SECTION-1: BEE ENERGY RATINGS REPORT
1.1 Overview: [1]
BEE ratings were introduced to provide an alternative option to consider while choosing an appliance. Earlier
consumers had to keep in mind parameters like cost, configurations. However they were not aware about the
running costs of the appliance. With the introduction of the Energy Labelling Scheme, consumers were made aware
about the electricity consumption of their appliances. Energy Labelling Schemes have been promoted by the
Governments of many countries to propagate their agenda of energy conservation.
Different ratings are similar to each other in terms of evaluation process. However they differ in few things such as
standards and conditions. For e.g. the ratings for a country are designed keeping in mind the voltage and frequency
in that country. The V.F is 230 V, 50 Hz for India.
Other difference in the ratings is the range of appliances covered. For example appliances like Dishwashers, ovens
are yet to be covered by agencies in India while these appliances have been covered in the ratings by the EU
countries. Other difference is the scale of rating. For European Union Energy Label it is on the scale of A to G
instead of star scale of 5 followed in India.
1.2 .BEE Energy Star Label: [1] [2]
The labels contain a number of items. The highlight is the ‘STARS’. More the number of stars, more efficient is the
appliance. There are two kinds of labels – big label and smaller label. For ceiling fans, tube lights,
computers/laptops and televisions, the smaller labels are used while for refrigerators, air conditioners, geysers and
washing machine the big label is used.
BEE labels are mandatory for the appliances under the category-Mandatory Scheme and are not mandatory for the
appliances under the Voluntary Scheme. Given below is the list of the devices under these two schemes.
Mandatory Scheme
1. Frost Free (No-Frost) Refrigerator
3. Room Air Conditioners
2. Tubal Fluorescent Lamps
4. Distribution Transformer
Voluntary Scheme:
1. Room Air Conditioners (Cassette, Floor Standing Tower, Ceiling, Corner AC)
2. Direct Cool Refrigerator
3. Ceiling Fans
4. Liquefied Petroleum Gas Stoves
5. Ballast (Electronic/Magnetic)
6. Geysers
7. Color TV
8.
Washing Machine
9. Computer (Notebook /Laptops)
An additional aspect about the labelling program is that it is updated every year. The star rating plan is different for
products manufactured/imported or assembled in different years. For example. A refrigerator of gross volume 250
Liters manufactured in the year 2010 consuming 385 units is rated five stars. A refrigerator of the same volume
manufactured in the year 2012 consuming same units is rated four stars. This is so, because in 2010 the refrigerator
was among the ones consuming least energy. With technology innovation, there are refrigerators manufactured in
2012 consuming less than the best in 2010.
A green box in the label that shows the year for which the label is applicable. The same holds true for air
conditioners. However, for other appliances, similar update has not been done so far. It is not clearly mentioned
where these ratings have been derived from. However India’s BEE ratings are extremely similar to that of the
Australia’s energy star ratings.
1.3. Appliance - Frost Free Refrigerator: [3]
An example of a printed energy label for a refrigerating appliance is shown in Figure below. The label has the
following:
1. Appliance: Refrigerator
2. Energy Consumption per Year (CEC)
3. Model Name/Number, Year of Manufacturing
4. Brand
5. Type
6. Gross Volume
7. Storage Volume
1.3.1 Calculations for the Energy Label
Projected Annual Energy Consumption (PAEC): It is defined as the estimated energy used by a single unit during
one year’s use. The process of its calculation consists of measuring the tested energy consumption of each unit
tested, then calculating the projected annual energy consumption (PAEC) of the unit.
PAEC = Et * (365/1000) (kWh/Year)
Where Et = tested energy consumption expressed in Wh per 24 hours, rounded to the nearest whole number.
Comparative Energy Consumption (CEC): It is defined as the nominal energy consumption of a model of
refrigerating appliance. It is based on the PAEC (average) of the model. The CEC appears on the energy label.
(Units: kWh/Year)
Total Adjusted Storage Volume for No Frost (Vadj_tot_nf)
The rated storage volume of a compartment adjusted to compensate for heat loadings on spaces which are at
temperature other than that of fresh food type space. The adjusted volume would then be calculated on the basis
of the Storage Volume of each compartment.
