How to Reducing Electricity Usage
Electricity is one of primary needed of human being in this time; most of equipment in the world uses electricity .Now Indonesia is facing a serious problem because the over usage of electricity and the capacity of electricity is deficiency.The needs of electricity is increase every year, in this situation reduce usage of electricity is very important. Most highest electricity usage time is between 5 pm to 10 pm , this time is the best time for reduce or avoid the usage of heavy electricity consuming equipments like water heater, computer, refrigerator and etc. There are several steps involved in reducing electricity usage.
First, use the saver energy lamp. Lamp is absorbing more electricity power than other equipment; light has longer usage than other equipment, especially for incandescent lamp. Many people still using incandescent lamp at their house, particularly for villager. They use incandescent lamp because is cheaper than the saver energy lamp like Phillips lamp for example, maybe it is more expensive than incandescent lamp, but the saver energy lamp have longer usage lifetime than incandescent, and it is brighter than incandescent lamp. But actually incandescent lamps have bigger power consumed than other lamp, and 19% of electricity is absorbing by lamp.
“Incandescent lamps are marketed in various forms and are available for voltage (voltage) of work that range from 1.25 to 300 volts of electricity required volt. Incandescent lamp to produce a bright light is bigger than any other artificial light sources like fluorescent lamps and diode light, then gradually in some countries began to be restricted circulation of incandescent lamps” (1)
Second, switch off all the electricity equipment when not in use. Many people forget for switch off the
