The purpose of the article is to study the influence of the temperature variations on electrical power consumption in the Al- Marj household during year seasons. Recently, load shedding has been occurred in Al-Marj city repeatedly, and that because of many reasons, especially, in winter and summer seasons. One of these causes is temperature variations. Using data from General Electricity Company regarding 8 electrical energy consumers in Al- Marj city [1], and the average daily temperature for the year 2022 according to the website of the Al-Marj Meteorological Station [2]. It is clear that the maximum electrical energy consumed during summer and winter seasons is due to the use of electrical appliances for residential cooling and heating [3][4]. Generally, weather conditions are strongly affected power consumption at homes [5]. The average temperature during the Winter is approximately 12.5 C°, Whereas in the Summer about 26 C°, in both seasons. The demand for electrical energy increases with the rise or fall of the temperature [6]. While in the Spring and Autumn, the wheatear is moderate with average temperature of 16.5 C° and 20 C°, respectively, on the other hand, it is noticed a decrease in electrical power consumption because electrical cooling and heating devices are not usually used in these seasons because of moderate climate.