1.3.2 Total Adjusted Volume for No Frost (Vadj_tot_nf)



Fresh Food Chamber Target Temperature = +3 Degree Celsius …..(I)
Freezer Chamber Target Temperature = -15 Degree Celsius …….(2)
Adjusted Volume Factor = (Test room Temp. – Freezer Temp.) / (Test room Temp. – Fresh Food Temp.)
Using (1) and (2), Adjusted Volume Factor hence is 1.62

Total Adjusted Volume for No Frost refrigerator (Vadj_tot_nf) = Fresh Food Storage Volume +
1.62 * Freezer Storage Volume
1.3.3 Comparative Energy Consumption
The CEC for a model would not be less than the average (rounded to a whole integer) PAEC value (i.e. PAECav) for
the three (or more) units which are tested to determine the label particulars. The CEC would be an integer in units
of kWh/Year. The CEC and Total Adjusted Storage Volume for No Frost (Vadj_tot_nf) would be used to determine the
Star Rating Band and Star Rating of the model.
The following equation would be used to determine the Star Rating Bands for a particular model.
Following table would be used to decide the star rating depending upon the range.
Star band is valid from 1.01.12 to 31.12.13
1.3.4 Energy Label Validity
The CEC value would be accepted as valid if, when a single sample of a labeled model is tested for an initial
screening test and its PAEC is such that:
PAEC < 1.1 * CEC
If this is not the case, the CEC would be accepted as valid if three additional units are tested and the average PAEC
of these additional units is such that the above condition is fulfilled. Additionally the PAEC should be less than the
upper limit of the corresponding Star Rating Band of the Star Rating of a single model tested or if two additional
units are tested then PAEC of two out of three and PAEC.av should be less than the upper limit of the corresponding
Star Rating Band.
1.3.5 Test required for standard and labelling:
These tests are would be as per IS 15750:2006.
1. Pull down test ( and operating temperature performance test as applicable )
2. Rated energy consumption
3. Rated volume
Given below is a sample label for the refrigerator.
1.4. Appliance - Television: [5]
1.4.1 Star Rating Plan
To calculate the BEE star rating TV is operated on two modes and the energy consumption is then counted. BEE
provides consumers with an estimate of each Star label qualified TV’s annual energy consumption through display
of a kWh/year number. This annual power consumption estimate would be based on a daily usage pattern of 6
hours in On Mode and 12 hours in Standby Mode.
1.4.2 Annual Power Consumption:
To qualify as BEE Star labeled product, all TVs, TV Combination Units, must not exceed the maximum Annual Power
Consumption (APCmax) found from the equations in Table 2 and 3 given below, based on the unit’s native vertical
resolution and visible screen area. The maximum annual power consumption is expressed in kilo-watts per year
and rounded to the nearest whole number. In the following equations, ‘A’ is the viewable screen area of the
product, found by multiplying the display width by the display height. Equations are provided in both standard unit
inches and centimeter.
Corresponding Equations for the star rating table above
1.4.3 Test Conditions (Applicable for India only)
a) Relative Humidity: 10-80%
b) Supply Voltage: 230 (± 1%) Volts AC, 50 Hz (± 1%)
c) Total Harmonic Distortion: < 2% THD (< 5% for products which are rated for > 1.5 kW maximum power)
d) Ambient Temperature: 23°C ± 5°C
Calculating Max Annual Power Consumption: It is defined as the maximum annual power consumption of the
qualified product can be calculated by the following equation. This can be expressed as Measured Max Annual
Power Consumption (MAPCmax).
MAPCmax = (6 x Pa + 12 x Ps) x 0.365 kWh/Year
Where
Pa: On Mode power consumption in Watts
Ps: Standby Mode power consumption in Watts
This annual power consumption estimate would be based on a daily usage pattern of 6 hours in On Mode and
12 hours in Standby Mode.
Comparative Energy Consumption (CEC): The CEC for a qualified product would not be less than the average
(rounded to a whole integer) MAPCmax value (i.e. MAPCmax (avg)) for the three (or more) units which are tested to
determine the label particulars. The CEC would be an integer in units of kWh/Year.
The CEC would be used to determine the Star Rating Band and Star Rating of the model. The CEC of the model as
determined above would be compared with the various Star Rating Bands i.e. APCmax. The Star Rating chosen for
the model would be based on the above comparison. CEC would be compared to the lower and the upper limits of
each Star Rating Band. The Star Rating corresponding to the band whose lower rating is less than CEC and upper
limit is greater than or equal to CEC would be assigned to the model.
