How much Power does an Electric Ceiling Fan Consume?

The input power required for a ceiling fan is measured in watts. This input power is primarily affected due to 2 factors – Motor & Blade. The type of motor, and its configuration, used in the ceiling fan will determine how much power it uses. In addition, the profile, shape, weight, & length of blades, will result in a certain load on the motor that affects the power consumption of the motor, to rotate the blades at a certain speed.

A regular 1-Star BEE rated ceiling fan consumes about 52 Watt of electricity.
