Thanks,
SIMPLE ..... JUST use...... Amps (times) Volts divided by 1000. Take that sum (times ) your cost of elec. per kilowatt hour.....OK..Got it???? NOW.....That sum is the cost, in dollars and cents, to run your pump per hour...SO FAR..so good???...Then MULTIPLY that sum (times) the number of hours you will run the pump..That is the Daily Cost.. Phewwwww.. NOW ..Multiply that times 30 for your monthly cost..............
