Abstract

Nowadays, lots of energy saving device (ESD) has been offered to the customer. The product is easily install and run, but consumer does not know how the device functioning and it will significantly minimized electricity costs. The background of study is the ESD will improve power factor, increase the power quality by stabilizing the voltage, and reduce the impact of electrical surges. The problem statements of this study are consumer does not know how the ESD operates, how it can reduce electricity, and how exaclty its functioning. Meanwhile, the objectives of this study are to study the components and the operations of the ESD, to investigate the effectiveness of ESD when operate on different power usages and to investigate either there are reduction in the cost of electricity after the installation of the ESD. The methodology for this study is firstly identifying the quantity of electrical appliances in a house and the values of voltage, current, real power, apparent power, reactive power and power factor are taken by using multimeter and wattmeter. Then the chosen energy saving device have been install to the house and all the data are recorded. The data is analysis by calculating the reduction of power consumption after installation of ESD and the simulation is made. The results in this study the percentage of reduction of electricity costs of the house is 3.23 or RM5.27 per month. As a conclusion, the taken data have proved that by installed the ESD, the power factor is increased but the energy consumption not reduces much as expected
