if you take ajasent billing periods you may not have much deviation
at all on temperature.

Change the experiment parameters every other day.
That mitigates the seasonal things like HVAC.
Simple enough on our residential meters here
in AZ.

Greetings All,
I would like to show the actual dollar savings if we shut down machinery at
work during lunchtime. I know basic electric theory, but could use a hand
from someone with an industrial background.
Basically, no one is shutting down our punch presses during breaks. The
motors are 3 phase and either 220 or 440. I could find out the kilowatt
rates that we pay. What else do I need and how do I plug the numbers in to
come up with
a dollar amount for every hour that they let the motor run? I know that I
need the amperage from the motor nameplate.
I have seen electric questions here bring on a flood of both replies and
arguments, I don't want to see that happen. If the thread gets too long,
just let it die and we'll all keep to WWing........ Many thanks, Mark



why are you giving the employees off for lunch? cant they eat a sandwich

Naah, it gets mustard in the punch presses. Corrosive, you know.
