Annual electricity consumption of household appliances

The dataset presents the **annual electricity consumption** of the different **domestic appliances and items of expenditure (kWh)**. * The data of the consumption item **"General"** corresponds to the **total** electricity consumption of housing over the year, all appliances and consumption items combined. * Multiple devices (e.g.: two televisions) are sometimes measured in the same dwelling (see: "Device number"). * Where the measurement period is not complete, the data have been annualised using linear extrapolation. * Four Elecdom exercises are currently available. <br /> ## The Elecdom Panel The overall objective of the PANEL ELECDOM project is to improve knowledge of electricity consumption in the residential sector, which, with 33% of French electricity consumption in 2017, is the most consuming sector. This study focuses on the specific uses of electricity. Based on information collected in the field, this research system, which is unique in France, is intended to continue with the aim of dynamically assessing the impact of societal changes and consumption patterns (products, behaviour). A communication system records, at a time step of 10 minutes in 100 housing units representative of the French stock, the electricity consumption of the appliances connected to the power outlets and those of the electrical outlets on the switchboard. The data is then sent daily to an ftp server. Each dwelling is equipped with an average of 24.8 measuring points.
