Option A power-and-hours savings calculator

Measured power differences and justified operating-hour estimates determine this isolated lighting saving.

S=N×(Wb−Wr)×h1000S = \frac{N \times \left(W_{b} - W_{r}\right) \times h}{1000}

Worked example

Given

  • NN = 240 unit
  • WbW_{b} = 72 W/unit
  • WrW_{r} = 31 W/unit
  • hh = 3,200 h/yr
S=240×(72−31)×32001000=31,488S = \frac{240 \times \left(72 - 31\right) \times 3200}{1000} = 31{,}488
