Comment on This hidden electricity drain can have a massive impact
HowRu68@lemmy.world 1 day agoI had my old house in tested ( after I mostly had it all rewired), by various electricians for energy losses and they claimed that there was always some unaccountable energyloss ( 5% iirc).

What was the source of that energy? Just the wiring or something?

I tried to figure it out myself first, then I had two electricians independently checking it.
And their conclusion was that they didn’t know, and that the 5% was sort of normal. I even had my electricity meter recalibrated by the grid company. I was afraid somone was taping, but no… It still could’ve been the my electricity meter ( which was like only 10 yo), so to be" safe", I have now a newer smart electricicity meter.
