users through a large & complex networks.
Hard fact about the supply of electric energy is that the units
generated do not match with the units distributed to the
consumers.

A. Permanent technical losses:

· dielectric losses,
· open-circuit losses,
· losses caused by continuous load of measuring elements,
· losses caused by continuous load of control elements.

Computers
Turn off computers when not in use or set the computer to
energy-saving mode.
New appliances
Replace aging appliances with new, more energy-efficient
models when possible; look for Energy Star label designating an
energy-efficient appliance.
Ovens and stove tops
Use microwave instead of oven where possible; food in glass
dishes can be cooked at lower temperature; preheating oven is
usually unnecessary; on the stove top cook with covered pans
and match pan size to the size of the burner.
Refrigerators
Check door seals to make sure there are
no air leaks; clean condenser coils on the back of
the refrigerator; keep refrigerator away from oven
or dishwasher and give the unit breathing.
