go up
quite considerably, thereby increasing the cost of
operating it. By setting the power usage alert, this unit
can alert you if the appliance is using more electricity
than it should and help you consider if there's a need to
replace it with an appliance.
that is more energy efficient.
17. Maximum loading
This safety feature is designed to protect you. Since
current should be constant, a sudden jump in current
(amps) indicates possible overloading which may be a
result of appliance malfunction, power surge (e.g., from
lightning) etc. The sensor will cut off power to the
appliance to minimise the risk of short circuiting, damage
to the appliance and even fire. The setting for maximum
load varies across countries.
