01 / Describe the scope

Window rectangle area

Estimate the area of matching rectangular panes for an enquiry. Final measurements, compatibility and order quantity need professional confirmation.

Width × height × count. No cutting allowance, frame area or shaped panes. Measure only from a safe position.
02 / Keep the units clear

Electricity-use scenario

Use an explicitly assumed constant load and your own applicable tariff. Variable equipment use may need a suitable measured energy record.

W × hours × days ÷ 1000 = kWh; kWh × tariff = energy charge. Excludes fixed charges, time-of-use allocation and other bill components. Enter 30 cents as 0.30.
03 / Compare like with like

Annual energy-charge comparison

Compare two supplied annual energy figures at the same rate. Keep category, capacity and source assumptions aligned.

Each annual kWh × shared tariff. This arithmetic does not verify your inputs, include purchase costs or forecast a complete bill. Results stay in this page; nothing is submitted.
