Depending on where you live in the USA, that amount of
electrical energy costs between 17¢ and 38¢ per day.
Electricity is sold to consumers thru meters that record kilowatt hours: 1000 watts turned on for 1 hour= 1kwh or kilowatt hour. If cost for 1 kwh = $0.10, then 1500 watts for 1 hour would cost 15 cents. Varies by location of the country. Check your utility bill for exact cost per kwh.
A 1500 watt portable heater uses 1.5 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity for every hour it is in operation. So, if you run the heater for 8 hours, it would consume 12 kWh of electricity.
Operating a 1500 watt heater for one hour consumes 1.5 kWh (1500 watts / 1000). At a rate of 9.1 cents per kWh, the cost to operate the heater for one hour would be 13.65 cents (1.5 kWh * 9.1 cents).
185 watts will use up 185 watt-hours every hour. That is 0.185 kilowatt-hours each hour, costing about £0.03
If the transformer uses 5 watts per hour you need to know what you are paying per 1000 watts from your power company. If you pay lets say $3.00 for 1000 watts then when your transformer burns 1000 watts it cost you $3.00 your cost will be $3.00 for 200 hours run time.

1000 watts per hour is a kilowatt hour and is usually 10 cents

For a general cost ,A 1500 w tank heater will be $103.00 per month. Go to morgransou.com/energy calculator, then click on farm equipment.
Great question! It depends on the size. 20 minutes = 0.66 hours. Small: 800 watts/hour 264 watts in 20 minutes Medium: 1440 watts/hour 475 watts in 20 minutes Large: 2000 watts/hour 666 watts in 20 minutes To get an idea of how much this is, in terms of cost and in comparison with other appliances, you may want to check out the related link.

Watts are units for measuring the rate of energy consumption. So it is meaningless to speak of how many watts something consumes in a length of time. (It would be like asking how many miles per hour a car drives in an hour.)Energy consumption may be measured in kilowatt-hours. A typical microwave consumes 1500 watts, which would be 1.5 kilowatt-hours in one hour.
If the transformer uses 5 watts per hour you need to know what you are paying per 1000 watts from your power company. If you pay lets say $3.00 for 1000 watts then when your transformer burns 1000 watts it cost you $3.00 your cost will be $3.00 for 200 hours run time.
1500 watts is equivalent to 5118 BTU per hour. 1500 watt-hours is equivalent to 5118 BTU.
Look at kilowatt hours on your bill. Each of those is 1000 watts per hour.
To find the cost of using 310 watts of power at 120 volts, you need to know the cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour. Divide the wattage by 1000 to convert it to kilowatts (310 watts = 0.31 kW). Multiply the kilowatts by the number of hours used to get the total kilowatt-hours, then multiply by the cost per kilowatt-hour to get the total cost.
