What is wasted electricity?
1. One example is “electronic noise” generated by electronic devices and actually is harmful to the device. This wasteful electronic noise drains more wattage than it uses, adding unnecessarily to your electric bill. 2. Then there are spikes and surges which occur by the hundreds every day. These spikes and surges shorten the lifespan of your valuable and sensitive electronic equipment. 3. Apparent Power versus Real Power used. This is the power motors/appliances call for when they “rev-up or start up” but only use a portion of the electricity sent to them. This is the extra or wasted electricity which is captured by the capacitors and recycled for use.