Lower Limit of APCmax < CEC ≤ Upper Limit of APCmax
1.5. Appliance- Air Conditioner [7] [8]
The label would mention the following:
1. Appliance/Type
3. Capacity (kW) (Actual Tested)
5. EER (W/W)
7. Heat Pump (Yes/No)
2. Brand/Model Name/Number/Year of Manufacturing
4. Power (Watts)
6. Variable Output Compressor (Yes/No)
An Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) is the ratio of the cooling capacity of an air conditioner in British Thermal Units
(BTU) per hour, to the total electrical input (in watts) under certain specified tests. Air conditioner EER ratings
higher than 10 are considered most cost effective. The higher the ratio, the less the unit would cost to operate.
Star Band Valid from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2013
1.6. Appliance- Washing Machine[6]
Semi-Automatic Category
Fully-Automatic Category
The following benchmarks should be ensured by the manufacturer with relevant test reports .These would be
additional parameters verified other than energy consumption in the BEE check/challenge testing of the sample
drawn.
● % Soil removal of soiled strips for the machine after wash performance test should be ≥ 80%.
●
All washing machines should inform water consumption for the complete cycle on the label. Actual water
consumption should not be more than 110% of the stated water consumption by manufacturer.
●
Water retention in Water Extraction test would not exceed (<) 75%.
●
Rinsing Efficiency should be ≤ 2.25.
The following label is a standard label:
SECTION-2: PROCEDURE OF DATA COLLECTION
2.1 Power Saver
The main purpose of Power Saver is to reduce the electricity Bill and save
Electricity. Power Savers use a modern capacitance technology to dynamically
observe and improve the power consumption of household, office or the
industries. The power monitoring processor technology aims to optimize the
voltage and current demands thus reducing the active power / kWh.
The manufacturers of the power saver claims to achieve up to 50% of
efficiency depending upon country and regular smooth power supply. Power
Saver also acts as a voltage stabilizer by storing power for up to 10 seconds
and consequently supplies the load with constant voltage during brief power
surges. This in turn results in a longer lifetime of an electrical device which is
added money saving advantage. In the later sections of the report the following claims would be tested and
verified.
2.2 Plug Computer [9]
Plug computer is a small form factor computer server for use in the home or
office. The name is derived from the small form factor of such devices: plug
computers are often enclosed in an AC power plug or AC adapter. It is
suitable for running a media server, back-up services, file sharing and remote
access functions, such devices can be used as a bridge between in-home
protocols such as Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) and Server Message
Block (SMB) and cloud based services. In this project it was initially used to
run the python script “telnet_local.py” and collect the data from the JPlug.
2.3 Data collection from JPlug.
JPlug communicates over Wi-Fi to transfer the files. The laptop/plug-computer should also be preferably connected
to the same network.
2.3.1 Settings for the Wi-Fi Router:
First it is important to ensure that the wireless router is installed properly and supports 802.11b protocol. The
wireless router should be connected to the internet since the JPlug gets the time stamp from the internet.
(However in the later stages due to some issues regarding the Internet Connectivity, that feature was disabled).
In the next stage one should ensure that DHCP service in the router is enabled. JPlug expects the router to have a
specific SSID and Password. These can be set under Wireless Security settings of the router. Following are the
specifications that were set up:
SSID: WattzupAP
Password: Wattzup Secret PSK Password
Security: WPA-Personal can be chosen
2.3.2 JPlug connection to an appliance
The JPlug is connected to the main socket and the appliance is connected to the socket on the JPlug. After
switching the Power ON the JPlug, the appliances would now get powered through JPlug. The green LED on the
JPlug should glow. JPlug would obtain its IP address from the DHCP server running on the wireless router.
2.3.3 Running the Script on the Computer
After the connection is established, one needs to run the python script on the computer through the terminal in
the following format. Here test is the name of the file where output would be stored.
python telnet_local.py test &
Through MySQL server which is pre-installed on the computer, one can open the database of the JPlug and read
and manage the files as well as convert them into any desirable format. In this project, they were converted into
the csv files. Given below is the sample output row of the csv files.

