PART 1: Getting to know Electrical Equipment Label (Any brand based label highlighted in this document is for the purpose of knowledge only. AWER does not give any recommendation to such brands or products) 1.1 Where to find a label? Labels are usually situated in front, bottom, side or back of the product. Sometimes, there is also power consumption details printed in the product’s manual. The video clips in the ‘Form with Graphics’ Interface of the Click d’ Thief’ Low CO2 Tool would be able to give you some examples. 1.2 What information to get from labels? You need to know either the Power value or both the Current and Voltage values. Let us see some example. Power (Watt) = Current (Ampere) x Voltage (Volt), Power value is used to measure electricity consumption of an equipment. Electricity consumption is measured via kiloWatthour (kWh) and this is assisted by our Click d’ Thief Low CO2 Tool. So, do not worry too much about the numbers. How to get the Power value? Power value is measured in the unit Watt or W. Here are 2 examples of labels for your reference: Label Needed value

Power: 99 W

Power: 470 W

How to get the Current and Voltage value if you could not find the Power value? Current value is measured in the unit Ampere or A, and Voltage value is measured in the unit Volt or V. Sometimes, the current value comes in miliAmpere or mA. Example, if a current value is 96 miliAmpere (mA), it is equivalent to 0.096 A. (1000 mA = 1A)

Label Needed value

Current : 5.4 A Voltage: 240 V *Use input value as it is the correct value for electricity consumption of the equipment.

Current : 0.3 A Voltage: 240 V

PART 2: How to use Click d’ Thief 2.1. Start-up of the Click d’ Thief Low CO2 Tool

Step 1: Once you click to enter the ‘Click d’ Thief’ page, the online calculator will start to load. If your internet connection is very slow, the loading will take time. During loading, if the page animation goes blank (white page), this is mainly due to very slow internet connection. Do wait patiently for it to fully load.

Step 2: The Click d’ Thief Low CO2 Tool is ready when the CFL (Compact Fluorescent Light) is on. Just click the Start button.

Step 3: Choose a region where you are staying or operating. Choose between Peninsular Malaysia or Sarawak or Sabah.

Step 4: A tariff category selection box will pop up. Choose between the main tariffs categories that are specified in the region you select.

Step 5: Once you have chosen a tariff category, click Ok.

Step 6: Now the sub-category of the tariff will be displayed. Choose according to the category given to you via your electricity bill.

Step 7: You will reach a choice of catching the thief. You can either choose the Form with Graphics (you’ll have videos for labels) or if you are well versed, you can choose the Form Only option. You can also switch from ‘Form with Graphics’ interface to ‘Form Only’ interface easily. * For industry tariff category with peak hour and off peak hour, you’ll be directed straight to specific form type interface.

2.2 How to use Form with Graphics Interface

Step 1: Once you enter to the ‘Form with Graphics’ interface, a video clip will be playing to show where the equipment’s label is placed. Towards the end of the video clip, you will be informed about this How to use document as well.

Step 2: Now, you already know how to extract information based on the label from Part 1 of this document. So, you will be needing equipment’s name, its quantity, either Power value or both Current and Voltage value. Once you have inserted the details, click Next. Sample: Air Cond 1, 2 units, Power: 950 Watt.

Step 3: Then, you need to determine the operational time for selected equipment(s). How many hours you use it in a day? How many days you use it in a month? This can be an average estimated value. After that, click Next. Sample: Air conditioner is used for 8 hours for 30 days.

Step 4: You can now view the electricity consumption in kiloWatthour (kWh) and the carbon footprint (kgCO2) for the product. If you want to delete a product, just click on the row of record that you want to delete and click the Delete button. From this page, you can choose to enter via Form Only interface or Form with Graphics interface if you wish to add other equipments.

Step 5a: If you click to enter Form Only interface, your previous data will be carried forward for calculation. Do not worry, the interfaces are linked. Usually, a user that is already accustomed to the calculator will choose Form Only interface for quick results.

Step 5b: Once you feel that you have finished audit all the equipments in your house or premise, click Result button to go to the final results page.

2.3 How to use Form Only interface

Step 1: Now, you already know how to take information based on the label from Part 1 of this document. So, you will be needing equipment’s name, its quantity, either Power value or both Current and Voltage value, usage hour per day and usage days per month. Once you have inserted the details, click Add. Sample: Flat Screen TV, 1 unit, Current: 0.3 Ampere, Voltage 240 V, 5 hours per day for 30 days.

Step 2: If you want to add new equipment, just insert the details and click Add again. It’s simple right! If you want to delete a product, just click on the row of record that you want to delete and click the Delete button.

Step 3: Once you feel that you have finished audit all the equipments in your house or premise, click Result button to go to the final results page.

2.4 How to use Form Only interface (for Peak hour and Off Peak hour)

Step 1: For this category of tariff, there is no Form with Graphics interface. Due to the tariffs’ structure that provides peak hour and off peak hour tariff, we have included start time and end time for this calculator to ensure we capture the data correctly.

Step 2: The details you will be needing are the equipment’s name, its quantity, the daily start time and end time, operational days every month, and either Power value or both current and voltage value. Sample: Pump 1, 3 units, Start: 8 am, End: 11 pm, for 25 days, Power: 4000 Watt

Step 3: Once you feel that you have entered all the equipments in your premise, click Result button to go to the final results page.
