1. Introduction

Government Regulation No. 70 of 2009 concerning Energy Conservation states that energy conservation is a systematic, planned and integrated effort to conserve domestic energy resources and increase the efficiency of their use. Electrical Power is the amount of energy absorbed or produced in a circuit. Energy sources such as electrical voltage will produce electrical power while the load connected to it will absorb the electrical power. In other words, electrical power is the level of energy consumption in an electrical circuit.

The conditions of the community in Maros Regency using electrical energy in their respective homes vary greatly. This is greatly influenced by many factors. These factors are likely to be: (1) knowledge of electrical energy possessed by the occupants of the house, (2) their attitude towards the environment as a whole, (3) local knowledge or local wisdom possessed, (4) environmental conditions that may provide opportunities, and (5) other internal and external factors. The assumptions as described earlier are in line with the behavioral theory by Hines, et al. and Hungerford and Volk which are better known as responsible environmental behavior. In this theory, it is explained that behavior is influenced or shaped by: (a) personal factors, including attitudes and motivations; (b) knowledge of the issue; (c) acting skills, (d) skills in applying knowledge, and (e) other situational factors.

[1]

Research on the behavior of people using electrical energy in Maros Regency has never been conducted. Likewise, the factors that influence have never been studied. Therefore, it is interesting to study. In addition, research on the influence of knowledge of electrical energy, local wisdom, and attitudes towards using electrical energy on the behavior of using electrical energy in Maros Regency has also never been conducted.

The problem in this study is formulated as follows: 1) How is the behavior of the community using electrical energy in their respective homes in Maros Regency? 2) How is the knowledge of electrical energy, local wisdom, and attitudes towards the environment of the community in Maros Regency? 3) Do knowledge of electrical energy, local wisdom, and attitudes towards the environment, individually and collectively influence the behavior of the community using electrical energy in their respective homes in Maros Regency?

The objectives of the study are as follows: 1) To determine the behavior of the community using electrical energy in their respective homes in Maros Regency. 2) To determine the knowledge of electrical energy, local wisdom, and attitudes towards the environment of the community in Maros Regency. 3) To determine the influence of knowledge of electrical energy, local wisdom, and attitudes towards the environment, individually and collectively on the behavior of the community using electrical energy in their respective homes in Maros Regency.

2. Literature Review

Notoatmodjo states that behavior is an activity or activity of the organism concerned, which can be observed directly or indirectly

[2]

. Jiang states that behavior is an individual's action or reflection caused by psychological aspects, such as knowledge, perception, intention, desire and attitude.

[3]

Furthermore, it is said that behavior is influenced by internal and external factors. Internal factors are: knowledge, attitude, motivation, and concern. External factors are: family environment, social conditions, local wisdom, and culture.

Notoatmodjo and Kusrini basically state that knowledge is memory or what is known about materials that have been studied which are based on scientific reasoning.

[4]

Soekanto states that knowledge is an impression in the human mind as a result of using the five senses.

[5]

Furthermore, Notoatmodjo states that knowledge consists of three components, namely: cognitive, affective and psychomotor components

[2]

. Sartini basically state that local wisdom is a local advantage that is based on values, norms, ethics, knowledge, technology, and behavior owned by a community group and traditionally institutionalized which is used to overcome life and living problems

[6]

. Marfai states that one of the characteristics of local wisdom is being able to survive against outside culture

[7]

. Abu Ahmadi basically states that attitude is a tendency to respond and behave in a certain way towards certain objects

[8]

. Azwar and Mar'at state that the components of attitude consist of: (a) cognitive components related to beliefs, ideas, and concepts, (b) affective components concerning a person's emotional life, and (c) conation components which are tendencies.

[9, 10]

In Government Regulation Number 70 of concerning Energy Conservation, it is stated that energy conservation is a systematic, planned and integrated effort to conserve domestic energy resources and increase the efficiency of their use.

[11]

Electrical Power is the amount of energy absorbed or produced in a circuit. Energy sources such as electrical voltage will produce electrical power while the load connected to it will absorb the electrical power. In other words, electrical power is the level of energy consumption in an electrical circuit (http:/teknikelektronika.com/ Muhammad Ardi states that a house is part of a settlement which is an environment where humans live to carry out life which is equipped with social, economic, cultural, electricity, roads, and other service infrastructure and is a subsystem of the city as a whole

[12]

. In Law No. 4 of it is stated that a house is a building that functions as a place to live or a residence and a means of fostering a family.

[13]

Muhammad Ardi stated that a house is a place of residence that meets the requirements for a decent life. Furthermore, Muhammad Ardi stated that a house is a place for humans to live, carry out the process of socialization, interact socially and introduce culture.

[12]

Law No. 32 of concerning Environmental Protection and Management states that the environment is a unity of space, and all objects, power, conditions and living things, including humans and their behavior that affect the continuity of life and the welfare of humans and other living things.

[14]

Soerjani, et al. stated that the environment is a life system where there is human intervention in the ecosystem order.
