Typically, there are devices that a lot of families never unplug from the power outlet to cut off the power supply. Many people thinks that this is very normal and if we do not use the device but keep it plugged in, it will not waste electricity. This point of view is completely wrong!
According to the experience shared by long-time electricians, one of the common causes of wasting electricity is not unplugging electrical appliances when not in use. The electrician warns that the 4 devices below are the ones that everyone should consider immediately to save electricity effectively!
1. The TV
The more modern the smart TV is, the more electricity it can consume to maintain the network connection. So unplugging the TV when not in use is an economical and energy-saving way.
The TV is not completely turned off although we have pressed the Off button on the remote control. Even if not used, if the plug is not unplugged, the TV is still in standby mode, there is always an electric current running inside to maintain functions such as timer, software update, channel memory, etc.
2. A phone charger
Even if not connected to the phone, the charger continues to consume a small amount of electricity if plugged into an outlet. Though this amount of electricity is not large, if calculated in total over a long period of time, it will contribute to increasing electricity costs.
Hanging the charger, on the other hand, is quite dangerous because you can easily get an electric sh0ck if you touch it. Placing the charger with the current on a pillow or blanket can also easily lead to a fire due to electric leakage. So we should form the habit of unplugging the charger when not in use, not only to save electricity but also to prolong the life of the charger.
3. The water heater
The water heater should be disconnected from the power source if not in use
