They actually do know what your running. But suggest that they are charging more depending on the machine.... FFS
Cleaner electricity for a washing machine.how would they know it's my washing machine drawing a current, rather than my lathe, say?
to answer my own question:how would they know it's my washing machine drawing a current, rather than my lathe, say?
From the website:how would they know it's my washing machine drawing a current, rather than my lathe, say?
wow. our heating and everything else was really high. And we try to only use the washing machine at weekends. What are we doing wrong here? Is "Always on" things like PC, monitors, TV on standby, chargers left plugged in?Eg: This was our March.
Worth noting that the washing machine is on almost every night.
And I think Water Heating = central heating

I’ve smart plugs on my dishwasher and washing machine that allow home assistant to do something similar - when HA notices there’s power being consumed on either one it sends an alert to our phones saying “dishwasher started” or “washing machine started”, then when it observes no power draw for ~15 minutes it send an alert to the kids’ phones saying “dishwasher is finished and needs to be emptied”. Which they ignore.it's basically educated guesswork so - they can see a draw of say 2kW for several minutes, followed by an hour of on and off of a couple of hundred watts, then a draw for a couple of minutes for say 1kW and assume it's a washing machine heating water, then running a normal cycle then a final fast spin; i would guess.
running several appliances at the same time would probably make it less accurate; and i guess non-standard stuff would confuse things. e.g my aforementioned lathe, which maxes out at 1.5kW and often is switched on and off up to several times a minute for half an hour or an hour.