4.2 Appliances’ Data Analysis:
4.2.1 Refrigerator
Home-3: Model: Samsung-Silver Nano
Home-1: Model: Samsung- RT2BSWE
Time: 11-12pm
Home-4: Model: Samsung- RT2BSDTS
Time: 16:00-17:47pm
Home-5: Model: Samsung- RT2BSDSS
Time: 11:40am-1:03pm
Home-6: Model: Samsung-Bottom French door Refrigerator

Overnight Data Collection: Model: Samsung-Silver Nano
Time: 1:20pm-2:10pm
Time: 9-10pm
Above diagram depicts a process cycle of the refrigerator. Here basically the refrigerator has two
process- Evaporation and Condensation of the refrigerant. The condensation of the refrigerant
occurs by maintaining high pressure region whereas the evaporation of the refrigerant occurs by
maintaining low pressure region. In the evaporator heat is transferred from inside air to the
refrigerant whereas in the condenser heat is transferred from refrigerant to the outside air. The
process cycle is helpful in explaining the patterns observed in the subsequent graphs
4.2.1.1 Active Power
Overnight: Model: Samsung-Silver Nano
X-axis: Time in seconds
Y-axis: Power in watts
Here for the overnight refrigerator note that the peaks are less intense and rectangular blocks
are for a smaller duration. This shows that refrigerator consumes comparatively less electricity
during the night time. This can be due to reason that during the night, temperature outside is
low. Hence the refrigerant takes comparatively less electricity.
Time: 11-12pm
Although the refrigerator model is different, yet it shows the same pattern as above. A reason
for this can be due to the same conditions and hence same reasons are applicable for this case
as well.
Y-axis: Power in Watts
Time: 16:00-17:47pm
Home-5: Model: Samsung- RT2BSDSS Time: 11:40am - 1:03pm
Unlike the other refrigerator the capacity and size of this model is significantly small. Due to this
the energy consumption of this refrigerator has been significantly lesser than the other models.
Home-6:
Model: Samsung-Bottom Freezer French door Refrigerator
Home-7: Model: Samsung-RT2ASRSW
Time: 9-10pm
Time: 1:20pm-2:10pm
From the all graphs above it is easy to see that the shape of the graphs have been similar. They
have peak followed by rectangle for some time and then low energy consumption for a longer
period.
This is because it consumes energy to condense the refrigerant. Later during the cooling
refrigerant takes up the heat from the fridge and then evaporates.
Note that for the graphs except the Home-6 the graphs have been for the frost free
refrigerators.
For the Home-6 the graph have been for the French door refrigerator which is not frost. Frost
free refrigerators do consume more energy for a continuous period to keep the refrigerator
frost free whereas this is not the case for other appliance (non-frost free).
4.2.1.2 Reactive Power:
Overnight: Model: Samsung-Silver Nano
X-axis : Time in seconds
Home-5:
Model: Samsung-Silver Nano
Time: 16:00-17:47pm
Home-6:
Time: 9-10pm
Time: 1:20pm-2:10pm
Home-3: Model: Samsung-Silver Nano
Time: 9-10pm
Time: 11-12pm
Note that in all the graphs pattern for the reactive power it is same as that of the active power.
However the consumption of the reactive power is pretty high for refrigerators and is positive.
Refrigerators require high amount reactive power to maintain the voltage.
Since reactive power is very high than the active power, hence one can say that power factor of
the refrigerator is pretty low.
4.2.1.3 Voltage:
Home-3:
Time: 9-10pm
Y-axis: Voltage in volts
Overnight:
An interesting pattern for the overnight refrigerator is that voltage is increasing steadily to reach
a point around 250 after which it starts decreasing. This happens in spite of the fact that the
active power is low during the night time.
Time: 11-12pm
Note that during the night time note that the voltage is increasing steadily.
Time: 16:00-17:47pm
Note here that in the evening time the voltage is decreasing.
Home-5:
Model: Samsung- RT2BSDSS
Time: 11:40am-1:03pm
Home-6:
Time: 9-10pm
Time: 1:20pm-2:10pm
An important conclusion is that voltage keeps increasing steadily for the refrigerator as the
morning time continues. However as the evening progresses the voltage then starts to decrease
steadily. During the night for a steady period the voltage rises and then falls all throughout the
night.
4.2.2 Washing Machine
For all the washing machines from where data was collected were by the Samsung. Power
ratings were 330W, Voltage-220V and frequency- 50 Hz.
Washing
Spinning
Rinsing
The above diagram depicts the life cycle of a washing machine. One cycle of washing machine
starts with Rinsing->Spinning->Washing. This diagram is helpful in understanding the various
patterns in the subsequent graphs mentioned below.
