What do you do with 5 kW if the oven and stove and car charger are off? I have 3.6 kW (16 A @ 230 V) for everything except cooking and heating (both of which are gas)...
The hot water heater might be on, that's I think 1800 W. We have a clothes washing machine and dishwasher as well, they both get up to 2kW each but only for a few minutes in the cycle. The built-in vacuum system I've never measured, but wouldn't surprise me if it's 1500 to 2000 W, though I don't even think it works right now. I suspect that the microwave oven is in the same power range - 1500 to 2000 W. There's a desktop computer that's sometimes on, it's probably good for 300 Watts with the LCD monitor. Add maybe a dozen light bulbs and phone chargers and a small fish tank pump and the refrigerator, it can get up above 5 kW at times and I sure above that if we're really running three or four appliances at once.
American energy use is really on another level.
