Power Audit: How to Reduce Your Electricity Bill

Introduction

Power Audit is essential for residential and commercial properties. Imagine using electricity just a few days a month when you return home and paying an enormous bill at the end of the month, this can be annoying and frustrating. This may be due to some connectivity issues that are avoidable or fixable. This post will cover how Power Audit can help you to prevent and solve high electricity costs and electrical disasters in your home or place of business.

What is a Power Audit?

A power audit is a process of evaluating the energy efficiency of a home or business. It is an exercise that helps in understanding the consumption of power and energy in a property either residential or commercial.

The main goal of an audit is to figure out what kinds of electrical problems are there and how to fix them.

This includes an analysis of how the home or business currently uses electricity, as well as an estimate for future energy use. This lets you know if you are using too much electricity and need to change your habits or if you have an electrical problem that needs to be fixed.

A simple audit can help you identify ways to save money on your electric bill while reducing the environmental impact.

Why Power audit?

It is important to have an electrical audit done by professionals in order to avoid any future electrical problems.

A power audit is an inspection of the entire electrical system of a building. The goal of the audit is to identify potential problems and to recommend solutions that can reduce the electricity bills.

We have heard tales of fire outbreaks in structures brought on by subpar electrical maintenance, late discovery of defective connections, etc.

Poor electrical maintenance, delayed diagnosis of defective connections, etc., have all been responsible for building fires in the past.

The prevention of electrical fire outbreaks that might cause property loss and human casualties is a key reason for adopting frequent power audits. This may assist to recommend some preventative steps, such as the installation of a fire alarm system in the building, to help stop the spread of fires.

A typical occurrence is the Ikorodu fire outbreak in November of 2013. This is due to an electrical distribution system failure that caused an apartment building to catch fire and injured three persons.

Another one was at Isolo, in October 2013, when an electrical fire caused a family to lose all their personal belongings. The fire, which officials believe started in one of the wall outlets, destroyed the three-bedroom apartment and its furnishings.

An audit will not only help you save money on your electricity bill, but also identify risks, and plan for future upgrades.