However all of them were completely different models with major differences in the capacity
which roughly lied between 6.2-7kg. Yet these differences hardly had any effect on the graphs.
Washing Machines:
Home-3: Model: MWA82VSLEC/XTL 6.2 kg Fully Automatic
Home-7: Model: WT900iEG 7 kg Fully Automatic
Home-4: Model: WT8505EG 6.5 kg Fully Automatic
Home-6: Model: WT85070AG 6.5 kg Fully Automatic
4.2.2.1 Active Power:
Home-3
Time 6:00-7:00pm
Time 7:00-8:00pm
Time: 9:00am-10:09am
Time: 9:34 am-9:55 am
Time: 10:01am-10:18am
Time: 10:10am to 11:25am
Home-4: X-axis: Time in seconds
In all the graphs above, as mentioned, the washing machines are taking up around 300W.
Typically one whole wash in a washing machine takes one hour. This includes washing, rinsing
and then spinning with each stage taking 10-15 minutes.
During these stages, the washing machines draws a lot of electricity and this is evident from all
the graphs above where during one hour 3 flat mountains were seen which depicted washing,
rinsing and spinning.
During intermediate stages of the washing machine was drawing/ releasing water and hence
very less electricity was consumed. Note that for the Home-K and Home-3a washing was
immediately followed by rinsing. This shows rinsing takes less power than the other stages i.e.
washing and spinning.
In these stages rinsing followed washing immediately because the water supply in these homes/
during those stages was very good. Shorter washing/rinsing /spinning periods depends upon
the clock time set up by the consumer.
4.2.2.2 Voltage:
Time 6:00-7:00pm
Y-axis: Voltage in Volts
Note that the voltage is constantly decreasing though there is an intermediate jump
Home-7:
Model: WT900iEG 7 kg Fully Automatic
Home-4:
Time: 9:34am-9:55am
Y-axis: Voltage in Volt
During this period the voltage is fluctuating heavily. During the morning time there is heavy load
because of which the voltage keeps fluctuating.
Home-5:
Time: 10:01am-10:18am
Just like the previous case here also the voltage is fluctuating heavily. As stated above earlier
this can be attributed to the morning time when the load is very high.
Home-6: Model: WT85070AG 6.5 kg Fully Automatic
Here the reason can same as that for the previous two cases
Time 6:00-7:00pm
Y-axis: Reactive Power in Watts
Here as one can see that the shape of the reactive power has been pretty much the same as
that of the active power. However the difference is there in terms of the peak. Reactive power
has been showing high values than active power thus making power factor very low.
Home-7: Model: WT900iEG 7 kg Fully Automatic
Home-4: Model: WT8505EG 6.5 kg Fully Automatic Time: 9:34 am-9:55 am
Time: 10:01am-10:18am
Here unlike the other graphs the reactive power decreased marginally and then remained
constantly fluctuating around 2.6 W.
Home-6:
Model: WT85070AG 6.5 kg Fully Automatic
The graph is very identical to its own active power graph. However unlike the other graphs the
mountains have been very steep. Overall in the graphs for the reactive power of the washing
machine the value of the reactive power has been higher than that of the active power. This
makes the power factor very low for the washing machine.
4.2.3 Television
Home-3 Model: Sony-KV-XA21M83 Minitron Color Television
Home-4: Model: Sony- KD -34XS955 Minitron Color Television
Home-5: Model: Sony- KW-34HD1 Trinitron Color Television

Home-7: Model: Samsung-CS14B500KJKXXL 34 inch ultra slim
Time: 5:38pm-6:52pm
Time: 9:30pm-9:52pm
Note that for all the models connection for TV was separate from that of the satellite receiver
and hence satellite receiver was not included into the data collection.
Time: 10:00-11:00am
Note that the graph is fluctuating heavily for the CRT based televisions.
Home-4
Model: Sony- KD -34XS955 Minitron Color Television
Home-5
Model: Sony- KW-34HD1 Trinitron Color Television
Time: 10:34-11:19pm
Time: 8:15pm-9:02pm
Home-6
Model: Samsung-Full HD, LED TV 40 inch in diameter
Time: 5:38pm-6:52pm
Note the active power for the televisions has been very high in comparison to that of the CRT
tubes though they claim to be energy efficient.
