Home Energy Lab Update


Previously discussing the home energy lab I discussed ways that I could help my family reduce our power use. I have been collecting data over the past month and now that it is all collected I can see what worked for us and what didn’t. One of the biggest problems faced while doing this lab was the fact that I am rarely home. It is difficult to calculate all the electricity that my family is using and the amount of time they are using the appliances while I am not home. Although I had asked of them to work with me on this in order for this data collection to go smoothly, I do not have control of what they all do. Collecting the data for this lab was difficult to do because during the week I leave home early in the morning and don’t return until later in the evening.
