Value Added Watcher of an Inefficient Electric Furnace Designed for MCB

PT PLN (Persero) plans to use dedicated miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) to make people using electric stoves truly accessible, according to Fabbi Tumiva, executive director of the Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR).
“Yes, it’s possible (with a special MBC). You just need to lay tracks and use special sensors. But what’s the point? It’s inefficient and puts a new strain on the plant,” Fabby said on Thursday. (21/9).
According to him, if you want to use an electric stove, it is best to increase the electric power to 2200 VA. The customer ID is then flagged in the Comprehensive Social Security Data (DTKS) and continues to receive the subsidy.
Fabi suggested that the government provide subsidized electricity quotas that take into account normal consumption plus additional consumption from the use of electric stoves to prevent wastage of electricity.
He gave an example of using 900 VA of electricity in 2016, which is divided into two types. Electricity is divided into poor and non-poor according to the DTKS. The subsidy rate is IDR 605/kWh for 900 VA poor customers and IDR 1300/kWh for non-poor.
Earlier, PLN President Darmawan Prasojo said that there is no need to increase the electricity consumption of the population when using electric stoves. He said that the use of electric stoves will be of particular importance in order to distinguish between household electricity and electric stoves.
“For the induction cooker, we use a dedicated MCB line that is not connected to the old tariff class electricity consumption model. This is the difference between an induction cooker and domestic consumption,” Darmavan said at a hearing at the DPR Committee VII on Wednesday (April 9). , cited in Detik.
Meanwhile, Dadan Kusdiana, Director of Energy for the Use of Energy and Mineral Resources, said that the złoty will increase electricity for the population so that they can use electric stoves when switching to 3 kg of liquefied petroleum gas.
“Yes (increase in power) for the simultaneous operation of the furnace. Additional capacity is provided by PLN,” Dadan told CNNIndonesia.com.
The government will convert 3 kg of LPG into electric furnaces. Earlier, Great Dan said the government will replace 450VA MCB electricity meters so they can use 1000W electric furnaces when switching to 3kg LPG.