A key feature associated with that is that. CRT based televisions are not energy efficient, but
they use less energy than newer models because they're so much smaller in size.
CRT televisions are not energy efficient because the active power fluctuates heavily.
Home-7
Model: Samsung-CS14B500KJKXXL 34 inch ultra slim
Time: 21:30 for 1352 sec
Similarly for this case the fluctuation has not been very much showing the efficient energy use.
4.2.3.2 Voltage
Time: 10:00-11:00am
Home-4:
Model: Sony- KD -34XS955 Minitron Color Television
Time: 10:34-11:19pm
Home-5: Model: Sony- KW-34HD1 Trinitron Color Television
Time: 8:15pm-9:02pm
Home-6: Model: Samsung-Full HD, LED TV 40 inch in diameter Time: 5:38pm-6:52pm
Home-7: Model: Samsung-CS14B500KJKXXL 34 inch ultra slim
Time: 9:30pm-9:52pm
Note that voltage has almost remained steady on the same level though it decreased initially
and increased later.
An important conclusion is that for non CRT televisions the voltage has moreover remained the
same, though it also fluctuated. However for the CRT televisions, the voltage has steadily
increased as the night progressed and has steadily decreased during the day.
Home-3: Model: Sony-KV-XA21M83 Minitron Color Television
Time: 10:00-11:00am
Home-4: Model: Sony- KD -34XS955 Minitron Color Television
Y-axis: Reactive Power in watts
Home-5
Model: Sony- KW-34HD1 Trinitron Color Television
Time: 10:34-11:19pm
Time: 8:15pm-9:02pm
Y-axis: Reactive Power in watts
Note that all the graphs above were for the CRT based television. Here the reactive power is
negative and almost same in magnitude as the active power is. This has made power factor very
high.
Home-6:
Model: Samsung-Full HD, LED TV 40 inch in diameter
Time: 5:38pm-6:52pm
Home-7
Model: Samsung-CS14B500KJKXXL 34 inch ultra slim
Time: 9:30pm-9:52pm
Note that here the reactive power has been largely negative though the value suddenly jumped
out to become less negative later on.
Hence one can conclude that the reactive power is less negative for the LED and modern
television.
This decreases the power factor and the system draws and wastes more current from the
system.

Time: 9:35-9:40am
Home-3: RO Kent Eilte-2 MRO
Time: 10:00-11:00 pm
Here note that the power consumption is very high mainly because the RO’s capacity was very
high-around 14 litres. Also it was using Reverse Osmosis technology and hence required a lot of
energy consumption.
Home-4: RO Eureka Forbes
Time: 8:20-8:30am
Home-5: Model: Eureka Forbes Water Filter
Time: 10:34-10:38am
Home-7 Model: Eureka Forbes Pure
Time: 9:35-9:40am
Note that the above three water filters are not RO based. Though they are of the same
company, yet they all are different models.
The capacity of this water filters is also not very high-around 1-3 litres.
These are simple candle based water filters and don’t use the reverse osmosis technology which
consumes a lot of electricity.
These are the reasons why the active power consumption is around 23-24 W only for the above
three cases.
4.2.4.2 Voltage:

RO Eureka Forbes-Pure
Time: 10:34-10:38am
Time: 9:35-9:40am
From the graphs above it is difficult to jump to any particular conclusion. However it is easy to
see that the range of the voltage has been fluctuating between 236W to 241 W.
Home-3:
Model: RO Kent Eilte-2 MRO
Time: 10:00-11:00 pm
Note that for this case the reactive power has been negative throughout.
This shows that the capacitive load has been dominant.
Negative reactive power has decreased the power factor and hence less current is being drawn
comparatively from the system.
Home-4.

Time: 8:20-8:30am
Time: 10:34-10:38am
Home-7
Model: RO Eureka Forbes-Pure
Time: 9:35-9:40am
For the rest of the cases except the first one (for the Kent Elite-1), the reactive power has been
positive. This has decreased the power factor and hence much load has been put up on to the
system.
Thus Non RO systems are not energy efficient.
4.2.5 Electric Iron:
Home-2: Model: Electric Iron-GC1115/02/B
Home-3 Model: Electric Iron- GC1115/02/B
Time: 4:00-4:15pm
Time: 2:20-2:30pm
Here the electric iron is consuming 1400 W of power at regular intervals. Electric iron has a
tungsten coating on its bottom which requires high load of power to get heated up.
