How to read the result
An appliance's wattage tells you nothing on its own. Runtime and your tariff decide whether it is background noise or the reason your bill jumped.
Enter the wattage from the label, how long it runs and your per-kWh rate.
This page is set to France and prints EUR. Starts at 0,250 € per kWh. Every figure is a starting point you should overwrite with your own.
