I have been using my friend google but all the examples are out of date or don't include the appliances I want ie panel heater and convector heater aswell as normal items like microwave, kettle etc.

Also florescent strip lights.

So does anyone have an up to date electricity consumption guide.

Many thanks.

    All your appliances should display a rating panel that will inform you how much electricity they each consume. (You will probably find the rating for the flourescent light on the bulb itself)

    Be especially careful with the microwave. It may be called say an 800W microwave, but the 800W will refer to the cooking power. It may actually consume more like 1200W. :)
