Quick Reference – Appliance Energy Costs

I was looking for a table that detailed the average appliance power consumption usage and happened upon this Madison Gas and Electric Appliance Energy Costs [PDF File] that provided quite a bit of information. Scroll to page 6 to get to the energy usage charts (starts with gas appliances); page 9 is the start of electric appliances (and actual wattage use). There’s quite a bit of information provided for all sorts of appliances and tools.