Therefore the iron provides short term electric shocks to the electric iron to keep it heated.
4.2.5.2 Voltage
Just like the active power a similar graph can be seen for the voltage.
When the power input becomes high, so does the voltage and it also changes dramatically.
Note that the reactive power is continuously showing peaks. The peaks are either positive or
sometimes negative.
Negative peak shows immediate increase on the capacitive load whereas the positive peak
shows the load on the inductive load.
For heavy power consuming appliances like motor, electric iron inductive load is dominant.
Hence the power factor is very low for them.

4.3 Mobile and Laptop Conditions:
Note that all the experiments for this section were done in the hostel (college) environment.
4.3.1 Laptop:
ACTIVE POWER: Here while the laptop is charging there has been a constant supply of active
For the graph on right: X-axis: Percent battery status
For the graph on left: X-axis: Time in seconds
In the figure on right encircled portion shows very low active power for initial battery status
(0-10)% and for later stages highlighted portion signifies how active power is constantly
decreasing as the percent battery charged is increasing (after 80-100)%.
Power fluctuating in the range of 60-80 W. However after reaching 80% of battery charging, the
active power starts decreasing. Here note that the time to charge from 80-100% has also
increased significantly.
Also another interesting fact is that for initial charging of from 0-10 % there has been almost
negligible charging.
Here in the figure below while the laptop is 100 % charged, yet after decreasing initially the
active power came down and remained in the range of 33-35W throughout. This can be
because of the electrical supply is now being passed to the laptop and active power is not being
used to charge the battery as it was happening earlier.
For both the graphs above
In the figure above the charger is not in contact with the laptop and the battery. Yet instead of
taking the no active power, it is consuming some active power in the range of around .1-.45 W.
CURRENT: Here for charging and fully charged, the graph showed almost the same pattern as
active showed. However for charging when battery was 10-80 % charged, the range of current
was in .3 to .35 A after which it started to drop.
Similarly for when the battery was 100 percent charged, the pattern was same as that of the
active power. Here current after initially decreasing remained constant in the range of .17-.18 A
throughout.
For the above graph X-axis: Time in seconds
Y-axis: Current in Amperes
Above figure is while the battery is discharging and the laptop is not attached with the charger.
However here current is not null and is consuming constantly either .024A or .025A.
REACTIVE POWER:
The above figure is for the reactive power while charging. Here since the reactive power is
negative throughout one can conclude that the capacitive load is dominant. During the charging
10-80% reactive power is fluctuating between -33-(-37) W. After 80% of the battery is charged, it
starts to increase.
For both the graphs above:
The above case is when the battery is fully charged. Initially the reactive power is increasing and
after sometime it becomes constant and remains in the range of -21-(-23) W range throughout.
Here except for the few peaks the reactive power has been nearly constant around -5.7 W.
Below graph is for the case when the phone is discharging and the charger is not in the contact with the
phone
Here
VOLTAGE:
For the graphs X-axis: Time in seconds
However for the case of discharging, the voltage saw a sudden drop. This might be attributed to
a sudden increase on the load.
However for the case of fully charged it has been changing around 237W.
As one can see above the voltage for charging has been nearly changing only a little around
240W.
4.3.2 MOBILE
ACTIVE POWER:
As one can see above in the figure, the active power has been heavily fluctuating in the range
4.3-4.55W. Here the fluctuation is independent of the status of the charging unlike the case of
the laptop.
The figure below is the case when the mobile is fully charged except for the fact that it is still
connected with the charger. Here as one can see the active power has remained negligible
except for some time when a sudden jump/change in the active power has been seen. This can
be attributed by the reason that for during that period, services that require heavy battery
usage like 3G, Gaming etc. might have been used.
For the case of discharging active power has been completely zero throughout. Note that
discharging is a case when charger is connected with the socket but is not in contact with the
mobile.
CURRENT:
As one see above for the charging, the current has taken handful of the values between .037A-.04A.
However like active power it is also constantly changing.
The above case is for the fully charged. Here most of times the current has been in the range of .010.011A except for the interval between 1200-2000 and 2700-3600 seconds. A reason for this can be that
during this perios when heavy current was consumed, heavy battery consuming appilcations might ben
running.
Below figure is for discharging. Here note that unlike the active power, the current has not been zero.
