Which is more power consuming??

can anyone tell me what is more consuming?

a split type aircon with 1.5 hp on for 4-7 hours OR

a computer which is turned on for 10 hours with UPS 500 watts

can anyone explaine pleaseü thanks

Answer:

The computer consumes about 100 watts of power. For 10 hours, thats 1000 watt-hours or 1 kw hour. The rating on the UPS is what it will deliver, not what it uses. If the UPS is charged, it%26#39;s consuming very little power.

A 1.5 hp air conditioner consumes about 1119 watts per hour. (1 hp = 746 watts) Running for 4 hours is 4476 watt-hours or 4.476 kw hours. 7 hours would be 7833 watt-hours, or 7.833 kw-hours. Even for the shortest time, the A/C consumes 4 times as much power as the computer does over 10 hours.

There are other factors, such as the A/C may not be running constantly but cycling on and off as needed. You may have other equipment that you turn on with your computer such as printers, scanners, etc. But the A/C is still a much bigger demand than the computer. aircon without a doubt...
