To calculate the number of units consumed by a 1.5-ton inverter AC in 12 hours at a thermostat setting of 24 degrees Celsius, you need to know the power consumption of the AC in watts.
Generally, the power consumption of an AC is mentioned on its nameplate or in the user manual. For a 1.5-ton inverter AC, the power consumption typically ranges between 1200 watts to 1800 watts.
Let's assume the power consumption of your 1.5-ton inverter AC is 1500 watts (1.5 kW).
Now, to calculate the units consumed:
Find the total energy consumed in kilowatt-hours (kWh) in 12 hours: Energy (kWh) = Power (kW) x Time (hours) Energy (kWh) = 1.5 kW x 12 hours Energy (kWh) = 18 kWh
To convert the energy in kilowatt-hours to units, divide by the electricity board's unit conversion factor (usually 1 kWh = 1 unit): Units consumed = 18 kWh รท 1 Units consumed = 18 units
So, the 1.5-ton inverter AC at 24 degrees Celsius thermostat setting will consume approximately 18 units of electricity in 12 hours. Keep in mind that actual power consumption can vary based on the AC's efficiency and usage patterns, so it's always best to refer to the AC's specifications or consult the manufacturer for more accurate information.
