My Electricity bill


An electric bill is a bill for the consumption of electric energy

April 2017) Electricity is the presence and flow of electric charge. Its best-known form is the flow of electrons through conductors such as copper wires. Electricity is a form of energy that comes in positive and negative forms, that occur naturally (as in lightning), or is produced (as in generator).

Calculate Electricity Consumption - 4 Easy Steps

1.    Step. Watts Per Day. To calculate energy consumption costs, simply multiply the unit's wattage by the number of hours you use it to find the number of watt-hours consumed each day. ...

2.    Step. Convert to Kilowatts. ...

3.    Step. Usage Over a Month Period. ...

4.    Step. Figuring Out the Cost

Electrical system design is the design of electrical systems. This can be as simple as a flashlight cell connected through two wires to a light bulb or as involved as the space shuttle. Electrical systems are groups of electrical components connected to carry out some operation

If load is more then supply is three phase and thus fixed charges are more. Utilities also charge more fixed cost for incremental connected load. Below is a screenshot from Reliance Energy bill in Mumbai: Units Consumed: Units consumed is the number of kWh (Killo-Watt-Hour) consumed in a month.



Total Connected Load (TCL) is the mechanical and electrical load (in kW) that will be connected (or to consumed) for that area. The Maximum Demand (MD) is the total kW that contributes the total power used in one time after applying the diversity factor based on the Total Connected Load

Using the cost of one unit of electricity based on our current average standard tariff (19.87p per kWh* which means 1000 watts or one kilowatt (1 kW) of power expended for one hour (1 h) of time), we've worked out how much that's roughly costing you.

Definition of connected load. : the total electric power-consuming rating of all devices (as lamps or motors) connected to a distribution system

Maximum demand register (kW or kVA). This is the maximum power value, usually the average of 15 minutes, reached during the billing period (this average time may vary depending on the country). Once the value is higher than the contracted power, the customer will pay a penalty on the electricity bill

So when this Light Bulb is continuously working for 1 hour, it will consume 100 Watt-hour of energy (100 Watts * 1 hour). when it is continously glowing for 10 hours then it would have consumed 100 watts* 10 hours i.e. 1000 Watt-hours which means 1 kWh(kilo watt hour) or 1 unit of electrical energy (electricity)

Demand factor is the ratio of the sum of the maximum demand of a system (or part of a system) to the total connected load on the system (or part of the system) under consideration. Demand factor is always less than one

Connected load for electricity is similar to bandwidth and is the maximum amount of wattage that is allocated to a house. ... Connected load is also mentioned as sanctioned load or just load (or भार in hindi) on electricity bills

Customer Charge - A monthly basic distribution charge to cover costs for billing, meter reading, equipment, maintenance, and advanced metering when in use. ... Transmission Charge - Charges for moving high voltage electricity from a generation facility to the distribution lines of an electric distribution company

MD is measured in Kilowatt (kW). It is the highest level of electrical demand monitored in a particular period usually for a month period. Maximum Demand for any month shall be deemed to be twice the largest number of kilowatt-hours (kWh) supplied during any consecutive thirty minutes in that month

The utilization factor or use factor is the ratio of the time that a piece of equipment is in use to the total time that it could be in use. It is often averaged over time in the definition such that the ratio becomes the amount of energy used divided by the maximum possible to be used

High tension or HT supply is applicable for bulk power purchasers who need 11 kilo-Volts or above. Most small consumers of electricity like individual houses, shops, small offices and smaller manufacturing units get their electricity on LT connection

In other words, demand, measured in kilowatts (kW), is the maximum rate of electricity consumption over a 15 or 30 minute billing interval, as defined by your utility. An easy analogy that is used to think of the difference between demand and consumption is with light bulbs

The (unofficial) term diversity, as distinguished from diversity factor refers to the percent of time available that a machine, piece of equipment, or facility has its maximum or nominal load or demand (a 70% diversity means that the device in question operates at its nominal or maximum load level 70% of the time that

The performance of a PV power plant is often denominated by a metric called the capacity utilisation factor. It is the ratio of the actual output from a solar plant over the year to the maximum possible output from it for a year under ideal conditions. Capacity utilisation factor is usually expressed in percentage

In electrical engineering the load factor is defined as the average load divided by the peak load in a specified time period. ... An example, using a large commercial electrical bill: peak demand =436 kW. use =57200 kWh. number of days in billing cycle =30 d

Explanation of Demand Charges. Depending on how they use electricity, electric utility customers are charged for different electric services. Along with a basic customer charge – which is a set fee paid monthly or seasonally – most customers pay for the energy they use (measured in kilowatt-hours, abbreviated kWh



Electronic bill payment is a feature of online, mobile and telephone banking, similar in its effect to a giro, allowing a customer of a financial institution to transfer money from their transaction or credit card account to a creditor or vendor such as a public utility, department store or an individual to be credited

My Energy Sector

The organization of the electrical sector of a country or region varies depending on the economic system of the country. In some places, all electric power generation, transmission and distribution is provided by a government controlled organization. Other regions have private or investor-owned utility companies, city or municipally owned companies, cooperative companies owned by their own customers, or combinations. Generation, transmission and distribution may be offered by a single company, or different organizations may provide each of these portions of the system India's power sector is one of the most diversified in the world. Sources of power generation range from conventional sources such as coal, lignite, natural gas, oil, hydro and nuclear power to viable non-conventional sources such as wind, solar, and agricultural and domestic waste The electric power industry is commonly split up into four processes. These are electricity generation such as a power stati

My Emergency Evacuation plan

Emergency evacuation is the urgent immediate egress or escape of people away from an area that contains an imminent threat, an on-going threat or a hazard to lives or property. Examples range from the small scale evacuation of a building due to a storm or fire to the large scale evacuation of a city because of a flood, bombardment or approaching weather system . In situations involving hazardous materials or possible contamination , evacuees may be decontaminated prior to being transported out of the contaminated area Emergency evacuation plans are developed to ensure the safest and most efficient evacuation time of all expected residents of a structure, city, or region. A benchmark "evacuation time" for different hazards and conditions is established. These benchmarks can be established through using best practices, regulations, or using simulations , such as modeling the flow of people in a building, to determine the benchmark. Proper planning will use multip

My Travel and Early time

Travel is the movement of people between relatively distant geographical locations , and can involve travel by foot , bicycle , automobile , train , boat , bus , airplane , or other means, with or without luggage, and can be one way or round trip. Travel can also include relatively short stays between successive movements A travel documentary is a documentary film , television program , or online series that describes travel in general or tourist attractions without recommending particular package deals or tour operators. A travelogue film is an early type of travel documentary, serving as an exploratory ethnographic film . The genre has been represented by television shows such as Across the Seven Seas , which showcased travelogues produced by third parties, and by occasional itinerant presentations of travelogues in theaters and other venues A horse and buggy (in American English ) or horse and carriage (in British English and American English ) refers to a
