    Trying to find cost by watts
    hi names gavin silly question maybe but I'm trying to find the cost of my office air conditioner I have been doing it for work experience and have to find out how much everything is costing in the office by using the sum kwh x time on a day x current kwh price and I'm using energy plugs which tell me exactly how much each item is using but the air conditioner doesn't plug in

    phase ~/n
    volts 220/230
    hz 60/50
    ip code ip 20
    input (in) 0.07 kw

    these are the details on the unit I have been using the above input amount of watts but my amount just seems to cheap to be right help would be appreciated thanks

    Please check the tag on the unit...
    0.07 kW equals 70 watts... this doesn't look reasonable.
    Also, is this a window unit? Is it the condensing unit outside?
    Split system?
    If this was a split system, that is a condensing unit outside and a cassette inside, then the large load is outside and usually the exterior unit supplies the interior.

    Yes, check the roof mounted unit for it's rating...
