To estimate the electricity consumption of a 195-liter 4-star fridge in a day, we need to consider the energy efficiency rating, which is represented by the star rating. In India, the star rating system is used to indicate the energy efficiency of refrigerators, with more stars indicating higher efficiency.
Typically, the star ratings for refrigerators in India are as follows:
1 Star: Less energy-efficient 2 Stars: Low energy efficiency 3 Stars: Moderate energy efficiency 4 Stars: High energy efficiency 5 Stars: Very high energy efficiency
A 4-star rated refrigerator is considered to have high energy efficiency compared to lower star-rated models.
In India, the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) provides a standard for calculating the annual electricity consumption of refrigerators based on their star rating and storage volume. the BEE's calculation for a 4-star 195-liter refrigerator is approximately 125 kWh (units) of electricity consumption per year.
To convert this to daily consumption, we can divide the annual consumption by the number of days in a year:
Daily electricity consumption ≈ 125 kWh / 365 days ≈ 0.34 kWh (units)
So, a 195-liter 4-star rated refrigerator in India is estimated to consume around 0.34 kWh (units) of electricity per day. Please note that actual consumption may vary based on factors like usage patterns, ambient temperature, and the refrigerator's specific features and technology.