REACTIVE POWER:
For the above graph on right: X-axis: Time in seconds
For the graph on the left: X-axis: Time in seconds
Y-axis: Battery Status in percent
Here note that reactive power has been negative and has been constantly fluctuating.
During the case of the fully charged, initially reactive power was nearly constant and positive.
However later it started fluctuating heavily 6W and -6W.
For both the graphs: X-axis: Time in seconds
In the case of the discharging, reactive power has been positive and fluctuate quickly though
the range of value is very small.
VOLTAGE:
In all the three graphs (charging, discharging and fully charged) the voltage has been changing
frequently. In both the graphs below-for discharging and fully charged.
The above case is when the phone is charging

4.4 Power Saver and its Impact
The main aim of the power saver is to reduce the active power. The appliances available in the
market claims to reduce the active power consumption by 5-10 percent. Through this
experiment we would verify the claim
Here in this section we have taken each appliance and analyzed if the power saver had any
positive, negative or negligible impact.
Company: Samsung
On the right is the appliance with Power Saver –
On the left is the appliance without Power SaverX-axis: Time in seconds
For the power saver in the graphs, the mountains became less flat. However the peaks were
much steeper in graph where power saver device was used.
4.4.2 Electric Iron:
Company: Philips
Type: GC1115/02/B
Both the graphs are more or less the same. Hence one can say that the impact of the power
saver was negligible.
4.4.3 Television
Company: Sony
Type:KV-XA21M83 Minitron Color Television
On the right is the appliance with Power Saver:
On the left is the appliance without Power Saver:
Though the fluctuation is occurring in both the graphs, the graph with power saver is more or
less in the higher side than on the lower side. Hence the impact of power saver can be
considered more or less negative in this case.
4.4.4 Electric Motor
Company: Crompton Greaves
Time: (Power Saver):8-9am
On the right is the appliance with Power SaverX-axis: Time in seconds
In the graph on the left side there was a sudden fall in the graph, though it recovered later. This
can be attributed to the sudden drop in the voltage. This phenomenon is voltage drop. This
happens due to sudden increase in the intake of the current. However the graph recovered
later though the active power continued to fall.
In the graph on the right side has the use of power saver in it. Here one key thing is that the
active power is continuing to rise and thus active power might have no or negative impact on
the active power.
4.4.5 Refrigerator
Company: Samsung
Model: Silver Nano
X-axis: Time in seconds Y-axis: Power in Watts
On the left is the appliance without Power SaverX-axis: Time in seconds Y-axis: Power in Watts
Here power saver did not have significant impact on the active power. However the active
power’s mountain got more flatter.
4.4.6 RO/Filter

Operating Voltage- 24V DC
On the right is the appliance with Power SaverX-axis: Time in seconds Y-axis: Power in Watts
On the left is the appliance without Power SaverX-axis: Time in seconds Y-axis: Power in Watts
Here the impact of the power saver is almost negligible.
Conclusions for the power saver: Power saver has no impact on the active power. Though
the active power claims to reduce the active power consumption by 5-10 percent yet this has
not been seen anywhere in the graphs above.
4.5 24 Hours Analysis:
4.5.1 Hostel-Institutional Environment
4.5.1.1 Voltage:
The starting time for the collection was 5:18 pm. Note that there was has been little
fluctuation in the voltage during the night time. As the day progresses the fluctuation starts
more and more though in a definitive range of 235-240 W. During the night there has been very
little fluctuation. This can be attributed to heavy load during the day time and comparatively
less heavy load during the night time. A reason why voltage is stable in institutional
environment is due to the use of the voltage regulator which automatically maintains a
constant voltage level.
4.5.1.2 Frequency:
Y-axis: Frequency in Hertz
Note that the starting time for the analysis was 5:18 pm. Frequency has been
more or less stable and has been maintained in between the range of 49.9 and
50.1 Hz. This might be attributed to the use of thee frequency stabilizers in the
institutional environment.
4.5.2. Home Environment
4.5.2.1 Voltage:
Note that the starting time for the analysis was 7am. Here not that the voltage
has been fluctuating heavily. The voltage is not following any definitive pattern
here. The range of voltage has been in 225-250 W.
4.5.2.2 Frequency:
Y-axis: Frequency in Hertz
Note that the starting time has been 7 am. The frequency just like the voltage has
been unstable. The range of the frequency has been between 49.2 and 50.6 Hz.
