Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation / Power consumption measurement
Swedish term or phrase: brukstidsmätning
Electricity consumption measurement.
Example: Med brukstidsmätning menas förbrukning som saknar energimätning och där energivärdena beräknas baserat på den tid som förbrukningen är inkopplad (brukstid).

förbrukning = consumption, brukstid = lifetime/shelf life measurement (Gullberg); how would this be translated in (preferably UK) English, please?
Client-supplied glossary says I am to use 'consumption' for 'förbrukning' (which is what I would expect anyway, so does this affect 'bruk' in 'brukstid'?
Advice appreciated!
