How can i calculate using electricity in oil field radiator?

I have a oil field radiator and I want to find out how much I have to pay for its using electricity each hour. It use 1500Watt and it is outomatic.How can i calculate using electricity in oil field radiator?
This works by having an electric element in a bath of oil. The element heats the oil to a certain temperature. The oil then slowly looses the heat to the outside world. When the oil has cooled to a certain level, then the element turns on again to heat the oil up.





1500W - it uses 1 1/2 units for every hour that it is heating the oil, of course the element might not be on for a full hour, it might be on fo half an hour in an hour, so uses 1 1/2 units in 2 hours. 1 unit typically costs about 8p at the moment, though you can get it cheaper by shopping around (check uswitch.com)





The actual amount of energy needed depends on too many variables for me to say ';It will cost you 拢1 a day';. For example, the size of the room you are heating, how many outside walls and windows it has, whether the doors and windows are kept open or shut, the temperature you want the room, how many hours the heater is heating the room for (is it off overnight, for example), many variables





You can replace it with an electric fan heater which will use a simular amount of energy to heat the room to the same temperature.How can i calculate using electricity in oil field radiator?
Oil FILLED radiator, 1500 watts is equal to burning one and a half units per hour, check your electricity bill to see what you are paying per unit.
I'd like to answer this question with another question - is the standard of literacy falling?
As it's automatic and will have many variables, switch ever electric appliance in the house off, take a meter reading, gob down the pub for an hour and see how much has been used.
depends how big the Field is!!
you can get a machine for that
