What to know about electricity unit consumption by 1.5 ton AC in an hour?

I am use haier 1.5 ton ac. Can anyone tell me how many units will it consume in an hour? Thanks in advance

In non technical terms, for an approximate idea.

Assuming AC is run at 26C and is working efficiently.

Maximum 1.5-2.0 units per hour when the AC is cooling the room to reach its desired temperature.

Around 0.75-1.25 units per hour when the AC has reached its desired temperature and is maintaining room temperature.

This calculation is for 1.5 ton Inverter AC and is an approximate figure for non technical people.

To calculate actual figures, you need tool (clamp meter) to measure ac current and voltage and then multiple it together and then divide by 1000, to reach at per hour unit consumption.

Like now, my Voltage is 230v and and ac current consumption is 6A. So (230v x 6A) ÷ 1000 = 1.38 unit per hour consumption.

I do not have the inverter AC. How to calculate for the normal one? The IBS guy told me that the normal one usually consume 9-10 units per hour (according to me this is some beyond expectation). I usually runs my AC between 20-23. Voltage in my area is normal. Can u plz tell me a roughly idea of per hour units?

1.5 - 2 units per hour.

That guy may be talking about amperes.

Amperes will be charged seprately in bill?

It will take around 1.5-2.0 units maximum per hour, on 1.5 ton non Inverter AC.

No. Unit calculation includes Ampere, so you are not separately charged for it.

On bill, you are charged on unit bases.

Ok thank u so much sir.
